Why the Rich Are Getting Richer
by Robert T. Kiyosaki with Tom Wheelwright
Billed as Rich Dad's graduate course: debt as money, taxes as incentives, and the use of both by the wealthy, with tax-adviser Wheelwright supplying the specifics. The co-author makes it more concrete than most of the series.
Read it if…
you want the tax and debt strategy with an accountant's input.
Skip it if…
you dislike leverage; the whole book depends on it.
Three things you will actually use
- Taxes are a map of incentives.
- Debt used to acquire assets is a tool; used to consume, a trap.
- Advisers are part of the asset base.
Do this first
Read the tax chapters and book an hour with your own accountant to ask what applies to you.
Our verdict
