What the Rich Teach Their Kids about Money - That the Poor and the Middle Class Do Not
C.P.A. Sharon L. Lechter
Robert Kiyosaki
The book tells the story of Robert Kiyosaki's two fathers: his 'poor dad,' a highly educated but fiscally poor man, and his 'rich dad,' the father of his best friend who was a successful entrepreneur. It emphasizes the importance of financial education, distinguishing between assets and liabilities, and building wealth through investing in assets such as real estate and businesses. Kiyosaki argues that a good education and a secure job are not guarantees for financial success and provides practical lessons on how to make money work for you rather than working for money[1][3][5].

What Happened To America And How Sound Money Will Fix It
Larry Lepard
The rich are getting richer… and the middle class? They’re getting wiped out — and most people don’t even see it coming. In this episode of The Rich Dad Radio Show, Robert Kiyosaki and Ken McElroy break down what’s really happening behind the headlines — and how it impacts YOU. Inflation is surging, gold is hitting record highs, and global central banks are dumping U.S. debt to buy real assets. Meanwhile, everyday people are stuck clinging to outdated advice like "save your money" and "invest in a 401(k)" — but that thinking is exactly what’s making the middle class poorer. Robert and Ken also dive into why financial education is more critical now than ever. From real estate to AI to skyrocketing inflation, they share why sitting on the sidelines — or staying stuck in the old system — is no longer an option. Want to protect yourself? Want to thrive while others panic? It starts with knowledge. Join Robert and Ken for a blunt, no-nonsense look at today’s economy — and how to stay ahead of the curve. 00:00 Introduction 02:15 The Importance of Financial Education 03:09 Inflation and Its Impact 08:59 The Future of AI and Employment 12:35 The Human Toll of Inflation 14:56 The Decline of the US Dollar 17:43 Opportunities in Real Estate 19:29 Investment Real Estate Opportunities 19:43 National Debt and Economic Predictions 20:40 The Limitless Event: What to Expect 21:55 Speakers and Topics at Limitless 25:37 The Impact of AI on Jobs and Industries 29:56 The Importance of Continuous Learning 33:53 Final Thoughts and Conclusion ----- 11 countries just ditched the dollar—and China’s building a digital currency system to replace it.

This is not financial advice. You may be asking, “what does that mean?” Let me explain… Do not just do what I, my team, or my guest says. That would be stupid and irresponsible. Take the education, then use your own brain and make your own decisions. YOU must take responsibility for your future and your success. That is why you are here. Neither I, or my team, or my guests, know your risk levels, prior education, emotional maturity, or how much money you can afford to lose. We are only telling you what we believe to be smart moves. But you must decide for yourself. There are NEVER guarantees. Also understand that we are REAL teachers. We practice what we preach. With that in mind we often invest in the very projects that may be mentioned on this show. While it is never our intent, we could possibly profit from others investing in our recommendations. Take the education we provide but then determine your own actions. If it does not make sense to you, get more education before you invest. We will continue to provide education and there will always be more opportunities.
