Hey there all, I recently completed reading Rich Dad Poor Dad: What The Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!. Let me tell you that this book has been in my peripheral vision for quite some time. Or at least the title of it has been! I finally read it and found that it completely fits in my current learning cycle, so there was much that I was able to readily see and almost immediately able to apply. First off I will preface this with a fact that the title always sounded to me like it was how to transform yourself from a poor dad to a rich dad. This was not so. Although it has the information within to create that transformation, at least if you choose to apply some fo the principles, and of course in theory! Know this, though, this is not a rags to riches overnight book. It is a journey over a fair span of a lifetime. Robert T. Kiyasaki tells his tale as a young man growing up in Hawaii, his paternal father being a well-educated man who throughout this book always seems to be on the verge of monetary disaster, even though he followed in seemingly appropriate steps required to climb the ladder to success. His adopted father had the school education of 8th grade; what his adopted father had was a key understanding of finance, of assets, debits, expenses etcetera and had over time become incredibly wealthy. Now how Robert came to adopt rich dad is by way of Rich Dad's son Mike. The two of them were close friends and at a young age (3rd grade). They had made the decision that they would like to become rich. The wanted to make money. Which is what they quite literally did attempt to do. They went around and collected empty toothpaste tubes, created a cast, and began to mint their own nickels. Rich dad saw this and while found the overall situation to be humorous, he informed them of the imposing legalities of their situation and offered to have them stop by his office to work for him. Initially, the boys worked for him for a very low wage, 10c an hour! After some time, Rober becomes fed up and demands a raise or else he is going to quit. Whereby rich dad imparts a critical lesson: Most people will work for the money and if they don't receive the respect or monetary wage that they feel is appropriate, they will go elsewhere. However, once they do so, they find themselves in the same situation. They were more than likely going to accept a paycheck knowing that they will struggle financially. Some may even take a second job, working harder and still accepting a measly gain. Robert asks "So what will solve the problem?" Rich dad points to his head and says "This stuff between your ears." All of this is distilled into what Robert calls lesson #1 : "The poor and the middle-class work for money. The rich have money work for them." What's entertaining is that immediately following this even, rich dad has the boys work for him for free! This imparted the lesson that you work to gain knowledge, not necessarily money AKA the rich don't work for money. He then proceeds to illustrate in the book through a few diagrams of how the rich and poor view their money in a cash flow pattern and how the poor view the job as income and expenses as food, shelter, transport, etc, neglecting the assets and liabilities columns. The middle class is fairly similar with income being received for their job, however, they do tend to recognize the liabilities column. Where the rich differ is that they have an assets column in which you will find stocks, bonds, real estate and intellectual property which will provide them with their income, which they continue to invest into more assets. Assets create wealth. Seems like a fairly simple formula. The major takeaway here is not so much that assets create wealth, it's how to identify an asset, that little gem didn't really seem to present itself clearly while reading, but it is there nonetheless! These views and philosophies are fully fleshed out in the remainder of the book, denoting that most or many will fall prey to the ongoing rat race whereby they build a substantial amount of debt through poor financial education and ultimately have to work in order to stay the course. Rarely being able to lift above and see a way out. Robert offers some alternative views on how we are taught to view finances, and not everyone may agree nor may follow his advice. He does suggest that if you are not willing to take risks and prefer to follow another route, that you should begin at a very young age to invest. It may take a while longer to create a fortune for yourself, however, it is the recommended way! I don't think that you can look anywhere in the financial world and that same advice is not given! While this touches on the surface of what is in this book, I do hope that it whets your appetite to continue to read even if it is to teach your children or others about financial literacy. Overall the book was a simple read with an easy flowing storytelling style, and it filled my own head with plenty of food for thought! On a scale of Rich Dad to Poor Dad, I found this to be a fairly enrichening read!

This is a great book and more importantly the advice actually works when consistently applied. Robert's advice helped me start two small businesses and become financially free (not rich, but free form needing a job) when I was around 26 yrs old. I had an excellent lifestyle but screwed it up through lack of self-discipline and financial IQ. I have since went back into the workforce(rat-race) and am rebuilding my asset column and moving towards financial freedom once again. ***On to the book*** RichDad PoorDad is about the financial advice the author was given from his biological dad which he calls is poor dad and his best friend's dad which he calls his rich dad. The core of the book centers around the 6 Lessons of the Rich which are as follows: Lesson #1 - The rich don't work for money The poor and the middle class work for money the rich have money work for them. Lesson #2 - Why teach financial literacy? If you want to be rich you need to be financially literate. Lesson #3 - Mind your own business The rich focus on acquiring income producing assets. KEEP your day job but focus on building your personal investment portfolio (what the author calls minding your own business) Lesson #4 - The history of taxes and corporations The rich understand and take advantage of the tax benefits of having a corporation. Lesson #5 - The rich invent money Train your mind to make (or invent) money instead of work for it. Great opportunities are seen with the mind not your eyes. Lesson #6 - Work to learn-Don't work for money Work more for what you will learn then what you will earn. Focus on acquiring the skills you need for your future success in the present. Don't get stuck complacent in the rat race. After these six lessons Robert spends the rest of the time covering pitfalls to avoid and providing practical tips on getting started. I have tons of notes from this book but a few practical ideas stood out to me, I even taped them on my wall at home. 1. "Poor people have poor habits. A common poor habit is innocently called "Dipping into Savings." The rich know that savings are only used to create more money not to pay bills." ***Yes, have an emergency savings account for unexpected bills and the like but also have a financial freedom account that you save money from each paycheck specifically to create more wealth NEVER to be used for any other expenditure.**** 2. "Financially, with every dollar we get in our hands, we hold the power to choose our future to be rich, poor or middle class. Our spending habits reflect who we are. Poor people simply have poor spending habits." 3. "Keep your day job but focus on building the asset column." Sorry for the long review but this little 10.00 book has literally changed my philosophy about money, made me thousands of dollars and more importantly will be the catalyst for breaking the cycle of poverty in my family forever as I pass the principles down to my kids. I recommend the book along with RichDad PoorDad part 2 which is titled CashFlow Quadrant. Best wishes on your journey to freedom!
