Product Description
This text, the follow-up to "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" reveals why some people work less, earn more, pay less in taxes, and feel more financially secure than others. The author argues that it is simply a matter of knowing which quadrant to work from and when. Have you ever wondered: What is the difference between an employee and a business owner?; Why do some investors make money with little risk while most other investors just break even?; Why do most employees go from job to job while others quit their jobs and go on to build business empires?; Why, in the Industrial Age, did most parents want their children to become medical doctors, accountants, or attorneys. and why, in the Information Age, are these professions under financial attack? Many of the brightest graduates from our universities want to work for college dropouts. Dropouts such as Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Michael Dell and Ted Turner; dropouts who today are the mega-rich of society. This book explores these questions and issues to assist in guiding you to find your own path to financial freedom in a world of ever-increasing financial change.

 Great book to follow Rich Dad, Poor Dad September 24, 2008
I really liked this book. It was just as good if not better than Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I recomend it.
Great book! August 15, 2008
This book is really the "core" of beliefs that are expressed in many of the author's books.
Where this book excels is getting people out "employee" or "self employed" mentality and thinking in a "business owner" or "investor" mentality. After I read this book I really started looking at my co-workers in a strange way and decided I needed a change.
Kiyosaki recommends investing in assets that create a positive cash flow immediately. Easier said than done, but the author admits it's not easy -to get rich!
Since I've read this book, I've left the "employee" and "self-employed" mentality behind and have really focused on business owner mentality. Although my personal "cash flow" initially dropped in the process, my long term situation has definitely improved and put me on target to achieve higher levels of success.
A PRICELESS Education July 22, 2008
Want to know why the rich get richer and everyone else seems to struggle? Is this an end all on the subject- NO it is not, as Robert himself would tell you the study of money if a lifetime pursuit.
However this book does an excellent job of describing the basics of why the rich get richer- and how they do it.
This book is also the first that enabled me to understand some basic accounting principles- mostly by not using numbers and formulas just some simple diagrams. Does it make you a CPA- No. But it does get a working class guy with little to no accounting knowledge the basic understanding of a personal financial statement.
Robert Kiyosaki (and his advisors) write books that make what seems to be complex money subjects seem understandable. Kind of the way AOL made the internet seem easy. Most of us have outgrown AOL a LONG, LONG time ago. And you can improve your financial literacy easily with Robert and his team.
Thanks Dad July 12, 2008
Outstanding book. It provides the right financial wisdom that is so desperately needed by many in this country.
Oh, how I wish I could have had a book like this 20 years ago!
It will make much better sense if you read the first book in the series first though, "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", if you haven't already done so.
 Repetitive . . . yes July 9, 2008
Like others, I do agree this book is a little repetitive. Mr. Kiyosaki does restate the same ideas he mentioned in his first book but he goes into more detail on other ideas; like how he made money on some deals. This book is meant to be a general 'coaching' and not a get rich quick seminar. So the repetitive pep talks are necessary and probably are similar in method to which his rich dad gave him. Furthermore, after a lifetime of repeating bad money habits, one needs repetition before correcting those habits. I do plan on continuing the series.
