Wealth Of Nations

I did not enjoy the reading this week. I am less than enthusiastic about anything relating to business. It bores me. But, once I got past my dislike for the subject that Smith was writing about, I found that I actually understood and fully agreed with the points that he was making. The rules that Smith has for business are simple, but also effective. They, at first, seemed almost too simple to me, but I also see why, when put in to practice, they would be so profitable for those using them. Smith's ideas, to me, boiled down to doing what you know and not making more than you can sell, which make complete sense, but also caught me off guard at their simplicity. So, although I did not particularly like the subject of the reading, I did agree with its message.
