Default Rich Dad

What do people think of the Rich Dad books?
I passed the first one down to my college age son - it is a real eye opener about attitudes. I don't care for all the subsequent hype, but he has some solid advice. What does anyone else think?

Default Loved Them!

I love the "Rich Dad" books! Having grown up in a working class home and watching my parents never really get ahead in life, those books were a HUGE eye-opener for me. Since I read them, I've started changing my ways (and my husband's) and he and I are now looking forward to a retirement that will be worlds better than what our parents have today. We're also planning for a very good financial start for our son.

If I hadn't read those books, we'd still be living paycheck to paycheck and wondering what we'd live off when the Social Security gives out!

I also like the Rich Dad book its truly an eye opener, giving us the self realization that we should not depend on our parents or any one else for our future we must wok hard for it. I want to enjoy my retirement days with my wife and kids, so I'm planning well for it.
