If his classes are anything like this book then he has nothing to offer but vague guru statements that don't get you anywhere. It's one thing to mention it at the end as if to say "If you want to learn more check these out" but it's probably the last 1.5-2 hours of the book is him selling his stuff. The last third of the book was him constantly selling his real estate classes and board game. It's like if you were to buy a book about training your dog and the book just kept coming back to saying, "I'm not going to tell you how to train your dog, that is something you are going to have to learn on your own." You'd find the book pretty useless. After every backpedal he would say, "You need to build your financial education up." Yeah I know that's why I'm listening to an audiobook about finance. This was essentially the whole book, "I got rich off of gold and real estate but I'm not saying you should buy either of those", "401Ks are evil and designed to make you poorer but I'm not saying 401Ks are bad", "Unions want to work less and be paid more but I'm not saying unions are bad". Did you know that Robert Kiyosaki predicted the 2008 Financial Crisis? Well if you didn't, he tells you it about a hundred times in this book. But this book is just a repetition of that and offers nothing new. Know the difference between an asset and a liability, try to obtain more assets than liabilities and gain cash flow. Although the book goes on a long tangent to sell Kiyosaki's board game, there are some good core principles in it. I will start off by saying I enjoyed Rich Dad, Poor Dad. The new Republican party represents the worst of corruption, and the lunatic fringe. If these guys really cared about balancing the national budget, they would be endorsing Libertarian candidates like Gary Johnson who embody what the Republican party used to be. How many times has he filed for bankruptcy? I could be a billionare too if I didn't have to payback the money that I lost. The author keeps referencing the other book he wrote with "The Donald." Donald Trump needs to have a coherent thought, STFU with the ignorant comments, and continue milking his current scams until he goes bust and files for bankruptcy again. What was particularly laughable was that I'm supposed to believe that Robert Kiyosaki and Donald Trump want me to be rich. The rest was a blatant republican party endorsement from an ultra arrogant assclown. The most important tips in this book were about what it takes to find investment property and continuing one's financial education. These five unfair advantages are the outcomes of real financial education. This book is about the five unfair advantages a real financial education offers. This book explains why the rich get richer, paying less in taxes, while the middle class shrinks - with many losing jobs, homes, and retirement-and paying more in taxes. This book is about how debt and taxes make the rich richer…and why debt and taxes makes the poor and middle class struggle. This book is about real financial education. What does school teach you about money? In most cases, the answer is “Not much.” If there is any financial education, the courses are taught by financial planners and bankers… the agents of Wall Street and the big banks, the very people that caused and profited from the financial crisis. In true Rich Dad style, readers will be challenged to understand two points of view, and experience how financial knowledge is their unfair advantage. Education becomes applied knowledge, a powerful tactic with measurable results. Robert’s fresh approach to his time-tested messages includes clear, actionable steps that any individual or family can take, starting with education. They are encouraged to act beyond their concept of limited options and challenge the preconception that they will struggle financially all of their lives. Listeners are advised to stop blindly accepting that they are "disadvantaged" people with limited options. In Unfair Advantage: The Power of Financial Education Robert underscores his messages and challenges readers to change their context and act in a new way. On the heels of his 2010 New York Times bestseller Conspiracy of the Rich, Robert Kiyosaki takes a hard-hitting look at the factors that impact people from all walks of life as they struggle to cope with change and challenges that impact their financial world.
