There are three principal ways to lose money; wine, women, and engineers. While the first two are more pleasant, the third is by far the more certain.

It isn´t enough for you to love money – it´s also neccessary that money should love you.
Baron Rothchild
It requires a great deal of boldness and a great deal of caution to make a great fortune; and when you have got it, it requires ten times as much to keep it.

When there is blood in the streets, I am buying.
Baron Rothchild
I care not what puppet is placed on the throne of England to rule the Empire. The man that controls Britan´s money supply controls the British empire. And I control the money supply.
Baron Rothchild
Faithfully guard your reputation.
Baron Rothchild
Never have anything to do with an unlucky place, or an unlucky man. I have seen many clever men, very clever men, who had not shoes to their feet. I never act with them. Their advice sounds very well, but they cannot get on themselves; and if they cannot do good to themselves, how can they do good to me?
Baron Rothchild
I believe that money owed by one country to another, or one country to banks, or whatever it is… …it will never be paid back. It could only be paid back by borrowing more, which is the same thing… …it won´t be paid back. The situation is what it is.
Baron Rothchild
The total volume of indebtedness has grown faster or slower, depending on time, but it has never dissapeared… …it has never been contracted. Impossible. What happens is… …as time goes on, currencies go down. Now I´m not talking about the currency of one versus the other. I´m talking of the buying power.
Baron Rothchild
Make few acquaintances.
Baron Rothchild
Sacrifice money rather than principle.
Baron Rothchild
You have to have faith… …if you don´t have faith, you don´t have anything.
