Summary: Too wordy but factual...
Review: This book is worth a study not just a read. Besides that it is simply an entre'. With more puffery than facts it left me hungry for the main course. With the introduction of a game which far and away overpriced and more books which are priced beyond rationality it left me with the feeling of a guy who is full of himself. Yes you need this knowledge. You need it now. But at what cost? You probably should be able to get this type of "information" which includes every book and both of the games for about $200 tops.

Summary: A BOOK THAT WAKE UP AMERICANS
Review: I like to read but I hate to write. The reason I write this comment is because I strongly believed "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" is a book that majority of the Americans should read. This book point out the weakness of Americans such as lack of financial intelligence. One of the good example is the bad spending habit. For most of us, we like to buy things on credit, in the other word, we spend money that we don't have and pay unreasonable high interest. That's why most of us are in debt for most of our life. This is just one of the point that Mr. Robert T. Kiyosaki mentioned in this book and he also tells us what we need to change in order to be financially success. Personally I like this book a lot and agree a lot of things that Mr. Robert T. Kiyosaki said in this book. Thanks Mr. Robert T. Kiyosaki

Summary: A WASTE OF TIME!
Review: This book is nothing more than an info-mercial in print form with a purpose of selling you expensive tapes and a $300.00 board game! By the looks of others reviews, his rhetoric is working. Kiyosaki simply uses an age old tactic here: greed. He will make you feel stupid and guilty for having a safe, secure job or your very own business, no matter how much you make you are a rat in a rat race. He then boasts about all of his riches and possesions to get you dreaming. Once this is accomplished, you worship his every word and buy his tapes which supposedly teaches you step by step what to do with your money. Folks, wake up! He is using the same tactics that most network marketing "businesses" use. In my experience, those that do, do. Those that can't do teach. If he is a millionare, I would bet that its from selling this stuff. This book has a very immature feel to it, its like "HA HA, I have all this money and you dont. What are you going to do about it? Keep slaving away at your job the rest of your life?" Keep your money and put it in a diversified mutual fund, which by the way is what "uninformed, average investors do with thier money" according to Kiyosaki. Excuse me! This is the best stock market ever in history! It has been escalating for 10 years! What am I missing here? My opinion is that he is a very poor writer, he wrote "my rich dad said", or "my poor dad said" so many times it made me crazy. I am going to continue being a "rat" and return this book for a personal financial planning guide which I was looking for in the first place.

Summary: A must read for students
Review: As a college student who has taken two economics classes and two consumer law classes, this book taught more in the two days it took to read than the four semesters it took to complete those courses. I now feel prepared to enter the real world and become self-reliant. This book should be required reading for junior high, high school and college students because it explains debt, liabilities and assets in a very simple way.

Summary: ENLIGHTENING
Review: This book describes how businessmen and investors think about money, and how these views differ from what most people think. If you are currently an employee or self-employed then it will change some of your assumptions about money and education. For how well it does that alone it deserves 5 stars. It is not particularly well-written, but it has an easy-to-read style, and is certain to keep your interest through the story telling method of exposition. Well worth reading.

Summary: A must read for every parent!
Review: My husband and I loved this book and it's advice so much that I sent it to every couple that I know for their Christmas present. We agree with the money management & investment philosophy's. Everyone who received the book has already gone out and bought the 2nd book and hopefully are on their way to financial freedom. Wouldn't it be great to make all of your friends rich!

Summary: Worth Reading
Review: The core thrust of this book is well worth reading. It is just that he could have done it in about 20 pages! There is way too much of the typical pulp filling fluff here. Nevertheless, it is well worth plucking out the gems contained in this book.

Summary: Thank you for writing this book.
Review: Lately, I've only given David Siegel books 5 stars. SYNOPSIS: Just received this book Friday. Ordered all his other books Saturday. This is one of those earth-shattering books that sneaks up on you and in a friendly way, grabs you by the lapels and shouts, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? " And then he explains to you what you're doing, and why you don't have to do that - he describes sensible alternatives to the mindless fear. I was right about something. I'm happy to report that. Specializing isn't the wisest move. Knowing a lot about a lot is. To the writer: Thank you, Professor. Your effort is deeply appreciated.

Summary: You Can Do It!
Review: This is likely the best non-fiction book I have read. Of course, it requires an open and receptive mind, but the financial education is worth its weight in gold. If you have had generations of paycheck-to-paycheck income, you absolutely must read this book. You will understand what you knew all along, but were afraid to live it.
