asked by imtheboss on November 18, 2006 11:54 AM
Growing up with two father figures, a Rich Dad and a Poor Dad, Robert T. Kiyosaki understood well the importance of financial planning. In this easy-to-read parenting guide, Kiyosaki and co-author Sharon Lechter design a step-by-step guide to moms and dads to explain to their children the basics of our financial economythe employees, the self-employed, the business owners, and the investors. The authors explain that providing children with financial problem-solving skills, can help to ensure a profitable future.

This isn't really a 260 page book, it's a 5 page pamphlet that repeats itself over and over.
Really there is nothing new here if you've read Rich Dad Poor Dad, beyond a shameless marketing co-promote for his games, other books and a few of his friends.
Overall I thought Rich Dad Poor Dad was a pretty good book. This book however made me realize that Mr. Kiyosaki really has discovered the secret to becoming rich - write one half way decent book and then milk it as long as you can with other related books and products.

Great audio book. Gives you information to help you teach your kid about money, and ways to keep you from over indulging your kids.

The author suggests that parents empower children to take control
of their finances early in life. The author challenges us to turn
education about money into wealth and cash flow. Children are
encouraged to seek professional careers and to begin small
businesses to ensure cash flow well into retirement. The author's
Kolbe Index seeks to train people to analyze facts, formulate
follow-up scenarios, start projects quickly/efficiently and implement rational solutions devoid of analysis paralysis problems.
This work is well worth the money for the information content
provided.

I did find the book interesting, but I don't think that teens my age will find a lot of interest in it.
I gave it a 3 star because even though i didn't follow through the book, i felt that the author made a lot of good point for parents. I think the author really knows what he is talking about. I also gave it a 3 star because the way his teaches parents about teaching their kids about finace is through his own experience. So i gave it a 3 star because i found some interest in the book rather than none at all.

Thank goodness it wasn't in slow-motion!
This is the fourth book of Mr. Kiyosaki's I have read. The ideas in all of these books could have fit in to one.
So why read this one? I couldn't tell ya
