This episode is part 4 of a 4-part book series where I’ll be sharing and discussing advice from my favorite books on entrepreneurship, money & success, and how the advice from these books are helping me make more in my business this year.
This episode is called "what separates the rich from the poor", and the book I’ll be sharing from is called Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki.
Kiyosaki advocates the importance of financial literacy, financial independence, financial intelligence, and building wealth through investing in assets and starting and owning businesses.
He grew up learning from two fathers - his own father, who struggled financially even though he was very educated and had a high position in his job, and his friend’s father, who didn’t finish high school but left his son a financial empire.
Let’s get into the difference between the mentalities of his poor dad and his rich dad and why both of their lives went in such different directions - why his poor dad struggled with money despite his degrees and his high position job, and why his rich dad succeeded financially without a formal education.
