Summary: blah
Review: same old stuff nothing new, extremely boring, brags too much, leaves questions unanswered, way too long. this book can be summed up in about 3 pages of notes. its sad to see that he only thinks about money. he basically pushes parents to "bring out" their "genius" soley to succeed socioeconomically in life. by reading his anecdotes, it seems as if all he did was think about making money, even as a little kid. although practical, it almost didacticly pushes you to believe that the only reason to live is for the ephemeral components of life such as getting rich. it illogically alludes the reader to believe that with money comes happiness.

Summary: A Vague Directory to Financial Success
Review: I truly enjoyed reading another one of the famous Rich Dad books. I am a senior in high school, and I had no clue where to find direction on how to avoid my parents (in debt) footsteps -- that is until I read Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Onto the next guide and more appropriate for my age, Rich Kid, Smart Kid taught me many valuable lessons, especially about taxes and the banking system. Kiyosaki's financial aid also helped me to understand that just because I am not a "numerical genious" doesn't mean I cannot be very successdul in the "real world" creating ideas from my more "genious" skills. The only flaw however, in Rich Kid, Smart Kid, was that it repeated much of what was said in Rich Dad, Poor Dad. As a teenager, I want to know more about how to avoid debt with the government and where money comes and goes. As Kiyosaki says, understanding how money works is the key to financial freedom. Overall, Rich Kid, Smart Kid is a great first step toward success in an ever-changing economy.

Summary: Rich Teenager
Review: Although I do not fit in the category of being a child or parent, I still find this book to be very helpful to all persons seeking a head start for their financial future.
I shall definitely keep in mind all the helpful hints presented throughout the book along with the lessons told by the author's, Kiyosaki, "Rich Dad". But most important, I will be more mindful of what it really takes to become the fabled "millionaire."
Many parts of the book seem repetitive and make the reader feel like they are the child being taught the lessons instead. However, this style reinforces the importance of truely understanding the lessons so that the parent can share them with the child.
The real core of the book, the actual "tips" for your child, isn't until the appendicies. Although I already stated that I am a teenager, I have still thought about trying some of the things mentioned.
I highly recommed this book and I hope to be able to read some of the other books under "Rich Dad" and think you should too.

Summary: what i expected it to be
Review: After finishing reading MR.Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad, I felt that I had learned a good amount of lessons of how to handle money in the life and the real world. However after reading Rich Kid Smart Kid, I feel like I was just retaught every lesson I was taught in the first book. The author repeated his ideas way too many times and it became tedious to read. He makes it seem like its so easy to make money in the real world, however in reality that isn't true because he leaves out so many parts which stop people from making money. As I kept reading the book it felt like every line was just being repeated and it was too close to the first book i read, Rich Dad Poor Dad. It became very boring.

Summary: It was alriiiiiiiiiiight
Review: I found this book "Rick Kid Smart Kid" very easy to read and helpful. Although the information is pertaining to adults with children, it still offered tidbits of advice that could be applicable to any person in the real world. Even though the author did come off sounding like he was all knowing, the book was still easy to get through. Some of the information was kind of weird, like laying out your finacnial spread sheets in front of your child. I think anyone under 25 would have been confused by that. All in all, it was a fun book to go through, and I picked up a few things along the way.

Summary: Necessary for your kids financial success
Review: i found this book to be an incredibly accurate, down to earth work. it tells you every basic concept you need to teach your kids in order for them to have the best chance at becoming financially successful as an adult. It is written in a very easy-to-understand manner, and repeats all of the authors concepts so many times, yet in different ways, that you can't help but remember them. one of the most interesting parts of this book is the chapter on how everyone has their own ways of learning. the most important thing for a child is to find out which way of learning suits them best. this will make learning fun and they will be a smart kid.

Summary: It Was OK
Review: As I read other reviews, I could relate to them all. Rich Kid Smart kid was extremely redundant (I could repeat to you all of the sayings he said over and over), his anecdotes I could have done without, and he advertised himself a ton. It also bugged me how many times he said he was a bestseller author. What a way to identify yourself.However, I did think it was interesting and helpful. For some reason, I couldn't put it down when I read it. The anecdotes, although too prolific, were somewhat interesting. Before reading this book, I didn't even know you could invest in Real Estate, and he went into how and what you do a little bit. The section on self-perception and different geniuses was very interesting. I think if all kids knew that they were smart, just not in every way, there would be a lot less self-esteem problems. I think it would also help teachers be patient with kids that are labeled "troublemakers." Although I enjoyed reading Rich Kid Smart Kid for the most part, and it did make me feel smart after I read it, I was annoyed at the posed questions that were never answered. Where do I get the money to invest? It sounded like the money he started out with just appeared, which I know didn't happen. I also wish he would have explained Asset, Liabilities, Income, and Expenses in a little more detail. Instead, he referred to his other books, which I probably won't read. The part I learned most from was when he put the situations into a real-life senario. It also bothered me how he said he wasn't writing a book on parenting, when he was dishing out an awful lot of advice. Overall, the book was interesting and it might be the way to a good start in your child's financial life, but that doesn't help me too much. I think I would have benefitted from this book a lot more if it had been more answers than questions, but that may have been the reason it was quick reading.
