If you have no financial education, then get out of debt. If you are educated, then get as much debt as possible. Profits will soar.

I’m free to do exactly what I want, when I want, where I want. I can stop working if I want to. Money buys me freedom.

About stock trading (advice Martha Stewart unfortunately followed):
The reason you want to have rich friends who are close to the inside is because that is where the money is made. It’s made on information. ...the sooner you know, the better your chances are for profits with minimal risk. That is what friends are for.

“When I occasionally come up short. I still pay myself first. I let the creditors and even the government scream.”

This guy is self proclaimed expert? Somehow, I think Dave Ramsey would disagree with him. Im not familiar with the guy but he sounds like a self promoter to me.

This is the guy that did the "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" books, tapes, seminars, etc. If I remember correctly, a lot of his claims have been debunked.

Only "a lot" have been debunked ???

I suppose on which of his claims we're talking about.

The claims he made up, the ones he stole or those he contradicts in later works.

John T. Reed's analysis of Robert T. Kiyosaki's book Rich Dad, Poor Dad (http://www.johntreed.com/Kiyosaki.html)

That is the definitive site debunking that ignorant fool that the MLMers like Kerry Lee Hein and Chris Doyle drool over. It is a hilarious read! Enjoy!

It is unfortunate that Mr Kiyosaki and/or those behind him have so successfully been able to remove most of the records of his previous history from the 'net.

I often wonder how the readers of his works would react to finding out all about his previous life as the owner of the "Money and You" and its' offshoots "personal development" workshops and seminars.

v-e-r-r-r-r-y strange goings on in that era of Kiyosakis' life.

All in all, those responsible have done a remarkable erasure job, considering "Money and You" was the subject of an expose by the Australian version of the "60 Minutes" program and subsequent reaction by the New South Wales state government preventing any further state government with the program.

There have been persistent questions, as well, over an extended period, questioning whether the source of Mr Kiyosakis' supposed wealth was, in fact, his wife, Kim and not he, as is often claimed.

A good investor can make money in any economy and is not a slave to trends or markets. Education gives complete freedom from market forces.

The five “g’s” are the things you need to survive any economic crash. They are: Gas, Grubb, Ground, Guns and Gold.

For the educated, an economic crash is the best time to get rich. Guess what? The crashing is not over.
