Book about advice author got from 2 men in his life
- His real Poor Dad who was highly educated man who never seemed to have enough money
- His friends Dad who was rich and taught him valuable lessons about handling money.

Packed full of advice on how to think differently about money and getting it to work for you rather than you work for money. This is through smart real estate purchases and investments.

A very easy to read book that I'll need to read a few times to actually take some action.

Gave some good advice but for someone who has never been taught anything about money, it would have been helpful for more tactics and how tos and what you should do if you want to go into real estate or stocks. He makes it sound so easy just buying a house without a lot of money. It was also redundant. The summary sections were too much.

Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert’s story of growing up with two dads — his real father and the father of his best friend, his rich dad — and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing. The book explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to be rich and explains the difference between working for money and having your money work for you.*An interesting fact, the story of the 2 dads is completely made up and was created just to make the point.

My Take: It seems to me that Mr. Kiyosaki appears to teach people to be rather greedy. I am not a fan of this approach and prefer the “do what is best for the community and everyone does better”. My takeaway form the book is you will do much better in life if you work for yourself and not for someone else. This is why I have it on my recommended book list.

I higly recommend this book to everyone who wants to learn about finances. It could be true that is not very specific about his topics, but that's not the purpose of this book. This book wants you to understand the rat race, why it's important to scape from that, and how.

3.5 stars
It is a bit repetitive and boring at times but it has some really good point and definitely changed a lot of my perspectives on money and work.
