Rich Dad Poor Dad Book Review
Rich Dad Poor Dad is my third financial book, the BEST seller of New York Times and The Wall Street Journal, is written by Robert T.Kiyosaki with Sharon L. Lechter.
This book is a starting point for anyone looking to gain control of their financial future. The authors explain why we cannot rely on job income if we want to be rich by telling the story between his rich dad and his poor dad. His poor dad asked him to study hard and work hard for money; His rich dad asked him to learn how to let money work for him.
Ten chapters have been covered in this book and titles have been shown below. A lot of examples have been mentioned in the books in order to let the readers fully understand about the theories.
Since this book is written in 1997, some of the information is outdated. Therefore, some of the advice should be taken as reference only. However, this book is still strongly recommended for investing beginner. After reading this book, your mindset will be totally different, if you are still thinking that working hard can make you rich.
