Viena is tu knygu, kur autorius dalinasi savo gyvenimo ismintimi: "Kaip as sunkiai dirbau, kad tapti turtingu, bet veliau sugalvojau, kad paprasciau parasyti apie tai knyga, ir parduoti 10mln. kopiju zmonems, kurie tokie naivus, kaip ir as kazkada buvau".
Is tikruju, sitos knygos visai nerekomenduociau - jeigu ketini ja skaityti, kaip iprastai, dali po dalies. Kokia nauda galima gauti is jos - greitai prabegti per visa knyga, ir surinkti idomias mintis ir "pripumpuoti" savo nora gyventi geriau, t...more

My second of the Rich dad series.. yes i skipped the cashflow and investing books that came before this... only because my library was out of those copies. Rich dad has some valid points and it is very most liked by myself. I did find myself getting bored and annoyed a little when it takes about 20+ pages to get one single point across. Sometimes i felt like i must be stupid to have to be told the same thing over and over and over and over and over again. it's a valuable concept of Context v.s....more

I think this is the fourth book in the Rich Dad's series. This book is about leverage and the second book, Cash flow Quadrant, is about cash flow aspect, while his third book is about investing. This book is about the ultimate investor tool which is leverage. I learned about the importance of the leverage of one's words. What one says might become true. "Your words are flesh."

A must read book for anyone who wants to find the ultimate reason to retire young and retire rich and to rediscover your...more

I thought Kiyosaki had some good ideas in Rich Dad Poor Dad, so when this book's title caught my eye, I thought it'd be worth a read. It definitely was! Kiyosaki admits that he's not the best writer, and I agree, but he has a compelling way of teaching important business and financial lessons through stories about his past.

He shamelessly plugs his books, board games, and website, but it works; he sells tons of them, and I put several more of his books on my to-read list.

The book's main point is...more

Of all the RICH DAD books this is my most favorite.
Why? Simply because we've got someone who can walk the talk, telling us that most of the resistance we experience in making money is our own limitations.

It didn't make sense when I was working a day job. Sounded like a bunch of huey, really, but, once I started down the entrepreneurial path, that all changed.

I'm in total agreement. Most of the limitations Americans experience with wealth is all in their heads.

That said, for those willing to...more

I was skeptical from the start about reading a book entitled "Retire Young, Retire Rich" with a glossy picture of author Kiyosaki dressed in Steve Jobs black and then again pictured on the back of the book enjoying the rich life entitled..free at last (Kiyosaki and Wife pictured riding horses on Fiji in the sun wind tustling their hair with the coast line in the background.)

Regardless, Kiyosaki has a few excellent overarching principles that I agree with.

1) Leverage your money. Make your money...more

I had to read this book twice. A lot of people may not like this book because it's not a "how-to." Through this book, I was able to write two blogs (Complacency & Talents as well as Complacency & Hebrew Slaves). This book encourages you to tap into your God-given ability.

The underlying message in this book is simply this: If we would focus on our God-given assignments and not compete, you will actually be rich (physical or spiritual).

Buku ini berfokus mengajak pembaca untuk mengubah/mengupdate mindset terkait kehidupan finansial pribadi. Untuk sukses dalam sektor finansial, yang dibutuhkan bukan pendidikan akademik atau IQ yang tinggi. Pun bukan uang. Hal-hal tersebut tadi memang berpengaruh tetapi sebagai pendukung.

Pertama sekali dan paling utama, yang harus kita lakukan agar sukses dalam finansial adalah mengubah konteks kita terkait kehidupan finansial tadi. Konteks adalah realitas. Jika seseorang mengatakan, 'saya tidak...more

Very good content, clear and specific, and introduces useful points of view. Very useful book for anyone who will take action, and anyone interested in becoming rich. The only flaw was that it is a bit repetitive, and could have been smaller if it didn't keep repeating things from previous chapters and previous books. Another way to look at it, though, is that the repetion reinforces important bits of the message.

