I don’t think this book is actually five stars; i think it is more around 3 stars for the information it gives you。 It’s real advantage was how it made my mindset shift and how it has made me more curious about financial literacy。 The writing is very simple and easy to understand。 I like that he has listed other books to read。 i disliked his focus on attitude so much。 most of his lessons had to do with having the right frame of mind and felt repetitive after a while。 overall there were some good I don’t think this book is actually five stars; i think it is more around 3 stars for the information it gives you。 It’s real advantage was how it made my mindset shift and how it has made me more curious about financial literacy。 The writing is very simple and easy to understand。 I like that he has listed other books to read。 i disliked his focus on attitude so much。 most of his lessons had to do with having the right frame of mind and felt repetitive after a while。 overall there were some good lessons within it and it was a valuable read！。。。more

I genuinely believe that this book is applicable in the USA Neoliberalism system。 However for someone who lives in a third world country with different political， economical and social system it’s not。 Three takeaways from this book:1。 Don’t buy new car， or any car in general。2。 Assets are more important than liabilities （which is actually a good advice for someone in their 20s）。 3。 Be smart and avoid taxes。

Quite a good guide to thinking about money， although having already read quite a few finance books， there wasn't that much new here。 That's not necessarily a sign of the book's quality， but more to do with my past reading about the topic。 Still， I think this would have been worthwhile reading a few years ago， and it probably would have had a bigger impact on me then。 Interesting quotes:"One of the most common forms of laziness is staying busy。 Too busy to take care of your wealth， or your health Quite a good guide to thinking about money， although having already read quite a few finance books， there wasn't that much new here。 That's not necessarily a sign of the book's quality， but more to do with my past reading about the topic。 Still， I think this would have been worthwhile reading a few years ago， and it probably would have had a bigger impact on me then。 Interesting quotes:"One of the most common forms of laziness is staying busy。 Too busy to take care of your wealth， or your health， or your relationships。""If I pay myself first， I get financially stronger， mentally and fiscally。" （This is referring to the practice of putting a certain % of your pay check into investments right away， and then using the remainder for bills， etc。 It's a habit I've followed for the last year and a half， and it's been hugely useful。）One thing that was missing （in my opinion） was good advice on maximising your savings by cutting expenses - and， also， how to define a point of 'enough' when it comes to money。 Mr Money Moustache's blog still remains the best source of financial advice that I've ever read。 So if you do want to improve your financial game， I'd start there first。。。。more

If you search for the best non-fiction （business） books list， the one that is popular even today is “Rich Dad， Poor Dad” and after reading it， I understand why。 It’s one of the best books on finance and it changed my perspective of looking at money。Told in an interesting and engaging manner， Robert Kiyosaki advocates the importance of financial literacy。 By using anecdotes from his life and the lessons he learned from his two father figures， the author explains the difference between the mindset If you search for the best non-fiction （business） books list， the one that is popular even today is “Rich Dad， Poor Dad” and after reading it， I understand why。 It’s one of the best books on finance and it changed my perspective of looking at money。Told in an interesting and engaging manner， Robert Kiyosaki advocates the importance of financial literacy。 By using anecdotes from his life and the lessons he learned from his two father figures， the author explains the difference between the mindset of rich and poor regarding money。In this book， the author points out the traditional mistakes people make while handling their finances and how the educational system does not focus on financial literacy。 Therefore， he encourages people to learn about accounting， financial market， taxes and investing。One of the fascinating things that stands out in this book is the stark difference between the point of view of the rich and poor person of looking at money。 The rich dad sees money in a positive light which is at odds with the popular opinion about money。Overall， this is an informative book。 It made me interested in learning about finance and managing money in a better way。 If you want to learn about finance， I highly recommend this book。。。。more

