princesscai08 's review for:

Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert T. Kiyosaki

4.0

---

This book really opened my eyes and changed my thinking about how the rich get rich and stay rich. It has definitely had an impact on how I think about my finances. The information is presented in a clear and concise format with diagrams and easy to read language. This is a huge plus for those who are not great at reading about money and finances. Like me.

Kiyosaki outlines how the education system in America (and I believe in Australia) fails to teach our future generations about finances. I completely agree with his point of view and have been of the opinion that the education systems set people up to fail and not succeed. We need to be teaching our children how to survive in the real world and we are definitely not doing this.

You need an open mind to read this book. You need to be open to the advice, to the alternative methods that you may not have been taught before. You need to really want to break away from the paycheck-to-paycheck mentality. You need to be open to a new mentality and way of thinking. You need to really want something more.

My recommendation: A great book for those with an open mind.
