DescriptionThe groundbreaking book Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert T. Kiyosaki offers readers a unique exploration into the contrasting financial philosophies of two influential figures in his life: his biological father, whom he refers to as his "Poor Dad," and the father of his best friend, his "Rich Dad." Through these two perspectives, Kiyosaki delves into the world of financial independence, revealing insights that challenge conventional beliefs about income and wealth.
At its core, the book elucidates that financial success is not reserved for those who secure high-paying jobs but rather for those who learn to make their money flow into wealth-building avenues. Kiyosaki shares how his Rich Dad taught him to view money as a tool for achieving financial freedom, as opposed to an end in itself. This powerful narrative exposes the misconception that earning a substantial salary is synonymous with achieving wealth. Instead, it advocates for having one's money work for them through smart investments and financial literacy.
The 25th Anniversary Edition brings a fresh perspective to the foundational concepts presented years ago. With Robert Kiyosaki's reflections, readers receive a modern assessment of how these principles have withstood the tests of time, amidst changes in global economics and investing landscapes. Through insightful sidebars and retrospective analysis, the book captivates a new generation of readers with its enduring relevance and urgent importance.
Within its pages, Rich Dad Poor Dad aims to spark a financial awakening, encouraging individuals to challenge longstanding beliefs and to redefine success by acquiring knowledge and financial acumen. The narrative proclaims:
- It dispels the myth that riches are unattainable without a high income.
- It questions the common assumption that a personal home is a definitive asset.
- It emphasises the importance of financial education that supplements or even surpasses traditional schooling.
- It clarifies the true definitions of assets and liabilities, providing clarity for financial planning.
- It offers guidance on imparting essential financial principles to children, ensuring their future economic security.
With candour and foresight, Kiyosaki invites readers to delve into a world where financial literacy becomes the cornerstone of wealth and independence. Prepare for a provocative read that is both educational and transformative, a must-read for anyone eager to take charge of their financial destiny.

Best known as the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad—the #1 personal finance book of all time—Robert Kiyosaki has challenged and changed the way tens of millions of people around the world think about money. He is an entrepreneur, educator, and investor who believes that each of us has the power to makes changes in our lives, take control of our financial future, and live the rich life we deserve. With perspectives on money and investing that often contradict conventional wisdom, Robert has earned an international reputation for straight talk, irreverence, and courage and has become a passionate and outspoken advocate for financial education. Robert's most recent books—Why the Rich Are Getting Richer and More Important Than Money—were published in the spring of last year to mark the 20th Anniversary of the 1997 release of Rich Dad Poor Dad. That book and its messages, viewed around the world as a classic in the personal finance arena, have stood the test of time. Why the Rich Are Getting Richer, released two decades after the international blockbuster bestseller Rich Dad Poor Dad, is positioned as Rich Dad Graduate School.
