Brand New (still shrink wrapped): 3CDs

This is one of the best of the Rich Dad Poor Dad audios. The core idea in
this series is that being an investor or business owner gives one more freedom
and a higher upside than being someone else's employee or being an
owner-operator of a business. With vivid personal stories, the authors show that
many people, including the author's "poor" dad (an educational
administrator), choose working for others because of insecurity or misguided
trust in organizations. One builds true financial freedom by accumulating assets
that make money, especially rental property. Though others have offered this
advice, it's clearer and more potent here, and worth listening to many times if
your financial insecurity or complacency needs a push.
About the Author Robert Kiyosaki
Born and raised in Hawaii, Robert is fourth-generation
Japanese-American. He comes from a prominent family of
educators. His father was the head of education for the State of
Hawaii. After high school, Robert was educated in New York. Upon
graduation, he joined the U.S. Marine Corps and went to Vietnam
as an officer and a helicopter gunship pilot.
Returning from war, Robert went to work for the Xerox
Corporation and in 1977 started a company that brought to market
the first nylon and Velcro "surfer" wallets, which
grew into a mega-million dollar worldwide product.
In 1985 Robert founded an international education company that
taught business and investing to tens of thousands of students
throughout the world.
Retiring at the age of 47, Robert continued with his love of
investing. It was during his "retirement", he wrote
Rich Dad Poor Dad, the #1 New York Times bestseller. Robert
followed with Rich Dad's CASHFLOW Quadrant and Rich Dad's Guide
to Investing - all 3 books have been on the top 10 best-seller
lists simultaneously on The Wall Street Journal, USA Today and
The New York Times. In January 2001 Robert launched Rich Kid
Smart Kid.
Concerned about the growing gap between the "haves"
and "have nots" Robert created the patented board game
CASHFLOW® 101 to teach individuals the same financial
strategies his Rich Dad spent years teaching him...the same
financial strategies that allowed Robert to retire at the age of
47.
Although Robert's business is real estate, trading and building
businesses, his true passion is teaching. He is a highly
acclaimed speaker on financial education and his work has
inspired audiences worldwide. Robert has appeared on Oprah and
other top national TV and radio shows.
Robert has a profound message for those wanting to improve their
financial lives. That message is: "With every dollar in
your hand, you have the power to choose to be rich, poor or
middle class."
