Book Summary:

"Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert T. Kiyosaki is a personal finance classic that challenges conventional beliefs about money, investing, and wealth-building. The book is structured around the contrasting financial philosophies of Kiyosaki's two "dads"—his biological father, whom he calls "Poor Dad," and the father of his best friend, "Rich Dad." While Poor Dad believed in traditional education, job security, and saving, Rich Dad emphasized financial education, investing, and creating passive income streams. Kiyosaki uses their contrasting views to highlight the importance of financial literacy, understanding assets and liabilities, and thinking like an entrepreneur to achieve financial independence.
