I really liked this book. It was just as good if not better than Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I recomend it.

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.

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.

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.

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.
