Summary: Worth the read, but not groundbreaking
Review: Everyone should read this book, because it does do a wonderful job in getting you to analyze your attitude towards investing. However, it does nothing more than tout the high-rish high-yield style of investment while making it seem like anything more conservative is unthinkable. The book is pervaded with a condescending and snobbish tone, which is understandable to an extent, but it gets old. In short, investment advice we've all heard before partnered with pretentious motivational one-liners wrapped in an 'easy money' teasing which I'm sure Mr. Kiyosaki, with his experience in marketing, realized would sell this book. If you feel the need to buy a Porsche and retire at 40, perhaps you'll appreciate this book more.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Teach your kids before it is too late
Review: This is a great look at how we should teach our kids about money. We grew up with depression age parents who were always worried about every penny, but did not always save and invest. I would like to recommend another book. The Intersection of Joy and MOney. The author brings you right to the core of why you have problems with money and that these issues began in childhood. Get the Intersection book and resolve your money issues before you pass them to your kids.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Assets and Liabilities Assets and Liabilities
Review: I'm not crazy, I promise. I wrote my "Assets and Liabilities" twice because of Robert T. Kiyosaki's writing style that happens to repete almost every important point he tries to make. As good as this book is, the ideas are drilled into our head several times within a few pages. But, overall this book was very educational and profound. Many people are in the "rat race" of life and are looking for a way to get out, this is the first step. This book helps me to conceptualize how I will spend my money once I start making it. I will put it into assets, so my "money will work for me." This book gives an insight to a bunch of great ways to keep on top in the rich man's world

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: not bad!
Review: Overall, I enjoyed the book. It is full of money makng strategies that are interesting and helpful. It gives the reader a good idea about how money works and how to think out of the box. It is also written in a conversational tone that makes it easy to read. I liked how the author used his own personal experiences as examples. It is very informative and is a good book to read before setting out into the workforce.
There were some aspects that I didn't like. I thought the whole first half was very slow; it seemed to be a huge, unecessary introduction. It was also a bit sad to read about a little nine ear old boy that was so obsessed about making money and being rich. But I'm sure that certain parts were exaggerated for effect. As a whole it was a very thorough, interesting book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Rich dad and poor dad
Review: I love these book it was great I like the way the author say the ideas of the book and it makes the reader exited to complete the book and read it all. Also it helps the reader to think about the main idea of the book and compare it with the reality,because it talks about a very important idea in our live now days.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: rich dad versus poor dad
Review: This book was very informative and moved at a fast pace. I enjoyed it and found the way "rich dad" taught interesting. I might not agree with some of the ideas presented in this book, but it did open my eyes to the "rat race" that most everyone is stuck in. Overall it was a good book and i recommend it to people who want a short and fast read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Inspirations
Review: Rich Dad Poor Dad was a great book. It taught me the differences between assets and liabilities in a different perspective. It also opened my eyes to to the many possiblities of making money, much easier ways.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Rich Dad Poor Dad
Review: This book is very well written. It simply describes the ways to make money. It provides simple pictures to help the reader to comprehend what the author is describing. There are also many short stories that help to keep the reader attentive and drawn into the book. The stories are also very helpful in understanding the concepts presented.

Even though the book is very well written, it also seems to be very repetitive. The repetition may be used to have the messages sink into the readers' brains, but it is a little much. The same points seem to be made over and over again instead of moving on to new topics.

It is an entertaining book and I recommend it to anyone interested in money. Robert Kiyosaki really makes the reader think about money and how to earn it. Money does not necessarily flow to those that went to many years of college. It just depends how much knowledge the person has of how to earn and keep earning the money.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It was good although it was repetitive (IN A GOOD WAY)
Review: Well I think the topic and teachings in this book were excellent and very clever. It wasn't about him being lectured about the different paths in life it was about him EXPERIENCING those paths which is a very valuable lesson and u learn so much more through experience. The author does repete things a lot and stretches out the story but in a sense I think the repetition is good because people LEARN through REPETITION. It was a good topic and it was an easy read.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Rich and Poor?
Review: I think this book was interesting, and was very informative as to how one shouild invest their money. However, it could make you think you do not need an education to succeed which I disagree with. Even if someone succeeds or not they should be educated anyway. At least now we know there is another way to make money without education.
