Are You Likely to
Inherit Money?
Almost any one can earn money. The most
difficult part seems to be the keeping of it.
This is particularly true when it is received in
large sums as by inheritance. The handling of
a large, amount of money, so that it will not
diminish in principal, is as involved as the con
duct of a business.
Any one who' expects to inherit money
should know how to invest it. A course in
Business Administration at Peirce School will
teach you this. It will give a thorough knowl
edge of stocks, bonds and other securities, which
is essential to men or women who expect to
handle money. Besides this, it will give a
broader outlook and a firmer knowledge of thc
world of business as it is. ,
An ounce of preparation is worth a ton of
regret. .
