Many of our global economic problems started in 1971...when President Richard Nixon took the U.S. off the gold standard. Throughout history, when a government went off the gold standard, an age of turbulence began.

In 1997, Robert's book Rich Dad Poor Dad stunned readers stating, "Your house is not an asset." As howls of protest went up around the world, the book went on to become an international bestseller and the #1 personal finance book of all time.

Rich Dad Poor Dad is not a book on real estate. It is a book about the importance of financial education. Rich Dad Poor Dad was written to prepare you and your loved ones for the financial turbulence Robert's rich dad saw coming.

In 2007, as homes declined in value or were lost to foreclosure, millions of homeowners painfully discovered the wisdom of words of Robert's rich dad. Today we are all aware that a home can be a liability. Today we know a home can go up or down in value. Today we all know a person can lose money investing in the stock market. Today we all know our money can go down in value and that even savers can be losers.

This is why financial intelligence is more important today than ever before. In a world of financial turbulence, your best asset is financial IQ.

Don't listen to the bad reviews!!

I recently read this book after reading his Business of 21st century book. I enjoyed that one and decided to get this one and it surely is a good read. I see people saying that all he does is tell personal stories and doesn't tell you what to actually do, which may be true, but i believe he gives you an outline. He's not just gonna be able to tell you "go do this, that and the third" because not everyone is gonna have the same story, everyone is different. He's giving you advice on what he believes are steps to gain financial freedom. Never in life will someone just give you a get rich quick plan with steps 1-5. You have to take advice from people who are actually successful and tweak it to your life. If someone is saying that this is a bad book, do not believe them, as they just want a get rich quick booklet. And he even says at the beginning of the book that the book is personal stories and that he can't just tell you exactly how to go about your own life. Simply because it's YOUR life. Listen to what he's saying, take notes and make your own destiny. People expecto many handouts now a days and that's frankly part of the book. So to me, this is an excellent read, highly recommended.

Wealth worth reading

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2018

Verified Purchase

An invaluable book I wish I had read at 18. Now, at 61, with some savings, but no "assets"according to the author's definition. He really pushes using your money early in life to build assets that pay you in cash flow (such as rental properties and businesses), No argument there, a good plan. He also believes in investing in stocks and small companies. His writing enthused me to get to work, as even at my age, it is not too late. What he may be overlooking is that some people do NOT want to utilize his approach. For instance, my wife had a fulfilling 30 year career in the air force, saving and investing and counting on her pension... and according to him she went by the Old World way, NOT recommended. But for her, she is happy and pretty well situated, retired at 50. I did run my own businesses as the author states, even held assets as he directs, but failed in one part of his lessonry... to protect my money and build on it. He also states that an employee should make you something like 10x what they cost you, and to me, that seems like an unbalanced and unfortunate way to treat the human being you team with. If they are making you that much money, shouldn't it be shared with them?!! As he is wealthy, I can't and wouldn't argue most of the philosophy presented...

The good bad and ugly

Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2019

Verified Purchase

I've already read 4 books of his (this being my 5th). So I believe my opinion is a strong built one.

The bad: He repeats the same personal stories across multiple books (creates more page content) and strings you along without much details on financial knowledge, just general guidance.

The good: As general as his concepts and philosophies are, they are still very powerful and important. Much of the material in the books are hints for you to do your own research and apply from external knowledge (research combined with action). There where many chapters I screened to then reread, and find important hints I could've easily not noticed.

My advice:
If your looking for passive reads that build your knowledge over time? Then these books are not best suited. It would be nearly jmpossible to learn financial literacy through his books alone without consistently applying it with further research and application on your own finances.

As simple as his books are, they have really pushed me to be proactive. Which is much more difficult, but well worth the cost.

I read Rich Dad Poor Dad and the Cash Flow Quadrant several years ago

Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2018

Verified Purchase

I read Rich Dad Poor Dad and the Cash Flow Quadrant several years ago. I even read Rich Dad Poor Dad for Teens and gifted the book to a few teenagers in my family. But this book was such a waste of my time and money. Very vague in nature. No real actionable advice. Repeated stories over and over again. Could have left a few names out of this book. Could have left a few stories out of the book and come to the point. A lot of round about talking without really saying anything that was anything close to give you real financial information. Does a lot of advertising for his other products, ie, cashflow 101.

Read Debt Millionaire instead

Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2017

If you read Rich Dad Poor Dad, don't bother to read this book. If you want to increase your financial IQ read Debt Millionaire. In this book Robert brags that when he needs money he just writes another book over the weekend. "This is the book"

book could've been 12 pages long

Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2019

Verified Purchase

He did a good job with rich dad poor dad but this book could've honestly been 12 pages long and had the same value. There's way too much fluff and just mentioning the same thing over and over again. I'll never buy another book of his. You can tell he writes these to keep his cashflow from writing books instead of to genuinely help people. I was listening to his podcast and he opened it up for Q and A. I forgot what the question was but i'll never forget his answer.... "you want to know how to be successful buy my book, you want to know how to do good in real estate, buy my book, finances, buy my book, taxes, buy my book". What a selfish guy. I may try out his cashflow game but I sure as hell will never buy another book of his, or waste my life reading it again.

Great read.

Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2017

Verified Purchase

I've read several comments on how his style of writing is repetitive and doesn't give definitive answers; that's the whole point. It takes self awareness to realize that you have to do the work to learn and seek help if you want success. I'd read something else if you're looking for black and white answers from any of his books.

Decent guide to how to think about money

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 27, 2019

Verified Purchase

It's a fairly dense book but at the dame time the key ideas are pretty straight forward.

Be aware this isn't a step by step type of book, with a formula to follow.

It's more high level than that.

The entire book could be summed up thus :

The mental abilities and attitudes (which is the "financial intelligence" on the book title) of the investor regarding money is what makes the investment either good or bad.

In other words, 2 people could earn the same amount of money, but one saves more, and thus is more "financially intelligent," as rule number 2 is "keep more money."

A third person might earn and save the same as number 2, but puts that saved money into stocks and shares and doubles it (an example!) and so observes the rule of getting your money to work for you, and also rule 1, "earn more."

And so on.

There are 5 such financial intelligences, and working on any of them will help, and all of them together is synergistic.

He wants you to know he knows Donald Trump.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 2, 2020

Verified Purchase

This is the second Rich Dad book I’ve read.

Please Robert, get a proof reader. My mum could do it, she’s great at it. Let me know. Anyway, be prepared to read the same things 15 to 20 times at least. There’s grammar mistakes everywhere and a ‘hat’ that’s clearly meant to be ‘that’. It’s a little embarrassing.

However, I do enjoy how everything is a little anecdote, whether fictional or not. Personally his books give me the drive and focus that I’ve been looking for, which I suppose is the most important thing, hence 4 stars.

Oh and in this book he likes to boast about how he likes and personally knows Donald Trump. You’ve been warned.

My tutor recommended this book to me. Just like Rich Dad, Poor Dad it is inspiring and really well written, in that Kiyosaki uses simple language and every day illustrations to help the reader understand really complex concepts.
Didn't you want to learn how to get along in the world, read Kiyosaki. He's an inspiration.

Worth a read

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 19, 2017

Verified Purchase

This is a good book to get your started on your road to wealth and financial intelligence.
Real life explanations in which most people can relate to, or point out. For this book to really stick in, I personally believe the reader needs to be willing to change their views to be able to understand the knowledge which is being presented here. Once you are able to think more objectively about yourself, only then will you be able to really grasp the concept of what Robert is trying to teach.
