Before You Quit Your Job
10 Real-Life Lessons Every Entrepreneur Should Know About Building a Multimillion-Dollar Business
by Robert T. Kiyosaki and Sharon L. Lechter
Narrated by Jim Ward and Deanna Hurst
"Are people born entrepreneurs or are they trained to be entrepreneurs?"
Kiyosaki asked his Rich Dad. "People can be trained to be either
employees or entrepreneurs," Rich Dad replies. He continues to say,
there are more employees than entrepreneurs because schools teach
students to become employees, then gives a list of today's most
popular entrepreneurs -- Edison, Ford, Gates, Dell, Turner - as
entrepreneurs who did not finish school. This isn't to say education
is a waste of time, but that our schools train, with the help of
the parents, our youth to be employees instead of giving them the
option between employee and entrepreneur. Rich Dad also tells his
son employees seek security and entrepreneurs seek freedom. Rich
Dad passes on his knowledge and positive outlook to Kiyosaki, who
eventually earns his "freedom."
In turn, Robert
Kiyosaki shares with us his Rich Dad's/Poor Dad's successes and
failures along with his own experiences in the armed services and
jobs that came later, selected to help gain his "freedom." One experience
that stood out was his Rich Dad's advice to take a job as a salesman,
so he did and hated it. Knowing the learning experience would benefit
him later is what kept him going. (Who hasn't been there!)
Anyone
looking for financial freedom should consider investing in the Rich
Dad/Poor Dad series. The cost of the audio books is nothing compared
to the priceless wisdom one will receive. Parents, it's never too
late. Here is the perfect holiday gift.
