I was very much raised in a poor dad, puritan work ethic, buy nice cars on credit with no assets, work hard for somebody else and someday retire mentality. This is how most of middle/upper middle class america operates. Its a damned shame. This book opened my eyes to that and made me drastically change my ways and also my outlook on money. Now my mission in life is to generate as much passive income as possible. To live far below my means and have my Passive Income exceed my Expenses and acheive Financial Freedom.

Okay, let's revisit:

-Spend your money on assets
-Don't increase your liabilities
-Put your money to work for you

[/ QUOTE ]

Yeah, I covered everything you said with those three points.

cool dude, the point is...if i had read your summary i wouldn't have made any changes, it wouldn't have made sense/sunk in etc. he vividly illustrates what all of those mean w/ stories, definitions, examples and motivational rhetoric that can be highly effective.

is TOP worthless because it can be summed up as:

-Use math in making poker decisions
-Read your opponents
-Don't play like a donkey

[/ QUOTE ]

No, because there is math in the book.

Is there any math in Kiyosaki's book? Any formulas, maybe descriptions of PE ratios or something?

Oh, right. No.
