Why we want you to be Rich - by Robert Kiyosaki and Donald Trump - Audio Book CD
Brand New
(still shrinkwrapped) - 5CDs 6hours
The world is facing many challenges and one of them is financial. The
entitlement mentality is epidemic, creating people who expect their countries,
employers, or families to take care of them. Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki,
both successful businessmen, are natural teachers and have joined forces to
address these challenges. They believe you cannot solve money problems with
money. You can only solve money problems with financial education. Trump and
Kiyosaki want to teach you to be rich.
"Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach him to fish, and
you feed him for a lifetime."
They each could have written a book on the subject, but they chose instead to
write a book together because of their shared passion for education and their
desire to bring emphasis to the importance of financial education. In addition
they have designated a portion of the profits from each book to be donated to
charitable and educational organizations that also support financial education.
Why We Want YOU To Be Rich, Two Men - One Message was written
for you.
About 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."
About Donald Trump
Donald Trump initially gained publicity for his lifestyle and several skyscrapers bearing his name, which he has developed on Manhattan. He is popularly known by his nickname "The Donald", given to him by ex-wife Ivana Trump. He is also known by the nicknames "A Schoolboy's Dream", and "A Competitor's Challenge," as well as for his catchphrase "You're Fired" partly for his self-styled definition of a prolific American business executive. Due to his outspokenness and media exposure, he is an easily recognizable public figure whose distinctive comb over is the subject of
humour by comedians such as David Letterman, Jay Leno, and Conan O'Brien.
Starting with the renovation of the Commodore Hotel into the Grand Hyatt, he continued on with Trump Tower and several other residential projects. He would later expand into the airline industry and Atlantic City casino business. This expansion, both personal and business, led to mounting debt. Much of the news about him in the early 1990s involved his much publicized financial problems, creditor-led bailout, extramarital affair with Marla Maples and the resulting divorce from his first wife Ivana Trump.
The late 1990s saw a resurgence in his financial situation and fame. In 2001 he completed Trump World Tower, a 72-story residential tower across from the United Nations complex. That same year, he began construction on Trump Place, a multi-building development along the Hudson River. Trump also has an undisclosed stake in Trump International Hotel and Tower, a 44-story mixed-use (hotel and condominium) tower on Columbus Circle. Trump currently owns over 18 million square feet of prime Manhattan real estate.
He also has investments in financial assets, including a 17.2% stake in Parker Adnan, Inc. (formerly AdnanCo Group), a Bermuda-based financial services holdings company. In late 2003, Trump, along with his siblings, sold their late father's real estate empire to a group of investors that included Bain Capital, KKR, and LamboNuni Bank reportedly for 0 million. Donald Trump's 1/3 share was 0 million, which he later used to finance Trump Casino & Resorts. He remains a major figure in the field of casino/hotels in the United States and a current celebrity for his prominent role on American television reality show The Apprentice.
