Book Reviews of Rich Dad, Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money--That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!
Book Review: Some provocative and commonsense ideas about money...
Summary: 5 Stars
Robert is a multi-millionaire, not an English major (which is why he IS a millionaire). With this in mind, you need to overlook such errors as "perspective clients" (as opposed to "prospective clients"). He raises some provocative issues such as questioning the efficacy of material taught in schools for preparing students for success, and the idea that a home is generally one's biggest liability rather than one's biggest asset.
It has radically changed my spending and investing habits. Would also recommend many of the other authors quoted in the book.
Book Review: This book should be manditory reading for our kids !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
"Why climb the ladder to success when you can own the ladder" Every person, regardless of age, should read this easy to understand financial eye-opener. All of the things that we "assume" about money and net worth are addressed in this remarkable book. I can't wait for the sequel.Book Review: Want to get out of the RAT RACE? This book's for you
Summary: 5 Stars
Want to get out of the Rat Race and into the Fast Track? Then this book is a must for you, if you want to accomplish your goal. Robert Kiyosaki shows how we must change our thinking if we ever intend to be financially free. He teaches that we must first understand what are the real assets and liabilities in our lives. More importantly, he also teaches what you must do to get onto the Fast Track (you will learn that cash is not really king but actually CASHFLOW IS KING). Once I read this book and had an opportunity to meet Mr. Kiyosaki, I realized that I needed to adjust my paradigm. He is not just someone who wrote a book about a subject he knew something about, he is a teacher giving over his knowledge and experience so you can actually apply them in your own life.Also, after reading this book I purchased Mr. Kiyosaki's game CASHFLOW, this game takes what you learned in the book and teaches you how to put it into practice, so you can actually go out into the real world and become financially free. Play the game often and watch how your thought process will completely change for the better.
Do yourself a favor, no do your children a favor, buy this book, buy this game use them over and over again and get out of the Rat Race and into Financial Freedom.
Book Review: An absolute must for parents and teachers.
Summary: 5 Stars
As a Business person and high school teacher I've found it perplexing as to how to explain to the present generation in our schools what is happening to the world of work and money. The author makes it all so very clear. Three of my senior business maths class have ordered the book - with me having read a just a few paragraphs to them from it - they say they have learned more in the last few lessons about money than in their whole school career so far. I wish some enlightened teacher had read it when I was at school. Get it yourself and a copy for your school library.Book Review: Sensible and Sound
Summary: 5 Stars
Mr. Kiyosaki has written a simple, easy-to-read text that delivers a sensible and sound approach to building financial security. I liked the fact that he did not espouse greed and a "win at all costs" attitude as so many other books of this genre advocate. A friend of mind lent me this book and after reading it cover to cover in a couple of days, I purchased my own copy. I would highly recommend it to anyone. You'll be a wiser person for it!
