Kiyosaki - Worldclass Educator
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.
I read "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" in 2001, followed by this book, "Cashflow Quadrant", and they started to change the way I look at life. I was upset and disappointed that they didn't change my life more quickly (I just couldn't seem to figure out to make the whole passive income thing work). I was angry at Kiyosaki for writing a book that made me want something so badly without telling me how to do it.
When I tell the truth, however, since 2001 I have engaged in an entirely different fabric of conversation regarding money and employment, and through my own journey, I have now abandoned everything to be an entrepreneur (and I don't mean self-employed staring down the barrel of a business that will forever require me full-time). When I left Colorado, where I have been a resident for sixteen years, to move to California and join a friend of mine in executing what I see as a brilliant business plan, I told my friends and family, "We will make this business win no matter what! And if we don't, one thing is for sure: I will own and operate businesses and invest the money they make for me forever more. No more job-seeking. I am a creator of jobs, not a consumer of them!"
Without the help of Robert Kiyosaki, a brilliant educator, I never would have known that this was possible. I would have continued on like a lemming, seeking paychecks and hoping for a "big break" to come in and spice up my financial picture.
This book might not change your life quickly, and if you've already been thinking from the mind of a business owner/investor, it may not change your life at all, but if you are wondering if there is something more to life than collecting your paycheck, saving for retirement, and hoping the economy treats you and your family right, this is the book for you.