A great book about LEVERAGE. If you leverage your efforts, you can achieve far greater results. It details a mindset that can help you fulfill your goals.
Jaclyn
What an inspiring book! I listened to this book on audio, like I did the original Rich Dad, Poor Dad, and I am on my second listen through. There is so much good information in this book that if used carefully, could make a huge difference in people's lives. I sure intend to let it make a difference in mine! What I learned most from this book: it all starts with expanding your reality - opening your mind to the possibilities, taking steps to educate yourself (like reading this book), and surroun...more

Shelves: finance-etc
Like Rich Dad, Poor Dad; this book also gives a good overview towards financial education; however, doesn't actually say how to get it. The author promotes real estate investments etc. What worked for him will not blindly work for others (else everyone would have been rich); however, the author makes it sound simple, which could be a motivator / confidence booster for the readers.
For those who have no clue about finance and are procrastinating, should surely read at least one of Robert Kiyosaki...more

Very good book on pointing out the right direction in getting the financial education you need.
This book is filled with lot's of useful tips and it's organized in a very good way.
Don't confuse this for a check-list or an instruction guide to your desires. Here you'll find the right references and the right direction, but it's up to you to learn a lot more before becoming succesful.

Another good book by Kiyosaki. Much of what he says is on point with what he has stated previously, and I think I've read this before, so overall nothing new to me. But the motivation and the push, and the kick-in-the-pants reminder on changing your perspective and how you look at the world, were all excellent points that helped encourage me to take action on my goals.

isinya tidak terlalu mengejutkan untuk yg pernah membaca buku2nya yg sebelumnya; stok lama bumbu baru. seperti yg kiyosaki nyatakan sendiri, dia memang tidak terlalu pandai menulis, ^^ kurang terstruktur dengan rapi, namun bukan berarti buruk. cukup menambah semangat untuk merencanakan keuangan dg baik.

The book contains a lot of useful information related to way of thinking that you need to follow if you want to retire young and rich. It also has some info for books, audio cds that you should read/listen on a way to becoming rich. I was very excited and I read the book just for few days.

Although, I love the basic idea of this book, but where it falls short is substance. The book raises some great ideas and concepts, but fails miserably in developing those ideas and concepts into something that could be actionable or practical. Lack of detail killed this book for me.

Another one Pops picked up for me at the East Lansing Public Library 'for sale' rack.

As I'm running low on otherwise interesting literature I figured I'd start getting through some of these side projects in order to up the ante when I finally get around to selling my stack of undesireables.

Personally, the book looks like it was once a college textbook for a low level finance class and when the professor was fired after a year the school refused to buy back the book so some lowly student held on...more

The limit is what we decide based on our reality. Decide your exit strategy first, then fill in the rest of the plan. Dare to dream with an open positive mind and then make it happen. If you want to be average, do what the average person does. The statistics are in the book.

Favorite line: "The word becommeth flesh." Say it and it will happen, good or bad. Perhaps it is out of context a bit, but the point is that if you always say you will not have enough and that you will be poor, you will be ri...more

One good book that taught me about what the meaning of a lever. Apparently we have a lot of levers to achieve financial freedom. Unfortunately many of the levers were never realized and never taught in schools
Waseem
pretty the same info...but nevertheless a great reminder of Roberts teachings and work...so highly recommended for any rich dad fan

You don't need to really read that one, the 1st 2 are enough. However, this one together with the rest of the series are really worthy insightful & share great experiences…

Just more of the same from Mr Kiyosaki. This is simply a rehashing of earlier books. The sole purpose of this one is to line the author's pockets still further.
Kaloyan K.
Nice read, although it repeats a lot of the stuff from the other "Rich Dad" books, and just shifts the focus and emphasizes more on the retirement aspect.
Amy Casner
I have listened to many of Robert Kiyosaki's cds over the years but this book really helped me to understand what he was saying. It is put forward in words that are easy for the new learner to read. Mr. Kiyosaki states that he isn't a writer but sometimes writers forget that thier targeted audience doesn't know all the rules about writing so without knowing it Mr. Kiyosaki actually is a better writer than many other financal writers in that he writes for the under class.

I have started to put ma...more
