Book Reviews of Rich Dad Poor Dad
Good Read! Review by PriyankaWhat I have learnt is that it is very important to think about our own finances on own and if we can do that we will be wealthy. It is a very important to invest in knowledge.
I picked to read this book just sometime after reading Invest The Happionaire Way by Yogesh Chabria - CNBC. I liked Rich Dad and it is many ideas are pointing me in the same direction as the earlier book I read. Rich Dad focus is more real estate though. But the idea is same.
I liked both the books - but as an Indian I connected more with Yogesh's Happionaire because the language is closer to me and so are the examples, stories and locations.
Good read!
Rich Dad Poor Dad Review by RSI was a little disappointed by this book. I agree with Priyanka that the focus is so heavily on real estate. It makes it a less applicable to average person as a result. I'll read it again sometime, but it didn't really engage me that well.
