Taking to heart the message that the poor and middle class work for money, but the rich have money work for them, the authors lay out a financial philosophy based on the principle that income-generating assets always provide healthier bottom-line results. Reviews In this solid collection of practical advice on how to become a millionaire, Kiyosaki (Rich Dad’s Guide to Investing) adds to his rapidly growing library of well-received works on achieving financial freedom. Built on his number one rule of genuinely understanding the difference between assets (income-producing property) and liabilities (bank-owned mortgage), he reveals lessons learned from his “rich dad” (the entrepreneur father of his childhood friend), e.g., the rich do not work for money (money works for them), the rich mind their own business (not merely working at a profession), and invest time in learning financial literacy (mostly not learned in school). With the contrasting philosophy from his poor dad his own highly educated but debt-ridden, asset-poor professor father this approach clearly is head and shoulders above the gamut of countless other financial advice titles that merely focus on how financial tools work. The always crisp narration by Richard M. Davidson maintains attention to this important book, which all twentysomethings should be forced to listen to in its entirety. Be forewarned; listeners will have to acknowledge self-responsibility for their own financial problems that yet another, still higher-paying job will not solve. Without question, this is absolutely essential for all libraries. Dale Farris, Groves, TX Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.
