Top 30 Valuable Lessons from Rich Dad Poor Dad
By Robert T. Kiyosaki
In this book, Robert Kiyosaki talks about his two dads one is his biological father and the other is the father of his friend Mike.
In Robert’s eyes, his father is an epitome of a poor man one who spends his entire life dependent on a single source of income.
Contrary, his friend’s father happens to be a college dropout. However, he is always open to opportunities, has multiple sources of income, and makes the money work for him.
However, that doesn’t mean that Kiyosaki frowns upon a college education and is suggesting you drop out. His only point is that formal education only teaches us how to make money but not how to manage and grow it.
