About the authors
Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad - the international runaway bestseller that has held a top spot on the New York Times bestsellers list for over six years - is an investor, entrepreneur and educator whose perspectives on money and investing fly in the face of conventional wisdom. He has, virtually single-handedly, challenged and changed the way tens of millions, around the world, think about money.In communicating his point of view on why 'old' advice - get a good job, save money, get out of debt, invest for the long term, and diversify - is 'bad' (both obsolete and flawed) advice, Robert has earned a reputation for straight talk, irreverence and courage.Rich Dad Poor Dad ranks as the longest-running bestseller on all four of the lists that report to Publisher's Weekly - The New York Times, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal and USA Today - and was named "USA Today's #1 Money Book" two years in a row. It is the third longest-running 'how-to' best seller of all time.Translated into 51 languages and available in 109 countries, the Rich Dad series has sold over 27 million copies worldwide and has dominated best sellers lists across Asia, Australia, South America, Mexico and Europe. In 2005, Robert was inducted into Amazon.com Hall of Fame as one of that bookseller's Top 25 Authors. There are currently 26 books in the Rich Dad series.In 2006 Robert teamed up with Donald Trump to co-author Why We Want You To Be Rich - Two Men - One Message. It debuted at #1 on The New York Times bestsellers list.Robert writes a bi-weekly column - 'Why the Rich Are Getting Richer' - for Yahoo! Finance and a monthly column titled 'Rich Returns' for Entrepreneur magazine.Prior to writing Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert created the educational board game CASHFLOW 101 to teach individuals the financial and investment strategies that his rich dad spent years teaching him. It was those same strategies that allowed Robert to retire at age 47.Today there are more that 2,100 CASHFLOW Clubs - game groups independent of the Rich Dad Company - in cities throughout the world.Born and raised in Hawaii, Robert Kiyosaki is a fourth-generation Japanese-American. After graduating from college in New York, Robert joined the Marine Corps and served in Vietnam as an officer and helicopter gunship pilot. Following the war, Robert went to work in sales for Xerox Corporation and, in 1977, started a company that brought the first nylon and Velcro 'surfer wallets' to market. He founded an international education company in 1985 that taught business and investing to tens of thousands of students throughout the world. In 1994 Robert sold his business and, through his investments, was able to retire at the age of 47. During his short-lived retirement he wrote Rich Dad Poor Dad.
Donald J. Trump is the very definition of the American success story, continually setting the standards of excellence while expanding his interests in real estate, sports, and entertainment. He is a graduate of the Wharton School of Finance. An accomplished author, Mr. Trump has authored over fifteen bestsellers and his first book, The Art of the Deal, is considered a business classic and one of the most successful business books of all time. Mr. Trump has over eight million followers on social media and is a frequent guest across a variety of media platforms.

This is a most important and clearly written book that analyses many of the elements needed to achieve success in business. I only wish it had been available fifty years ago when I got started. Both authors relate their quite different experiences to reach similar conclusions and reflections about their successes and failures. They show that they share the grit and determination needed to succeed. This is a book that every parent and perhaps grandparent, who have good communications with their children should read and encourage the children to read. It should be readily available in schools and colleges for teachers and students to learn from. Young people who study this book and shape their plans on its recommendations and teaching should be well set to succeed in their endeavours provided they have the 'thumb' characteristics described. Messrs. Trump and Kyosaki must be congratulated for finding time, in their very busy lives, to collaborate and produce this very valuable book.

I literally had my mouth opened when reading the afterword saying that immigrants children aspire for opportunity while their parent often dream of job security and a socially safe life for them. These last words were so unexpected and so to the point with what I'm living. It further convinced me that this book was a God send for me.
When reading the parts written by Donald Trump, I was initially thinking things like : well, you're telling me stories like how you built the Trump tower and how you got scammed and had a multi-million dollars debt to pay. This is a wealthy-man problem, do you think somebody will lend me 1 million dollars in the first place ? I was thinking : This is so disconnected from real life, this guy had investment money and was rich from the beginning, I wish I had the same kind of problems to deal with.
Luckily I decided to refrain this mindset early in the book, and give him a chance by paying attention to what he was saying. And what I found was gold. There is a reason behind every example he is giving, and he explains the point he is trying to make every time. This guy knows what he is talking about and what it will take a normal person to get in the position where he is. He is everything but disconnected. Once again I insist, see this book as a book written by wise people who weighted every word to educate people on complicate matters. None of them needed to write this book, but we needed them to write it.
I've read this book in 3 evenings only. After reading it the first day, I turned off an offer for an executive position with significant shares that my guts and my entrepreneurship spirit has been alerting me about for a while. This is why I think this book was a god send. It is the kind of book that gets you moving if and give you the how to, how to do, and how to think provided that you are aligned with the way of seeing life of the author. This was my case.
I recommend this book to every person, and especially young person not simply thinking of starting a business, but actually working and moving to start it. Dreamers won't benefit, but you will.
Now I'm equipped to start my web-tech company.
