Rating:  Summary: rich dad poor dad review Review: The book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" portrays the idea of how to become rich. In reading this book, my feelings were mixed. Some of the ideas I completely agreed with, and others, I felt like not everyone lives in a perfect world. I also think that the authors could have made the book shorter and more to the point. Some of the ideas were drawn out too much, and it lost the important factor that it is just an advise. I would give this book a 4 because I think some people need to be informed on how others believe how to become rich, and others need some general advise.
Rating:  Summary: pretty good book Review: When I read the first chapter of the book I was very interested in reading on. While the rest of the book was not as good (rather not what I expected) I still enjoyed it. The book discussed fairly easy but amazingly true things. These helpful hints are so obvious that the average Joe probably does not even think about them due to its simplicity. While I think the concepts taught in the novel were a little hard to grasp for two nine year old boys, I personaly liked the style of the text and the information being presented
Rating:  Summary: financial planing Review: I enjoyed the book. It is helpful for young people and adults. It shows you how you need to use your money wisely so that you'll have greater opportunities in life. It also shows you how you can select stocks the right way, so that you'll make more money. I recomend this book to everyone because it's a good book and it has great information for the future.
Rating:  Summary: Set your priorities straight Review: The goal of this book is not to give you full answers, but to make you ask yourself the correct questions. One of the previous reviews was criticising the concept of not taking your house as an "asset". It doesn't mean that you shouldn't buy a house, it means that you need to look for other options to use as investments that will guarantee your financial future. I know so many people who think that once you "buy" a house your financial future is resolved. This book proves all those people wrong by using clear examples on how we usually "spend" rather than "invest" money. Please read it. It is the first step to a healthy financial future.
Rating:  Summary: Half Truth , Half Bogus Review: Positives Made me realize that home is not asset but it really a liability. Negetives. De-motivated me from my job. Make you feel like there is easy money out there.
Rating:  Summary: THINK BIG Review: This book is amazing. If you have ever needed a swift kick in the butt to encourge you to do something with you life this is it. It tells you to think with you head and not with your emotions. It encourages you to think big and use your imagination. Those who use their imagination and take risks are the ones who make money. Never say you can't afford something, ask yourself how can you afford something. Make money your employee have it work for you, not you work for it. This book is so easy to read and it's quick.
Rating:  Summary: great book Review: this book really helped change my outlook on money. it is a wonderful book to get you started thinking about your own financial future.
Rating:  Summary: See the Possibilities Review: Rich Dad, Poor Dad is an excellent book that serves as a wonderful introduction to managing your money. I highly recommend this to younger people (16 to twenty-something) who aren't really sure what they want to do with their life. Most people decide to be an accountant or a dentist or a teacher or whatever (i.e. - they focus on a _ job _). If, after reading this book, they decide to become financially independent - they would then be able to focus on whether they want to travel, spend time with friends and/or change the world etc. This book helps people see new possibilities, and would make an excellent gift. To see what the book covers you can visit my site, found through the 'more about me' link, where I have some detailed summaries of it.
Rating:  Summary: Begin Understanding Money Review: Rich Dad, Poor Dad is a great book for people who want to increase their financial intelligence for the first time. Kiyosaki writes at a level easy to comprehend and understand. By the end of this book you will have a better understanding of assets and liablitites and how to have money work for you. I would recommend this book to any beginners in the financial world who are just getting started. By the end of the book you'll be pumped up and excited about money and your new knowledge.
Rating:  Summary: Review for Economics- Rich Dad Poor Dad Review: I made myself st down and read this book one weekend, and it is probably the best investment I have ever made. The book was extremely easy to read, becuse it captured your attention right from the start. I am probably not the most educated when it comes to Economics, but this book explained so much to me. It helped me to understand the difference between an assest and a liability which is something that i will use for the rest of my life. I also really enjoyed the fact that it was written in a story form. I would highly recommend this book to anyone that isn't extremely educated in economics, but it will get you excited to learn more. It is a good start for along life, and I'm glad I read it when I'm still yung, because I will use it's lessons as I grow up.
