jaydub,

So do we agree, on the following 2 things?

1. The RDPD "story" is a work of fiction
2. Some people have benefited from reading the RDPD "story"

... and assuming we agree...

then why when someone is talking about #2, is it necessary for you to focus on #1?

FWIW, from the first five minutes of reading RDPD, I thought it was pretty clear that the "Rich Dad/Poor Dad" thing was just a storytelling device.

So while I also don't think much of the book, I have to chuckle when people act as if there's been this big deception by Kiosaki about "Rich Dad."

I also heard that the "Ten Minute Manager" was not a real person, and that there weren't actually two little actual mice who had their Cheese Moved. I demand an explanation for this outrageous deception!

Maybe John T Reed can get on the investigative journalism trail of Sniff and Scurry next.