إن هذا الكتاب يحفز الخلايا المالية فينا لكي تعمل بطريقة أكثر حماسا، تتجاوز الطرق التقليدية السائدة والمتعارف عليها بين أكثرية الناس。 فالكتاب بمثابة جرعة تحفيزية قوية للمضي قدما دون خوف أو تردد من أجل التحكم في المال وزيادة الثروة بطريقة أفضل وأحسن。 ومن أجل تحقيق هذا الهدف يقدم المؤلف مجموعة من النصائح العملية في كيفية الوصول إلى الثراء المالي من خلال خطط لا يعرفها الكثير من الناس。 وفيما يلي بعض تلك النصائح التي يقدمها للقراء، يقول:•• " يعد المال أحد أشكال القوة، لكن التعليم المالي هو القوة الأكب إن هذا الكتاب يحفز الخلايا المالية فينا لكي تعمل بطريقة أكثر حماسا، تتجاوز الطرق التقليدية السائدة والمتعارف عليها بين أكثرية الناس。 فالكتاب بمثابة جرعة تحفيزية قوية للمضي قدما دون خوف أو تردد من أجل التحكم في المال وزيادة الثروة بطريقة أفضل وأحسن。 ومن أجل تحقيق هذا الهدف يقدم المؤلف مجموعة من النصائح العملية في كيفية الوصول إلى الثراء المالي من خلال خطط لا يعرفها الكثير من الناس。 وفيما يلي بعض تلك النصائح التي يقدمها للقراء، يقول:•• " يعد المال أحد أشكال القوة، لكن التعليم المالي هو القوة الأكبر من المال。 "•• " الذكاء هو ما يحل المشاكل ويجلب المال، أما المال المفتقر إلى الذكاء فهو مال سيتبدد سريعاً。 "•• " إذا أردت أن تكون ثريا، فستحتاج إلى اكتساب المعرفة عن المال。 "•• " إن من يحوز المال هو من يضع القواعد。 "•• " إن أردت الحصول على مال أكثر، فما عليك سوى أن تغير من تفكيرك، فكل العصاميين بدأوا صغارا بفكرة، ثم حولوها إلى شيء عظيم。 " ***وفيما يخص المعاناة المالية التي يتخبط فيها الكثير من الناس يوضح المؤلف أنها تحصل في الأغلب نتيجة العمل طوال حياتهم عند شخص آخر، ولهذا سيجد العديد منهم أنهم يقتربون من أيامهم الأخيرة في العمل دون أن يمتلكوا شيئا يوازي سنوات عملهم وجهدهم。 وفي موضوع آخر يؤكد المؤلف أن العالم مليء بالموهوبين الفقراء، وهم في الأغلب فقراء ماليا أو يجنون أقل مما يستحقونه، ليس بسبب ما يعرفونه، بل بسبب ما لا يعرفونه، حيث يركزون على ترقية مهاراتهم التعليمية أكثر مما يركزون على ترقية مهاراتهم في العمل، ويضرب لذلك مثالا بشركة ماكدونالد، فيقول : （ حين أسأل طلبتي في الفصل: كم منكم يسعه طهو هامبورجر أفضل من ذاك الذي يطهوه ماكدونالد؟ يرفع أغلبهم يده، ومن ثم أطرح عليهم السؤال: فإن كان بوسع أغلبكم طهو الهامبورجر أفضل منه، فَلِمَ يجني هو ما لا يفوق ما تجنونه أنتم؟ إن الإجابة واضحة: فماكدونالد أكثر تفوقا في نظم العمل، والسبب في أن العديد من الموهوبين فقراء، هو أنهم يركزون على طهو هامبورجر أفضل فيما لا يعلمون سوى القليل عن نظم العمل。） ومن أجل توضيح فكرته أكثر يورد المؤلف القصة التالية: " عندما كنت في الپيرو مصاحبا أحد المنقبين عن الذهب، والذي كان في الخامسة والأربعين من عمره، طرحت عليه سؤالا عن سبب وثوقه بالعثور على أحد مناجم الذهب。 فاجأني قائلا: （ إن الذهب في كل مكان، لكن الناس هم الذين لم يتدربوا على العثور عليه 。） "ويعلق على ذلك قائلا: " إنني أقرر صحة هذا، ففي مجال العقارات بوسعي الخروج من منزلي، لأعود إليه وقد عقدت أربعا أو خمسا من الصفقات الرابحة، في حين يحدث للشخص العادي أن يعود خالي الوفاض حتى إن تفقد الأمكنة ذاتها، والسبب هو أنه لم يستغرق الوقت المطلوب لتنمية ذكائه المالي。 " ***ولعل النصيحة التالية تلخص فلسفة المؤلف المالية، وذلك حين يقول : " إن السبب الرئيسي لمعاناة الناس ماليا هو أنهم ينفقون سنوات في الدراسة دون أن يتعلموا شيئا عن المال。 والنتيجة أن الناس يتعلمون العمل لكسب المال لا السعي لجني المال من أجل جعله يعمل لأجلهم。 "إن الكتاب جدير بالقراءة لكل المتحمسين الذين يريدون تحسين وضعهم المال أو زيادة معرفتهم بطرق تحصيله。_________________#الأب_الغني_والأب_الفقير#روبرت_كيوساكي 。。。more

Great insight on how to change your thinking from “ I can’t afford this， to How can I afford this？” Also puts you in the mind of business owners and how people who create deals think。 As well as how LLC and Corporations actually work。 And how to think like an employer instead of thinking like an employee

A surprisingly thought provoking book。 The message on discipline in saving/investing and intelligent risk taking is not new。 It is， however， very well packaged。 Without the weak an irritating political analysis and daddy issues， I'd give it 5 stars。 A surprisingly thought provoking book。 The message on discipline in saving/investing and intelligent risk taking is not new。 It is， however， very well packaged。 Without the weak an irritating political analysis and daddy issues， I'd give it 5 stars。。。。more
