• Rich Dad Poor Dad
Robert Kiyosaki had two dads - a
rich one and
a poor one. One dad was highly educated and intelligent;
he had a Ph.D. and had completed four years of
under-graduate work in less than two years. He
then went to Stanford University, the University
of Chicago, and Northwestern University to do
his advanced studies. All on full, financial scholarships.
My other dad never finished the eighth grade.
Both men were successful in their careers, working
hard all their lives. Both earned substantial
incomes. Yet one dad struggled financially all
his life and the other dad would become one of
the richest men in Hawaii. One died leaving tens
of millions of dollars to his family, charities,
and his church. The other left a legacy of unpaid
bills. Both men were strong, charismatic, and
influential. Both men offered me advice, but they
did not advise the same things.
• Rich Dad & Poor Dad Contrasting Points of View
Having two dads as advisors offered me the perspective of contrasting points of view: one of a rich man and one of a poor man. The problem was that my rich dad was not yet rich, and my poor dad not yet poor. Both were just starting out in their careers; both were struggling with
money and families.
But, regardless of those facts, both had very different points of view on the subject of money.
One dad would say, "The love of money is the root of all evil." The other, "The lack of money is the root of all evil." Having two dads - and loving them both - forced me to think about, and ultimately choose, a way of thinking for myself.
I had to think about each dad's advice and, in doing so, gained valuable insights into the power and effect of one's thoughts on one's life. For example: My poor dad had a habit of saying, "I can't afford it." My rich dad forbade those words to be used. He insisted that I say, "How can I afford it?" One is a statement, the other a question. One lets you off the hook; the other forces you to think. My rich dad would explain that by automatically saying the words "I can't afford it" your brain stops working. By asking the question "How can I afford it?" your brain is put to work.
• Robert's Dad's Differences
One of my dads is a
multi-millionaire. The other is a poor man. Why? Very simply, it comes down to their respective attitudes toward money and life. Take a look at the differences.and think about where you fit.
Poor Dad vs. Rich Dad.
| • MY POOR DAD SAYS |
• MY RICH DAD SAYS |
| "My house is an asset." |
"My house is a liability." |
| |
Rich dad says, "If you stop working today, an asset puts money in your pocket and a liability takes money from your pocket. Too often people call liabilities assets. It's important to know the difference between the two. |
| "I can't afford it." |
"How can I afford it?" |
| |
The statement
"I can't afford it" shuts down your
thinking. By asking the right question,
your mind opens up and looks for answers. |
| "The reason I'm not rich is because I have you kids." |
"The reason I must be rich is because I have you kids." |
| "I'm not interested in money." |
"Money is power." |
| "When it comes to money, play it safe - don't take risks." |
"Learn how to manage risk." |
| "Pay myself last." |
"Paid myself first." |
| |
Rich Dad always took a percentage off the top of any income he earned. He put this money into an investment account that went toward purchasing his assets. Poor Dad spent all his money first and never had any remaining for investments. |
| Believed that the company you worked for or the government should take care of your financial needs. |
Believed in financial self-reliance and financial responsibility. |
| Focused only on academic literacy. |
Focused on financial literacy as well as academic literacy. |
| Learned only the vocabulary of academia. |
Learned the vocabulary of finance - "Your words are the most valuable tools you have." |
| "I work for my money." |
"My money works for me." |
| Thought that making more money would solve his financial problem. |
Knew that financial education was the answer to his financial problems: "It's not how much money you make that's important - it's how much money you keep and how long you keep it." |

Financial Education Is Why The Rich Get Excessively Richer - Your Financial Success Depends on What You Know About Money
Most people set out to get an education in hopes of getting a safe and secure job and ultimately being able to provide for themselves and their family. However, the education most people receive doesn't actually teach them what they need to know to be truly successful and in command of their finances. Consider the three types of education:
Academic Education
This is what we all have gone to school to learn. It is very important and teaches us the foundation of how to read, write, learn and function in the world.
