Rich Dad Poor Dad
by Robery Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter
This is the first in the series of life changing books for you to invest in.
There’s been many books written on the topics of finance, investments and money. No book will open your eyes to realities of the financial world more than Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robery Kiyosaki - the man they call the millionaire teacher.
Based on Roberts life it takes you from his earliest attempts at quite literally “making” money to his first store in his parents basement and then on to his future success in property and elsewhere.
This book deviates from the normal lessons taught elsewhere. As a matter of fact Robert has attracted a lot of attention for teaching “against the grain” of what is considered to be correct.
There are a few key lessons that Robert teaches
1. Why education doesn’t mean financial success. How many highly educated poor people do you know? How many peoplw with honors degrees do you know who are unemployed?
2. Paying yourself first. Learning that you need to be invested in as much as you need to pay all the bills.
3. High paying jobs don’t make you rich. In fact normally quite the opposite.
4. Learning to make money work for you instead of you working for money. It’s simple principle but it will change how you view your financial life.
This book was recommended to me by a business friend of mine. I was expecting the same old thing. This book is anything but the same old thing. Highly, highly recommended. So good as a matter of fact that even writing about it has made me start reading it again.
