Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids about Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!
Author: Robert T Kiyosaki
Sinopse:
April 2022 marks the 25th anniversary of the personal finance classic Rich Dad Poor Dad, which is still ranked as the #1 Personal Finance book of all time. Although 25 years have passed since its first publication, readers will find that very little in the content of the book has changed — and for good reason. While the world around us is changing at a rapid pace, the lessons about money and the principles of Rich Dad Poor Dad remain the same. Today, as money continues to play a key role in our lives, the messages in Robert Kiyosaki’s international bestseller are more timely and relevant than ever.
Milestones
As we celebrate this milestone, a new section has been added on the importance of milestones, but the integrity of the original content has been preserved. This demonstrates that the book has truly stood the test of time. The sidebars throughout the book (updated for the 20-year edition) have been revised again, but the core principles that parents and grandparents who embraced Robert’s story and messages 25 years ago continue to share with new generations. These generations have found that its timeless wisdom and practical lessons can be applied to anyone’s life and their vision for a future that includes taking control of their finances.
People of all cultures and countries celebrate milestones. We use these moments to measure time, track progress, reflect on the lessons we’ve learned, and celebrate achievements. They give meaning to our life journey, integrating past, present, and future… looking back at where we started, where we are today, and what the future holds.
In the quarter-century since Rich Dad Poor Dad was first published — on April 8, 1997 — many things in our world have changed. But the urgent need and power of financial education remain the same. Money is still a mainstay of our lives, whether we like it or not, and technology has brought speed and innovation to the world of finance. In an ever-changing world, we can all still become smarter about money and learn as much as we can to secure our future.
