Personal-finance author and lecturer Robert Kiyosaki developed his unique
economic perspective through exposure to a pair of disparate influences:
his own highly educated but fiscally unstable father, and the multimillionaire
eighth-grade dropout father of his closest friend. The lifelong monetary
problems experienced by his "poor dad" (whose weekly paychecks, while respectable,
were never quite sufficient to meet family needs) pounded home the counterpoint
communicated by his "rich dad" (that "the poor and the middle class work
for money," but "the rich have money work for them"). Taking that message
to heart, Kiyosaki was able to retire at 47.
Rich Dad, Poor Dad,
written with consultant and CPA Sharon L. Lechter, lays out his the philosophy
behind his relationship with money. Although Kiyosaki can take a frustratingly
long time to make his points, his book nonetheless compellingly advocates
for the type of "financial literacy" that's never taught in schools. Based
on the principle that income-generating assets always provide healthier
bottom-line results than even the best of traditional jobs, it explains
how those assets might be acquired so that the jobs can eventually be shed.

Attitude towards risk determines acquisition of wealth, according to Kiyosaki,
a financial lecturer and millionaire. Fear of risk keeps you in the house-and-bills
"rat trap," unable to escape. Short fore- and afterwords by the Hawaiian-born
Kiyosaki frame a serviceable reading by British actor Hoye. Sounding American,
Hoye makes little attempt to add zip to this economics discourse. Reading
from a script, his narration is unmemorable, but it successfully conveys
the intended monetary advice. The random musical bridges do not correspond
to sections or chapters. A.G.H. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine--

same."
