"Where is it?"
"In my computerIt's been there for years in random piecesI add to it occasionally but I've never gotten around to put it all togetherI began writing it after my other book became a best seller, but I never finished the new one
And in pieces it wasAfter reading the scattered sections, I decided the book had merit and needed to be shared, especially in these changing timesWe agreed to co-author Robert's book
I asked him how much financial information he thought a child neededHe said it would depend on the childHe knew at a young age that he wanted to be rich and was fortunate enough to have a father figure who was rich and willing to guide himEducation is the foundation of success, Robert saidJust as scholastic skills are vitally important, so are financial skills and communication skills
What follows is the story of Robert's two dads, a rich one and a poor
one, that expounds on the skills he's developed over a lifetimeThe contrast between two dads provides an important perspectiveThe book is supported, edited and assembled by meFor any accountants who read this book, suspend your academic book knowledge and open your mind to the theories Robert presentsAlthough many of them challenge the very fundamentals of generally accepted accounting principles, they provide a valuable insight into the way true investors analyze their investment decisions
When we as parents advise our children to "go to school, study hard and get a good job," we often do that out of cultural habitIt has always been the right thing to doWhen I met Robert, his ideas initially startled meHaving been raised by two fathers, he had been taught to strive for two different goalsHis educated dad advised him to work for a corporationHis rich dad advised him to own the corporationBoth life paths required education, but the subjects of study were completely differentHis educated dad encouraged Robert to be a smart person
