Why We Want You to Be Rich should have been better than it was. It was inspiring, yet the ideas conflicted.Kiyosaki is a millionaire who made his fortune from educational products. Trump is a savvy billionaire who can reach further.I did enjoy it, but the true inspiration came from Trump. Half the book was just ‘fluff’ which was interesting, but not if you were already familiar with both Trump and Kiyosaki.
The last 50 or so pages proved to be truly inspiration. I haven’t stopped since reading it! I have subscribed to business feeds from the magazines both writers talked about so as to familiarize myself with the concepts better.
I was disappointed with Kiyosaki stating how he didn’t understand computer technology. This one missed skill is what separates himself from Trumps. Trumps educational products and branding are far superior and his message is a lot stronger.
If you are still a fan of Kiyosaki, this book will help you. If you are bored of his tired writing and falsifications of his past, you may struggle through his half of the chapter. By falsifications, I am referring to an issue of Wealth Creator in which he stated his ‘Rich Dad’ is influenced by 7 people.
