		<description>I admire Robert&#039;s sincere initiative to educate the mankind on financial education.  This serious topic seem to be lacking big time in our educational system.

It&#039;s unfortunate for those that don&#039;t get the messages, perhaps there&#039;s a conflict of interest in their profession.

Understanding what&#039;s going on today, and where we are heading in the near future is vital.  

We nearly hit the 2nd Great Depression in Q1 last year.  How did that look like for those that rely on 401k, Social Security, Medicare had that occurred?

Could a similar type of this serious instance happen again in the future?  You bet!
The key question is, are you prepared for it, or are you still relying on the default retirement plans I listed above?  If it&#039;s the latter, good luck!

The textbook &quot;Increase Your Financial IQ&quot; along w/ &quot;Conspiracy of the Rich&quot; are excellent, IMHO.  For those that still don&#039;t get the messages, who are still in denial that it&#039;s all talk, doom and gloom stories,  it&#039;s just unfortunate for them.

I personally learned a whole lot reading Robert&#039;s materials, along w/ Keith Cunningham&#039;s (one of Robert&#039;s Rich Dad).  I understand the importance of Financial Education, which I would mention again, is lacking big time in this country.  Yes, there&#039;s a conspiracy going on, and it&#039;s either you&#039;re in the know, or in denial and prefer to decode average information.

Just my .02 cents,
Sonny</description>

		<description>This is one of the worst books I have ever read... all the ideas in it can be summarized in maximum 10 pages!!!!  He keeps repeating and repeating the same ideas, which are maybe correct in a computer game not in real life.</description>

		<description>Mr. Clark,

Let me begin by saying that I&#039;m trying to restrain myself from calling you an idiot. Well, I just did. 

I may not agree with everything Mr. Kiyosaki is selling but, like his Poor Dad, he is first and foremost an EDUCATOR which is obviously something I can&#039;t say for you. 

Writing books does not dilute his earning potential. On the contrary, it increases it. Any idiot can see that. 

On a personal level, I&#039;ve never made much money in my life BUT, because of what Mr. Kiyosaki has taught us in his books, I have now put myself in position to achieve financial freedom. How, you ask? I simply tapped into my potential and have put my God-given abilities to good use. Now, as I continue to build for the future, it&#039;s just a matter of time before money starts falling from the sky. 

See, Mr. Clark? Everyone has a gift and Mr. Kiyosaki teaches us to tap into it. Some of the ideas he has given us are just steppingstones to achieve a greater goal. 

Keep up the good work, RK!

		<description>@ Ken - First of all, I would like to give you a penny for your thought.  There is no secret when it comes to making money.  It is a math formula.  

Make 1 product and sell it for double the cost of manufacturing it.  If it cost 1 dollar to make it, sell it for 2.  If two people want it, either make 2 products (like cars) or open up for bidding (like artwork).

With that in mind, Ryan, consider this, if the demand for the business product dies, the cash flow stops.  

Where better to put that money you accumulate from your business than land, if not for tax purposes but for finite demand.  

There is only so much land on Earth that as long as we keep growing our population, the demand for land will always go up.  

So in the end, demand for land equals increase in land value which has the greatest potentional for additional income with the least amount of taxes.

As Einstein said, its all relative. :)</description>

		<description>Perhaps ... but, I never invest with the idea of minimizing taxes as my prime objective.

Rather, businesses do one thing really well: produce free cash (if your business doesn&#039;t do this, then you really just have a job!).

Free cash is useless, except for three purposes:

1. Reinvesting in the business to make it grow even faster

2. Increased lifestyle for the owner

3. To fund property acquisitions (build up for a deposit and/or any paying mortgages if the rent doesn&#039;t).

Of these, guess which ones I like!</description>

		<description>AJC, I think your comment is interesting. Make money from a business and keep it in real estate - I&#039;m assuming this is because it is easier to shelter the money from certain taxes, and if done correctly the money will continue to earn passive income through rentals, leases, etc.?</description>
