Summary: I wish I could rate this lower - Kiyosaki is dangerous
Review: Anyone who tells you a house is a liability is wrong. Too many platitudes that sound good but mean nothing. Talk to a good CPA or tax attorney. If you are an employee & your corporation buys you a gold watch, that's income. What's more, the corporation used income to buy the watch. So if you are the corporation & you buy yourself a watch, you pay corporate tax on the corporate income & personal tax on the income represented by the watch. Foolish.

A key indicator to me is the late nite infomercials this guy is running. Too good to be true.

For a detailed ...

Summary: Interesting read
Review: I really liked this book. It is an accurate assessment of how most of us "live to work" as opposed to "work to live." It's interesting to note that most of us are so busy working for others that we don't have time to step back and make an assessment of where we are and where we're heading. I highly recommend this book to everyone. I wish I had read this 10-15 years ago. It would have helped me by opening my eyes to what's really going on. I have taken some steps to adjust my habits and thinking, because of this book. I have started talking to financial professionals in getting a handle on my financial and investment strategies and looking at generating income differently. I also looked at the CASHFLOW game and considered buying it...but unfortunately, the price is too high. ... END

Summary: BE-DO-HAVE
Review: I've virtually inhaled every one of Robert's books. Throughout my life I've intuitively felt that working hard for money was wrong, it's been such a refreshing breath of new understanding to have someone put those thoughts and feelings into words! Thank you Mr. Kiyosaki!

If you feel the inequity of working hard as an Employee or Self-employed person, making Business owners and Investors rich, and want to know how you can change your quadrant, I can't recommend this book highly enough.

Open your eyes and your mind to the reality school and society has hidden from you.

Summary: Strategy to Wealth Accumulation
Review: Among all of Robert Kiyosakis' books, I consider this book as the best. This books explains why rich people get richer and the poor even poorer. It lays out the bare facts and goes in detail to explain the "E,S,B,I" classes and how to move from one class to the other. In this book, readers will learn how to build your income streams without paying taxes and how to grow your asset .The author repeatedly mentions the use of real estate to grow his wealth and the setting up of corporations to protect his asset. I giving this book 4 out of 5 because the author keeps repeating his points thoroughout the whole book. This tends to put you off and the constant comparison between his rich dad and poor dad which is also repeated makes it very predictable.

In spite of this flaw, this book should be read by all those who are want to have financial freedom. His methods may not be the norm but if you follow his rules, then the path becomes even closer.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hard to choose
Review: The author write it with very few words. This book is a real inspiration for everyone. But when you really making decision according to the writer. It will be very hard.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic
Review: Teachs how to THINK about money-- a badly needed skill in today's world.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: His best book so far
Review: Follows on well from "Rich Dad, Poor Dad". The book is all about explaining the quadrants that our money comes from. It explains the easy quadrants and the hard slog quadrants and helps you work out which quadrant you want your money to come from. It is an easy to read book and probably his best.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than Rich Dad, Poor Dad!
Review: Rich Dad, Poor Dad was an excellent book, but a little redundant in places. Cash Flow Quadrant, on the other hand, concisely states the concepts of Rich Dad, Poor Dad and then adds very helpful depth and breadth.

Kiyosaki's financial paradigm is simple yet profound. Everything we own is an asset or a liability. Assets put money into our pockets and can include things such as investments, rental properties, etc. Liabilities take money out of our pockets and include things such as mortgages, auto loans, etc. Our financial goal should be to own more assets than liabilities, in which case the cash flow into our pockets is positive. Kiyosaki's genius is in his ability to distinguish between true assets and liabilities, revealing that many things commonly considered to be assets are actually liabilities.

Owning liabilities enslaves us to the almighty dollar by forcing us to work harder in order to replace the money flowing out of our pockets. Assets, on the other hand, bring freedom from financial slavery. If you want this freedom, Cash Flow Quadrant is an excellent place to start!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Brilliant concept and explanation
Review: I certainly enjoyed this book; as usual Kiyosaki dictates good financial advice in simplistic terms.

It took my perception of money to another level. I however believe he should have included the next book with this one (too short)...

I have created long-term and short-term personal financial goals, which I hope to achieve.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: good
Review: This book is clumsy a lot of the time, but it's message is original and helpful. Original in that it relates how the world is not fair, and that you should get on the side where the advantages are. (A lot of business books try and rationalize how poor people "deserve" their poverty. This book says, "Be rich. It's better.") He sets forth the idea that we are leaving the industrial age, and entering the information age. If you don't believe him, read a book he recommends "The Worldly Philosophers : The Lives, Times, and Ideas of the Great Economic Thinkers" -- by Robert L. Heilbroner. At least the first part. It paints the economic stages of human history, and may make what Kiyosaki sets down here more comprehensible.
