Summary: Tax Strategies for the Rich and those that want to be Rich
Review: The Rich Dad Poor Dad series of books created by Robert Kiyosaki helps people to understand how it is that some average, hard-working people propel themselves out of the middle class, while others work just as hard but can't seem to get anywhere. This guidebook is another example of the excellent material published in The Rich Dad Poor Dad series. It focuses on how to get the right information from the right advisors. In my corporate and tax law practice, I often instruct my clients to read this book as homework. It provides a basis of legal and tax information that most people have heard of but were afraid to ask. Thus, the book eases communications between a client and his or her legal, financial and tax advisors by giving the client an understanding of what's relevant to their planning strategies. Clients who better understand the principles of legal, financial, and tax planning will get more out of the relationships with their advisors. The book also helps people to understand the psychological difference between being a worker and being an entrepreneur. The average investor or small business owner makes his or her money on raw talent and perseverance. Their only difference from the sophisticated and highly successful entrepreneur is a lack of self-awareness about the direction they want to go, how best to get there, and who to turn to for advise along the way.

Review: This book is intended for fledgling entrepreneurs, and as such its namesake is somewhat misleading. Rather than discussing obscure "loopholes" in US tax law, it concentrates on basic business planning and investment strategies. The abridged version is very short, and the presentation often degrades into little more than descriptions of different types of corporations, and other very fundamental information that, in one's opinion, are better obtained elsewhere. Unfortunately, even when Kennedy is insightful and objective, the book's dialogue and narration read like the script to a 1950s educational film. I do not recommend the CD audio version of the book. Some may find author Diane Kennedy's tinny reading voice and artificial inflection to be grating and unaccommodating.
