Too many people are much more interested in the quick-hitting scheme, or trying to find a short-cut to real wealth. As Kiyosaki has preached over and over again, one has to truly under the process of how money works be...more

Very interesting. Not usually the kind of book I read - recommended by some patrons. Not crazy about the get-rich language - although that's the audience for this book. Lots of common sense advice, conversational tone, focused on the US so I'm not sure if some things are applicable to Canada.



Things I got out of it:



Reduce the amount of taxes you pay on savings.

Watch out for multiple recurring hidden fees in mutual funds.



Financial IQ: make more money, protect your money, budget your money, leve...more

I got a lot out of this book that I immediately put into action. Some of the long lasting effects this book has had on me are the ways I view my process of handling money. The steps are real simple and anyone can apply them as you go through the cycle of steps or perhaps work on one step and build it up it will increase your knowledge of money and your ability to grow your money. I know that all sounds a bit general but so was the book. The point is the basic and game plan were amazing and from ...more

This is the second Rich Dad books that I have read. They are pretty easy reading and while some ideas are new to me, I see true principles being applied to learn about finances. It isn't in how much money you have but how much knowledge you gain...I ordered the Kids Cashflow game and plan on getting the adult versions at some point as well.

This book is a good consolidation, plus new add-ons, on Robert’s earlier sharing on financial education. This is a good starting read for readers who are never exposed to Robert’s works, and a good reflection tool for those RDPD believers. Recommended.
Aviantara
its a good book, I think this is the conclusion book for all Rich Dad series. you can got to http://abprasbuk.blogspot.com to read my review on Indonesian language
Andy Baird
Has some good solid information about the economy and the state of US financial crisis but for the most part just reinforces the basics that you need to educate yourself so that you can make the right choices when investing and not rely on someone else that may not have your best interests at heart.

Looks like a good read. I have started three "Cash-Flow" game clubs and am interested in helping youth gain more financial knowledge and skills.
Mario Cahyadi
This is a great book that i recommended all of you to read. A story that never told on your school that can improve your financial iq.

A lot like Kiyosaki's other financial-related books. That's not a bad thing so much as it is positive reinforcement of the ideas and themes that filter through the majority of his writing. Recommended for folks who want to make financial changes or think about their finances in a different way.
Chia Chin
The best chapters for me were Chapters 9,10 & the Afterword. Brings to light simply & clearly what's happening to the world economy today.
Erik Similkier
This is one of many (audio) books I listen to over and over again while at my J.O.B.

Know how to use your brain and use it wisely to improve your financial situation.

OK book. I personally don't agree with all of it, though.

I like his books. It is the second one I have read.

It's not a difficult book to read, and he doesn't bore you with a bunch of statistics. Instead he uses his life experiences and tries to get you to change your mindset on how to work with your own financial situation. It does have some informative passages and a number of good anecdotes. One part I really liked is how he mentioned that he tithes regularly, alluding to the fact that there isn't any other partner he knows who asks for just 10%.

Simple and essential info you need to know if you want to make it financially in the real world. No joke. I wish they taught some of this stuff in highschool....I'm in no hurry to incur college debt...best to combat it with the valuable information from this book!

This book discusses the state of the dollar and why it might be best to own assets that bring in income than hold on to currency that is depreciating in value. It suggests that the best way to start on a road to financial freedom is to do some homework, and try.

Different philosophy than anything I've been taught about personal financial management. Really enjoyed this book but very conscious of fact that this guy makes $$ on his products (CDs, game, seminars, etc.). Donald Trump wrote the Forward.

His writing is sub-par, he doesn't really give you any details, and he literally regurgitates the same stuff over and over and over again, but I give it a thumbs-up because the take home message is always solid.

robert t kiyosaki is really2 famous in finance management. his book entitled 'rich dad poor dad' is advised by my sister. it gonna be my next book after this one.
James Knowles
First Kiyosaki book in years that was really worth the read. I'll add it to "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" and "Cashflow Quadrant" as solid "read" recommendations.

So far, of the Rich Dad Poor Dad books, this is my favorite. It's more specific and has much more defined techniques and skills to help you increase your knowledge.
Lindsey
Very useful, but considerable repetition of his earlier works. Don't attempt without some understanding of what he does in his other financial books.

Amazing Views and practical advice....easy learn!
