Retire Young Retire Rich
by Robert T. Kiyosaki
How Kiyosaki and his wife went from broke to retired in nine years, through leverage of mind, plan, action and 'the first step'. It is the most autobiographical of the series and the leverage framing is useful; the real-estate specifics belong to a different era.
Read it if…
you want the story of how the method supposedly worked for its author.
Skip it if…
you want current, specific strategy.
Three things you will actually use
- Leverage of mind comes before leverage of money.
- A plan with a deadline changes behaviour.
- Retiring early means building income, not saving harder.
Do this first
Write the plan the book asks for: income needed, assets required, deadline.
Our verdict
The autobiographical one.
