Daniel,
There are a lot of good concepts in this book. I like the idea that your success depends on you and that you must use your mind to solve your problems rather than sit around blaming everyone else for taking advantage of you. I have learned from sad experience this is an easy trap to fall into. I thought the author came across with the attitude that wealth was the ultimate goal in life. I left feeling like he was measuring success in life in dollars and assests. A good read but I guess his methods of seeking weath are just a bit too aggressive for my taste.

I do not agree with Kiyosaki on a lot of things. When it comes down to it I like his opinion that if you want to be financially independent you need to make the decision. But at the same time you must remember that if that is your only focus in life then you will end up losing much much more. The same principle that I like from this book is also in the Five Lessons and the Richest Man in Babylon as well. However, for the sheer storytelling (which is all fiction by the way) I liked this book as a good book to get you thinking about what you are doing with your finances.
