You Need to Read Rich Dad Poor Dad and Start Improving Your Money Situation Today

This really is one of those books I wish I had discovered years ago, as far as books go it's a short one, however it is absolutely packed full with the knowledge everyone should have from an early age, but it's never too late to make a start. The book is Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, I bought my copy from Amazon and I finished it quickly. Rich Dad Poor Dad is the starting point for anyone looking to control their monetary future and improve their lifestyle.

Robert Kiyosaki gained his unique perspective through two opposite influences during his childhood. Poor Dad was his well educated farther, while Rich Dad was the farther of his best friend. I think most people will relate to Poor Dad in one way or another, as his story is the traditional one of get a good education get a good job with benefits and play it safe, with the consequence of never having any free time or money. WhileRich Dad could be assumed to be an unscrupulous man who only ever thinks about money and is therefore morally corrupt. These stereotypes are pretty normal and should be disregarded, as the book should be read with an open mind.

The book breaks down in to 10 chapters, and each one is insightful and will turn your perspective on its head. You will come to learn that the majority work for money while the rich make money work for them, the importance of owning assets that generate a passive income, and that the single best asset any individual has is their own mind.

One thing the book made me aware of was that McDonald's owns more real estate than the Catholic Church, wow how things have changed in the last 70 years alone is amazing! All I can say is make the time to read this book and apply it to your life for a more secure future.
