5.0 out of 5 stars Great Insight with Kids Leaving for College
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2013
Love Roberts books and how he relates them to easy understandable language. With having the 1st of 4 kids heading to college I have been immersing myself into the knowledge I need as a parent to help guide them to be successful in whatever that might be. As a parent it is EXTREMLY hard to get your child to think differently about not being an employee. The whole school system is working hard to make sure that they do become employees. My son wants to become a history teacher, and with the current situation and uncertainty about teachers, it really worries me. I then remember in Roberts teachings that your job is your income and investing is your wealth. I have had great success in sharing that thought process with my son. He likes nice things and has a great work ethic so thanks to ALL of Roberts great teachings I see a great future for him.

I am so glad that you wrote this book so my wife can be on board with me as shes reading this now. My wife feels there's security in a job. Shes always been an employee, and thinks thats the right thing to do. It's taken alot of time and effort even through our many successes of owning businesses and rental real estate. She does finally see the rewards from the effort. Also she has had alot of friends whom can't find work even after getting college degrees. Alot of her co-workers have $10's of thousands of college debt making only $12-14 an hour, because thats all they can get. I am so glad that you help guide and educate us that there is another way. Financial education is so important for the world right now with everything thats going on. Please keep the books coming as I am one of your biggest fans...

5.0 out of 5 stars Think deeply about infinity return!!
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2013
It is true that majority of financial wisdoms Robert shared in the book
were already discussed in his previous books.
But the real question is whether you understand it and apply it to your real life.

If your answer is no, this book is a great source for your and your children's bright future.
Chapter 18 is especially inspirational.
He gave us a couple of stories on how he has achieved infinity return,
in his words, "printed his own money".

In addition, the fact that he described the same financial concepts as in his
precious work does not necessarily mean that this book is just another book.
Firstly, his consistency in financial tips proves that that is how he has operated
and succeeded almost 20 years since he first published "Rich Dad Poor Dad."
Secondly, as Rich Dad mentioned that repetition is an important learning process.
Repetition for sure helps us to understand more about how Rich Dad views money.
Even subtle difference in explanation of financial concepts gave me great insights.

What distinguishes this book from others are 1. Deeper analysis on how current
economy and educational industry work 2. Great tips on how parents teach money
to their children.

I believe that Robert presents this as a textbook. "I am a teacher," he stated
in the book. The book also has 8 "lesson" chapters. In the end of each lesson chapter,
he illustrated actionable items for parents. According to his analysis, it would take
50 years to transform existing education industry. He knows that he may not be
able to transform education industry while he is still alive.
I think that Robert put this great textbook together in order for parents to better
raise children without waiting for education industry to change.
No wonder he dedicated 2 years to write this book.

None of the lessons in this book is currently taught at school.
You as parents are responsible for teaching these important 8 lessons to your children.

I've read all of the books by Kiyosaki. This is the best for content as it reviews all of his other books information. Just buy this book and pass on ALL his other ones, it'll save you some money. I read one of the other reviews and it mentioned he needed to get a better proof reader. I thought maybe the reviewer was just picky, but after reading this book I know what they mean. Misspelled words, missing words, etc. Lost count after 10 mistakes. Worst book for mistakes I've ever read. The content is good, so I'd recommend it. I hope Robert Kiyosaki reads this review and corrects the errors. Nothing worse than reading a good book with lots of errors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just a splendid book!
Reviewed in the United States on March 8, 2014
I've decided to add some comments on the aforementioned book that I recently purchased on Amazon.com.

I think the book is a clear-cut vision of how real economy works and how people can profit from it.

Personally, I was absolutely thrilled by spontaneity with which Mr. Kyosaki looks into the gears of state administration, businessmen, investors, self-employed people etc.

It is nothing but plain truth.

I would cordially recommend this book to everyone who is about to start building up personal financial portfolio or just about starting doing business, in general.

All the aforementioned remarks are also why I am going to buy one more piece of this book.

Best Regards,

Tomáš Kimla, M.A.
