Rich Dad Poor Dad By Robert T. Kiyosaki

Description

Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!

What’s the real difference between working for money and making money work for you?

In Rich Dad Poor Dad, entrepreneur and investor Robert T. Kiyosaki shares the lessons he learned growing up with two father figures—his highly educated but financially struggling biological father (his “Poor Dad”) and his friend’s wealthy, self-made father (his “Rich Dad”).

This bestselling book contrasts their worldviews on earning, saving, investing, and financial independence. Through straightforward language and relatable examples, Kiyosaki debunks myths about money and offers a new financial philosophy rooted in asset-building, financial literacy, and entrepreneurial thinking.

Far from being a traditional finance book, Rich Dad Poor Dad shifts the reader’s mindset about work, wealth, and freedom. It encourages readers to focus on owning systems, learning about money, and achieving long-term independence—not just job security.

• The difference between assets and liabilities—and how to buy the former

• How to build passive income and escape the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle

• Why your mindset is your greatest financial asset
