Tipul e un extremist agresiv, arogant și cu mari probleme. Na, prieten cu imbecilul de Trump. Dar din cartea asta - pe care am citit-o când a apărut la noi și la care revin des când trebuie să le explic tinerilor cu care stau de vorbă câteva principii despre bani - am învățat cele mai importante lecții de educație financiară. Dacă aș fi citit-o la 16 ani, probabil că aș fi fost milionar acum. Nu c-am ajuns rău, dar m-ar fi ajutat să privesc cu totul altfel banii de când am început să-i fac. Recomand.

4/5
An insightful read that highlights the importance of financial literacy and explains how to manage your income for building assets.

I liked the way how these books enable you not "what" to do, but "how" to do as per your situation and after an analytical examination of what your preferences are!

This is a way off from my usual reads but since it was given me by my bf who wants me too educated in money making or more money working for us then I gave it a go. Did not expect it to be so captivating and interesting plot-wise and language-wise. I learned a thing or two but don’t really see how can I applu any of the techniques right now because of the low salaries in Latvia. A good read but not practical for those who don’t earn in thousands but in couple hundreads.

Lots of great advice, and comforting to know I’m already doing some of this with the limited knowledge I’ve got. Have to say that as comfortable or as uncomfortable as I am at this point in my life - I don’t have any deep desire to be as wealthy as this man.

Only thing that really bothered me about this book was being distracted the whole time wondering how his poor dad might’ve felt about the way he was portrayed. I think I might’ve been a bit hurt if I was the poor dad…

I also have to admit that I cringed every time he mentioned Trumpy...

tWhile driving for the Thanksgiving vacation, my husband and I listened to Robert Kiyosaki’s book, Rich Dad, Poor Dad, on CD. This book helped us to expand and to think outside the box when it came to money. It gave us many things to think about and other ways to view our finances. I enjoyed it so much that I not only listened to it twice on CD, but also read the book itself.

tIn his book, Kiyosaki reveals that he had two fatherly perspectives while growing up. His biological father maintained an attitude towards money that kept him struggling financially throughout his life. His friend’s father, who he spent a lot of time with, held a different perspective, and ultimately prospered. The two men regarded money differently, which caused young Robert to compare and ponder the different things each dad taught. In doing so, he had to choose which path to follow, rather than just blindly accept what he learned. He applied these principles in his life, and, like his rich dad, prospered financially.

tI enjoyed the way Kiyosaki introduced us to both fathers. He puts us in the scene of action, rather than lecturing us, and like he did as a boy, we learn from actions rather than words. This is more successful, I think, than most financial books, which while helpful can be a little boring.

tKiyosaki presents the six lessons that his rich dad taught him, and then expands on them. He provides examples and applications. Much of what he says caused me to change my normal perspective as I considered a different way of thinking. Similarly, as I read, I could see phrases that I and others have used that mark us as “poor.” In fact, over the Thanksgiving holiday, my dad unknowingly repeated about six or seven things that Kiyosaki’s “poor dad” had said! These statements have caused me to realign many of my thoughts on money.

tAs we drove, my husband and I frequently stopped the CD to discuss not only the changes in our thinking but also the inspiration that occurred to us. We began seeking opportunities, rather than just blindly accepting the fact that we were broke. We discussed business opportunities, and chances we could “work to earn” rather than “work for money.”

tIf this book has a failing, it is that it is more of an overview than a how-to. It left me wanting to learn more. However, I understand that Kiyosaki has several other books written that appear to dive into the subject more thoroughly, and I look forward to reading those. Still, this works as a great stepping-off point to make us reconsider our view of financial issues.

tThis was clear, well-written, and thought-provoking, and left me wanting to learn more. It made for great discussion with my husband, and I felt like we both grew closer as we considered the opportunities around us. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wishes to increase their financial knowledge.

The life changing book that has been a personal finance best seller for over a decade written by author Robert T. Kiyosaki. This little book has changed the lives of many people and their perspective on money, who are in misery, not knowing how to make ends meet due to lack of financial education. The contents of this book, tells the story of a young man, who is the author himself, being brought up by his natural father the conventional way of getting a job, saving every penny, working hard and climbing the corporate ladder. At the same time, he also had a "second father" who taught him a different way to view things and how to start from scratch and build his business into an empire.

