Listen to sample
“One dad would say, ‘The love of money is the root of all evil.’ The other, ‘The lack of money is the root of all evil.’” … “One dad had a habit of saying, ‘I can’t afford it.’ The other dad forbade those words to be used. He insisted I say, ‘How can I afford it?’” ~ Robert Kiyosaki from Rich Dad, Poor Dad
Can you believe that Robert Kiyosaki has written 18 books in the Rich Dad, Poor Dad series that have sold over (gasp!) 26 million copies?!? Yep. And, as with all success stories, there’s a reason. Kiyosaki has a knack for getting right at the heart of the issue and in his simple, unpretentious prose, he captures our attention and gives us some powerful ideas to think about and implement into our lives--addressing what has to be one of the most challenging arenas for all of us: money.
In this PhilosophersNote, we’ll look at how Kiyosaki juxtaposes his biological, educated, government-employed father who always struggled financially (“Poor Dad”) with his best friend’s entrepreneurial, wealthy father (“Rich Dad”) and check out his Big Ideas about how the rich think more than a little differently than the poor and the middle class. And, of course, you’ll be inspired and empowered to get your rich thinking cap on. :)
