Robert Kiyosaki

Robert Kiyosaki is an American entrepreneur, investor, and author who is best known for his bestselling book “Rich Dad Poor Dad.” Born on April 8, 1947, in Hilo, Hawaii, Kiyosaki has had a diverse career spanning various industries and business ventures.

Kiyosaki’s early life was influenced by two key figures who played significant roles in shaping his financial mindset: his biological father and his best friend’s father, who became a mentor to Kiyosaki and guided him on financial matters and entrepreneurship. In 1997, Kiyosaki achieved worldwide recognition with the release of his book “Rich Dad Poor Dad.” However, he did not stop at that time and sowed the seeds of the book “Rich Kid, Smart Kid.”

Beyond his writing, Kiyosaki has also been involved in various business ventures. He has invested in real estate, which means buying and selling properties. He even launched the Rich Dad Company, which offers financial education materials and seminars, and has been involved in other entrepreneurial endeavors.

It’s worth noting that Kiyosaki’s financial advice and teachings have garnered both praise and criticism. While some people appreciate his emphasis on financial education and his motivational approach to wealth creation, others have raised concerns about the simplicity of his advice or questioned the accuracy of his personal success stories.
