Product Description

Tune into any personal finance programme these days and the vast majority of today's money experts will tell you that, in order to become wealthy, you have to cut your credit cards up immediately and save, save and save by putting the maximum amount of your salary into your retirement plan. While these plans might work for some people, Robert Kiyosaki urges readers to take a different approach to financial freedom. That starts by learning how to get rid of our what he calls 'bad debt' (such as credit card bills, health bills and other unsecured debt) and learning how to maximise 'good debt' such as a home mortgage or other investments. Kiyosaki outlines how you can accomplish this without having to resort to cutting up your credit cards.

Tragic fall from grace - Kiyosaki has become a charleton
The lead author of "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" changed my life. While changing careers 4 years ago I read his original seminal work on a flight from New York and now, many hundreds of thousands of pounds richer, I cannot help but remain a huge fan.

This latest book is a travesty. It is unmitigated "cut and paste" from earlier work, tied together into the slimest "book" (more a pamphlet) bulked out by blank pages and advertising. Kiyosaki always took a long time to make his point, but now he is selling what could be written on 1 page of A4 as a book and trying to take your good money in the process. Don't buy this book. Don't borrow it from the library. Just accept it for what it is - a gross rip-off.

If this joke attempt to steal your money has not totally put you off, you should buy "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" and it's sequel "Cashflow Quadrant"; these really are two great texts - so much so that my copies still get "borrowed" (on a permanent basis) by my family and friends all of the time. Alternatively you could start with "The Richest Man in Babylon", a 1930's text that is the precursor to kiyosaki's thoughts.

Short, Superficial Rehash of Previous Rich Dad Books
When I received this book I quickly realized that it was different from the other books in Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad series. The book is short, only about 80 pages, and contains mostly superficial content from the books Rich Dad, Poor Dad, The Cashflow Quadrant, and Rich Dad's Guide To Investing.
Unfortunatly, this book reads mostly like a commercial for the previous books and people who have already read those books will find little new information in it. For people that have not read the books mentioned above I would rather recomend reading those books instead of this one.
