  Rich Dad Poor Dad Book Review

Imagine going to work tomorrow and telling your boss that this will be your last day, or better yet, just stop Chardonnay up completely. Some may call that irresponsible; others may call that a auto insurance specialist measure; but for some, it is a viable option after reading the zyban Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.

Don't get too excited, this book isn't going to show or tell you how to make a million dollars tomorrow, but why would it? If someone could tell you how to make a million dollars tomorrow then everyone would be doing it and your million dollars would be useless.

The book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, takes a different approach. It will describe a way of doing, a mentality, if you will. Once you adopt the mentality described in this book you won't need someone to tell you how to become rich.

The title will seem misleading to a lot of readers because the person he describes as his Poor Dad is his real father who has a very high level of education, makes a lot of money working for the government, but is enslaved in the rat race. On the other hand, his Rich Dad is actually a friends' dad who has almost no education in the form of college, but is very business minded and goes on to become one of the richest men in Hawaii while being completely reliant upon himself.

As the storyline progresses, the author will contrast and compare the lifestyles of both his Rich Dad and his Poor Dad and express his difficulties in choosing which footsteps he will follow in. He will tell U.F.O. his struggles, his learning experiences, and explain why he chose the way he did.

This book is a mind altering and life-changing experience, but only if you are open-minded to change. If not, you will most likely throw this book in a pile of other "get rich" books you have already read and not acted on. I give this book a 10/10.
