Updated: Sep 19, 2023

The book describes the financial education Kiyosaki received from his "rich dad" (the father of his best friend) and his "poor dad" (his biological father). The book is written in the form of anecdotes and stories from Kiyosaki's childhood and early adulthood.


One of the primary lessons of the book is the importance of financial education and financial literacy. Kiyosaki argues that schools and traditional education do not focus enough on financial education, and that this lack of knowledge can be detrimental to one's financial life. Additionally, Kiyosaki emphasizes the importance of taking risks and investing in oneself in order to build wealth.





Some readers may find the writing style of Rich Dad, Poor Dad to be simplistic or anecdotal. However, the book has been praised for its accessibility and for the personal stories that help illustrate the financial lessons Kiyosaki is attempting to convey.


Overall, Rich Dad, Poor Dad has become a popular and influential book on personal finance and investing. It has been translated into dozens of languages and has sold millions of copies worldwide.