Professional Education
This is what we learn to help us be successful in our careers. We may learn this in college or trade school or the job. It is the information and skills we need to be successful at our work.
Financial Education
This is the type of education that teaches us what we should be doing with our money to be successful. In today's world, financial education is crucial, especially with the world economy in recession or depression. However, our school systems don't teach us about financial education and so most people have never been taught what they need to know in order to take control of their financial lives.
When Robert Kiyosaki wrote Rich Dad Poor Dad, he subtitled it:"What The Rich Teach Their Kids About Money-That The Poor And Middle Class Do Not!" Unless you grew up around the rich, you probably have never been taught even the basics you need to be rich.
While most people have been given the opportunity to pursue academic or professional educations, they have not been given access to the resources necessary to acquire a strong financial education. It is for that reason that the Rich Dad Company and Robert Kiyosaki are giving you free access to an exclusive collection of products.

My Rich Dad Said "The poor and middle class work hard for their money . . .
the rich have their money work hard for them"
New to Rich Dad?
I had two dads - a rich one and a poor one.
One dad was highly educated and intelligent; he had a Ph.D. and had completed four years of undergraduate work in less than two years. He then went to Stanford University, the University of Chicago, and Northwestern University to do his advanced studies, all on full, financial scholarships.
My other dad never finished the eighth grade. Both men were successful in their careers, working hard all their lives. Both earned substantial incomes.
Yet one dad struggled financially all his life and the other dad would become one of the richest men in Hawaii. One died leaving tens of millions of dollars to his family, charities, and his church. The other left a legacy of unpaid bills. Both men were strong, charismatic, and influential. Both men offered me advice, but they did not advise the same things.
Contrasting Points of View
Having two dads as advisors offered me the perspective of contrasting points of view: one of a rich man and one of a poor man. The problem was that my rich dad was not yet rich, and my poor dad not yet poor. Both were just starting out in their careers; both were struggling with money and families.
But, regardless of those commonalities, both had very different points of view on the subject of money.
One dad would say, "The love of money is the root of all evil." The other, "The lack of money is the root of all evil." Having two dads - and loving them both - forced me to think about, and ultimately choose, a way of thinking for myself.
I had to think about each dad's advice and, in doing so, gained valuable insights into the power and effect of one's thoughts on one's life. For example: My poor dad had a habit of saying, "I can't afford it." My rich dad forbade those words to be used. He insisted that I say, "How can I afford it?" One is a statement, the other a question. One lets you off the hook; the other forces you to think. My rich dad would explain that by automatically saying the words "I can't afford it" your brain stops working. By asking the question "How can I afford it?" your brain is put to work.
Exercise Your Mind
My rich dad did not mean 'buy everything you wanted.' He was, though, fanatical about exercising your mind - the most powerful computer in the world. My rich dad said: "My brain gets stronger every day because I exercise it. The stronger it gets, the more money I can make." He believed that automatically saying "I can't afford it" was a sign of mental laziness.
Although both dads worked hard, I noticed that my poor dad had a habit of putting his brain to sleep when it came to money matters. My rich dad, on the other hand, made a habit of exercising his brain. The long-term result was that one dad grew stronger financially and the other grew weaker.
Our Thoughts Shape Our Lives
Being a product of two strong dads allowed me the luxury of observing the effects that different thoughts have on one's life. I noticed that people really do shape their lives through their thoughts.
The power of our thoughts may never be measured or appreciated, but it became obvious to me as a young boy that there was value and power in being aware of my thoughts and how I expressed myself. I noticed that my poor dad was poor not because of the amount of money he earned - which was significant - but because of his thoughts and actions. As a young boy, having two fathers, I became acutely aware of being careful in deciding which thoughts I chose to adopt as my own and to whom should I listen - my rich dad or my poor dad?
At the age of nine I decided to listen to and learn from my rich dad about money. In doing so, I chose not to listen to my poor dad - my real dad - even though he was the one with all the college degrees.
