If Books Could Kill

INSIGHT

Kiyosaki's Grift

  • Robert Kiyosaki's financial success comes from promoting "get rich quick" schemes through seminars and books, not from actual business acumen.
  • Kiyosaki repackages the same dubious advice he learned at seminars, presenting it as his own wisdom.
  • His companies failed because the advice he gives is not sound, but he became a successful grifter by turning his gullibility into a business model.
  • He advocates for attending potentially scam seminars and seems to earnestly believe in their value, suggesting he is unaware of his own grift.
  • This insight explains Kiyosaki's wealth accumulation, despite the failure of his own businesses.
