>Rich Dad Poor Dad is the only financial book that matters.
Fairly true. The book teaches you basic fundamentals as to how modern finance works and if anyone listened to him when he wrote it, they'd be rich by now.
While still generally a useful book to those starting their adult lives now, there's less and less assets available in the world at appropriate buy in price points. Worse still, basic necessities that'll act as liabilities are increasing in cost. So while the boomers may be cooked for retirement, younger generations have to choose between potentially overvalued assets or huge liabilities that get in the way of getting those assets but are necessary for adult life (housing and auto) and are going to have to deal with the fallout of boomer retirements at the same time. Gold, silver and BTC may be all you need, but you could only really enjoy asset accumulation during the good times. Our society is so far gone that we're forced to rely on the good will of Wall St. to keep asset prices up because that's where smart people have parked their wealth while the money has been used as a weapon for geopolitics. I don't think anyone is happy with this arrangement.
And yeah, Kiyosaki is a bit of a smug nigger sometimes, but I think it comes from a place of pain. Imagine loving someone and they never listened to you and suffer from their own bad decisions that you already tried to help them out of. Your options are to cry or just double down on your ego. Crying is only ok when no one's looking in this world. Let go? Too many good memories and we're not built to forget.
desu, I hope he lives long enough to see everything go to shit and people who actually want to fix things start to do so and are visible to the world. I'm half this guy's age, just about done with everything and don't want to imagine how jaded and cynical he is.
