Cicero On The Paradox Of The Rich Man

About this episode

<p>In today's audiobook reading, Ryan presents the sixth and final reading of Cicero's<a href="https://dailystoic.com/cicero/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> Stoic Paradoxes</a>. Cicero was considered Rome’s greatest politician, and he has survived as one of history’s most enduring chroniclers of Stoic philosophy and of the Stoics themselves. As Ryan explains in <a href="https://geni.us/LivesOfTheStoics299" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lives of the Stoics</a>, these paradoxes are designed to question commonly held beliefs in order to promote reflection and discussion. With his last paradox, Cicero examines the idea that “only the wise man is rich.”</p><p>💵 Visit <a href="https://dailystoic.com/wealth" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">dailystoic.com/wealth</a> to sign up for The Wealthy Stoic wealth management course today.</p><p>✉️ Sign up for the Daily Stoic email: <a href="http://dailystoic.com/dailyemail" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail</a></p><p>🏛 Check out the <a href="https://store.dailystoic.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Daily Stoic Store</a> for Stoic inspired products, signed books, and more.</p><p>📱 Follow us: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dailystoic/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a>, <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@daily_stoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/dailystoic" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
