Rich Dad Poor Dad......creditability debate

These arguments are really stupid, obviously by unsuccesful people who instead of working to become successful they attack Robert Kiyosaki who is very successful. Anyone who has reasd his books, attended his seminars or heard him on tv would know that the companies he has taken public are foreign mining companies in China and Canada. The Canadian one never found oil, the chinese one did find oil. Wow you people are dumb. Have fun being unsuccessful and attacking people who have achieved what you are unable to.

I think the book serves more as a inspirational story. Finishing it, i wanted to invest right then and there. What he does say is true, many people who don't have a lot money really aren't educated as to what to do with it when they do get it (generalized statement)..I don't particularly agree with is statement on "paying yourself first"..I find this impossible..if you want to have a roof over your head and eat everyday you have to pay for your normal stuff...I just think the book needs to be taken as an inspirational, this is what I did..not a how to get rich quick book...

that is all

Regarding the whole situation where the guy foolishly gave his money away to charity...

I believe that people should first build themselves up and achieve their financial goals -- only then should they overflow and start to give.

When you earn more, you'll eventually be able to give more.

Think about that...
