We shall open our eyes
I read this book almost 3 years ago. It was one the first books in the area of self-development I have read. Yes, I consider it a book of self-development. It totally changed the way I look at my finances and life in general. I can say I don't agree with every single bit of it, but the overall message is very important because it makes you think if you really want to work all your life for someone else when you have the possibility of developing something you really love and you're good at. It may be

Simplistic, original and a great value
I've read countless books on personal finance and creating wealth, but I must say Kiyosaki's is one of the better ones. Most finance books are pure finance and potential suggestions. They miss
class="textlinks">what preclud
es any great change in your life, and where most fail at; stepping back from your life as an employee and creating the proper mindset to get
rich
, (or achieve whatever financial goals you have). In other words, if you're head isn't in the right place from the beginning, the discipline and tools will
not
be enough to get you there. He feels
that
the single most important quality to achieve success is in the philosophy. How the wealthy think is what makes them different from the average worker or those just getting by.
People who grind it out for the man day in day out need a complete brain makeover before they can see the forest for the trees. Kiyosaki had two father figures, a
poor
one (his real
dad
) and a rich one. His poor dad offer this worldview to his son; "Study hard so you can find a good company to work for." For him, talk of
money
was bad. Risk was bad. He argued that one's company is responsible to make sure all his needs were met. Finding the best job with the best company that offered the best benefits, to him, was best. His rich dad, on the other hand, encouraged talking
about money
around the dinner table, to teach the children how to think. He encouraged managing risk, rather than avoiding it. He argued against reliance upon an employer and for "total financial self-reliance" (16). Of course, Kiyosaki's book promotes the mindset of his rich dad.
The book breaks down into six main lessons, which help the reader understand the mindset rather than a method. To close, Kiyosaki makes suggestions about how to begin. First, he combats the five main reasons people stay in their current life-style: fear, cynicism, laziness, bad habits, and arrogance. He then gives ten steps to begin this new mindset.
Great book for its simplicity, original approach and value.

Extremely Educational and Inspiring...
This book was far better than expected. Recommended to me by a close friend of my brother's, who has made a fortune for himself in investing at 30 years old. He has a "passive income",