I am sure many of us can relate to the story on the part where we were being brought up the conventional way to become workers. As much as we don't wish it to be that way, ironically, the education system plays a very big part in educating our fathers and their fathers to be trained into workers instead of educating them and inspire them to become business owners. Ignorance of other available choices, we are trapped in a eternal cycle of working for money, saving up and spending on wasting assets that constantly drains our finances and loses value over time. Welcome to the rat race! Unless we learn and educate ourselves on personal finance, we will be unknowingly stuck with only one way of thinking, and passing that knowledge on to the next generation. Talk about vicious cycle!

The main point of this book is to educate yourself on personal finance, which is to learn how to become financially independent by making money work hard for you and not you working hard to earn every single penny. It teaches you that you do not have to be a slave to money and to turn the situation to your advantage. There is no need for you to work for another person if you do not want to, in order to fulfill what you want in life. You are in control of your situation and you no longer need to take orders from anyone. You decide how much work you need. You are your own boss!

This book has certainly made a huge impact on my life, why not read it and see if it will change yours as well? Make that difference now.

This book goes on my shelf of four books I read over and over, books I read devotionally. It totally revolutionized my outlook not only on making money, but also on education. I wish everyone would read this. I wish the close-minded, those who graduated from whatever school they attended and haven't allowed themselves a new thought since, could break through the stone walls they have erected around their souls and let this in. This message can save our world! I am not exaggerating.

(May 24, 2016) I just finished re-re-re-reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad. From the first chapter it was like watching a fireworks show. The insights! Admittedly, I love seeing things in a new way, and I love having a different take on things. What Kiyosaki has to say on education should be broadcast, read, and studied, and all education systems in the world should take him into account. If a lot more people would read and take to heart his financial advice, I think the world's economy would be much better. Now I have to go out and live this. And I'm starting the book over tomorrow.

"مايعلمه الأثرياء و لا يعلّمه الفقراء و أفراد الطبقة الوسطى لأبنائهم عن المال! "
هذهِ العبارة في غلاف الكتاب زادت فضولي لقراءة الكتاب و بالصدفة اكتشفته في مكتبتي ، الكتاب يتحدث عن الثراء و عالم المال بأسلوب قصصي محبب ويتحدث فيه المؤلف عن تجربته وعن والده الثري و والده المتعلم .

الكتاب غيّر وجهة نظري عن المال و أعطاني كمية معلومات ما كنت لأجهد نفسي في البحث عنها لأنها ببساطة في مجال البيع والمال الذي أتجنب القراءة عنه ولكن المؤلف عرض فكرته بطريقة ممتعة لذلك أظن أنني سابدأ القراءة في هذا المجال.
الجميل في هذا الكتاب أنه لا يتحدث عن المال بشكل جشع جداً بل و تحدث عن أهمية العطاء بأن تعطي مهما كان مقدار عطائك شحيحاً فتأخذ مردوداً أعظم وكذلك مبدأ الخير و تعليم الآخرين وهو كان يسمي المردود من هذه الأعمال الخيّرة سحراً و ديننا علّمنا أنها بركة الله في المال .

الكتاب باختصار يتحدث عن الثراء الحقيقي غير السريع و كيف تصل إليه مع تصحيح لبعض المفاهيم التي تملأ رؤوسنا ، بالطبع أنصح بقراءة هذا الكتاب قد يغيّر نظرتك نحو المال لنظرة إيجابية و عملية أكثر و تبحث عن غايتك الحقيقية نحو سعيك إليه بأن تسخرّه كما يقول المؤلف ليعمل لديك لا أن تعمل لديه كما يحدث مع أغلبية الناس بسعيهم خلف وظائفهم و الترقيات وهلّم جراً ، وكلنا بحاجة للتعليم كما نحتاج أيضاً لثقافة المال.

بالطبع يستحق الخمس نجوم ومع ذلك لم أكتب عنه شيئاً يستحق لذلك أترك للقارئ الفرصة للحكم .
