    This book was highly recommended to me as an exceptional book to learn about personal finances and how to make money. I was disappointed. While Kiyosaki has a few good ideas, the majority of the book was fluff, and quite repetitive. He encouraged taking advantage of people's ignorance and misery and extolled the pursuit of money as a game, even when it hurt others. In the end, I took almost nothing away from the book, except of few bits of advice and a full loathing for anyone who uses others to gain something as trite as money. Kiyosaki gave the reader very little for the money spent on his book - another example of how to make money, I guess.

    This is a great book and I am great full for it. The paradigm shift in mindset description is well worth the read. While many principles and formulas are fantastic, I think some of the information may be a bit dated. Social enterprise, conscious consumerism, the sharing economy and many new forms of business would add a lot to an update of this book, and possibly add a new dimension to the paradigm shift. This is really a book about conventional business wisdom as usual from a personal mine set. I also cringed each time Donald Trump's business acumen was touted in light of all the facts we now have not only about his tremendous number business failings, but his bigotry and misogyny make him very un-hero worthy.

    the book is tremendously informative and inspirational. The only thing to criticize that too much blame is on the poor and there are some examples stated to prove financial smartness, I am afraid to say I think they are considered as cheating and deceiving

    Robert Kiyosaki is a con artist. He makes his money by publishing motivational materials about fluff. His advice can land you in jail. Look up news articles about him.

    Being a 14-years-old with school reliant parents is very hard, but rich dad poor dad taught me to control myself from liabilities, financial vocabulary and etc. The audio was very clear and everything was perfect. This book has a special place on me.

    I love this book! I’ve read it once and have the audiobook on “repeat”. Every time I listen, I catch something I missed before or gain a better understanding of heat I learned earlier.
    This book is for anyone who is sick and tired of working others and their pennies.

    Be aware that this book is only about getting rich, money and getting out of the rat race. In this instance, it is a good book.

    The first part, in my opinion, is good: we are driven financially by fear, greed. We go to work because of fear and ignorance. Money is the carrot an the illusion.

    His simple definition of accounting is very simple and make sense:
    - Assets. Brings you money
    - Liabilities: takes money from you.

    If you want to be rich, you need to identify what is really an asset. A property may not necessarily be an asset.

    On the rat race :

    1 - Middle Class (MD) and Poor are the productive elements of the economy. Their labour makes The Rich rich.

    2 - MD and P are slaves to the rich. They live pay checks to pay checks.

    3 - Our schools put MD and Poors in boxes to be productive 'employees'. Employees are stuck in the rat race, crated by this system, and keep rich in control.

    4 - The Middle class and the Poors pay taxes and feed the system, that keep them in the rat race.

    5 - The Rich have ways not to pay taxes and grow their capital.

    6 - You must build your asset column, so you can exit from the rat race (pay checks to pay checks).


    The second part, is a politicised "business coaching", for the people that are still reading the book.

    In my opinion, the Macro Economics behind the book are Rubish: the state is bad, taxes have been invented by the poor and middle class, we should not pay taxes, state workers are costing us money, trump is his role model, etc...
