Rich Dad's Guide to Investing: What the Rich Invest in, That the Poor and the Middle Class Do Not!
Robert T. Kiyosaki, Sharon L. Lechter
Rating: 3.5/5 Stars
Rank: 603
No answers but a very useful "guide" (East Lansing, MI) April 30, 2005 - 4.0/5 stars
Having no prior knowledge about investing, I would now consider myself more
savvy in the investing world. Kiyosaki's Guide to investing was very easy
to read, understand, and comprehend.
Much of the text is in dialogues
between him and his "Rich Dad" and the conversations were about real life
situations that Kiyosaki could better understand from his small and
frequent lessons provided by rich dad. The conversations in the first
chapters of the book were a little redundant with the same idea of there
are people who invest, but in order to get rich you must be at least one
or more of the following: rich, patient, smart, or just know people who
know more.
I found this book very motivational and giving me the urge to
want a lot of money. If you are interested in hearing a personal story on
becoming rich and their methods, this book is perfect.
Rich dad does not
provide easy and quick ways to make money, but ways to think about where
you are financially and assessing what you really have; then discuses
smart ways and decisions to increase your financial situation.
This
book is useful to anyone who has always wanted to invest and make more
money, but not jump into the stock market or other investing situations
that they do not know about because a great amount of detail is gone into
about the basics of investing (actually for many chapters).
People of all
ages will find use out of this book, but if you already have a very large
perception on investing, this book may be a long summary to what is
already known.
_Rich Dad's guide to investing_ has mental quizzes after
each chapter to help you better understand the lesson and then apply it to
your life.
I found these lessons useful in analyzing my own situation and
not just learning about someone else's finances.
Rich dad makes you feel
more confident about investing, explains that investing does not have to
be hard or risky.
The vocabulary throughout is defined and explained so
an amateur reader will understand the lesson. Kiyosaki's guide may also
be very resourceful for one who is an entrepreneur, or would like to start
and build their own business because Rich dad gives excellent reasons why
building a business is good and how to make that business successful.
The technology of investing has become very complex and may seem
confusing, but this investing book is honestly what it says it is: a
"Guide" and not straight forward answers and solutions to any money
problems you may have.
Money is a part of everyone's lives, and it is
always needed, and if you want it, Rich dad will make you want to begin
your investing today. I never realized how important it is to plan your
money in very extensive details and into the future. In the end you can
tell how well you have done, as Rich dad puts it "A financial statement is
your report card once you leave school." If you have always wanted to
invest, but do not feel confident about where to begin or where your money
should be placed, this book is what you will need to begin.
