RICH DAD POOR DAD

RICH DAD POOR DAD 


Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids about Money- -
About the Book :

In Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki goes back to his childhood in Hawaii to explain his philosophy on wealth creation and being successful. The book is written in a very conversational manner and most of the snippets are based on the author’s budding years and his experiences regarding money management.  There were two main influences in Robert Kiyosaki’s life. The first was his real father, an educator who worked hard for a fixed income all his life. He’s the ‘Poor Dad’. The Rich Dad is his biological father’s best friend. A real estate tycoon, he is portrayed as highly successful and assumes the tag of being the ‘Rich Dad’. In the book, the author claims that his rich dad amassed wealth because he looked at income as a way to develop more wealth-creating assets. This attitude, the author states time and again, is the primary difference between the rich and the poor. His biological father on the other hand, spent his income on buying consumer goods that would give him and his family satisfaction. Kiyosaki singles this out as the reason why his ‘Poor Dad’ was never financially independent or secure.About the Author :Robert Kiyosaki is not just an author, he is also a game developer and real estate tycoon. Several of his books have been on the best seller list, and some of these include:
