The first half of his autobiography is a good read on how to make yorself a more acomplished person. Later on, though, he becomes too boastful.

If BENJAMIN FRANKLIN isn't entitled to boast, I don't know who is.

(Note: I've read his autobiography a couple times and don't think any of it was inappropriately boastful.)

Thomas Jefferson is allowed to boast, but Franklin didn't build his own house.

Jefferson's inventions are mostly one-offs, such as his house. Franklin's inventions scaled.
