It's been nearly 25 years since Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad first made waves in the Personal Finance arena.
It has since become the #1 Personal Finance book of all time... translated into dozens of languages and sold around the world. Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert's story of growing up with two dads -- his real father and the father of his best friend, his rich dad -- and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing. The book explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to be rich and explains the difference between working for money and having your money work for you.
20 Years... 20/20 Hindsight
In the 20th Anniversary Edition of this classic, Robert offers an update on what we've seen over the past 20 years related to money, investing, and the global economy. Sidebars throughout the book will take readers "fast forward" -- from 1997 to today -- as Robert assesses how the principles taught by his rich dad have stood the test of time.
In many ways, the messages of Rich Dad Poor Dad, messages that were criticized and challenged two decades ago, are more meaningful, relevant and important today than they were 20 years ago.
As always, readers can expect that Robert will be candid, insightful... and continue to rock more than a few boats in his retrospective.
Will there be a few surprises? Count on it.

I recently purchased "Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids about Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!" from Takealot, and it has been a transformative read. The book provides invaluable insights into financial intelligence, offering a perspective that challenges conventional beliefs about money. Kiyosaki's narrative about his "rich dad" and "poor dad" provides a unique and thought-provoking contrast, making you reconsider your approach to wealth and success. The book is not just about making money; it's about understanding the principles of wealth creation and adopting a mindset that sets you on a path to financial freedom. Kiyosaki's straightforward writing style and real-life examples make complex financial concepts accessible to readers at any level of financial literacy. However, I would advise potential readers that this book is more about changing your mindset than offering specific, step-by-step instructions. It's a philosophical guide to wealth-building rather than a strict financial manual.

βRich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki is a popular personal finance book that challenges traditional views on money and investing. It contrasts lessons from the author's "poor dad" (his biological father) and "rich dad" (his friend's father). The book emphasizes: 1. Buying income-generating assets 2. Importance of financial education 3. Developing an entrepreneurial mindset 4. Real estate as a wealth-building tool Pros include its accessible style and motivational content. Cons include potentially oversimplified advice and controversies surrounding the author. While not comprehensive, it's a thought-provoking introduction to alternative financial thinking.

The content is honestly one of the best personal finance books there is, but was very disappointed how small this book is. Not standard book size. Very difficult to read.
