Rich Dad Poor Dad By Robert Kiyosaki is a must read for every entrepreneur and investor!

The reason this book is a must read is because this book explains that there is always a different outlook upon life and money; it displays to the reader that the normal societal path to success is not the only way to become financially stable.

Kiyosaki shows readers that he had a rich dad (his friend's father) and a poor dad his biological father). Robert explained that his rich dad did not finish the 8th grade and that his poor dad received his master's degree. What distinguished his rich dad from his poor day is the way the rich dad thought and went about his life financially; his rich dad believed in leveraging and believed there is a way to afford anything you may desire.

This lesson is the greatest of all because as an aspiring entrepreneur you have to think outside of the box and create paths in order to attain your vision.

With society pressuring students to further their education and get internships, entrepreneurs think very differently from this and that's why this book is fantastic!

Rich Dad Poor Dad encourages entrepreneurs to follow their vision and to not allow the average societal path to cause them to not follow their dream.

This book also exhibits the way how business owners think compared to the people who do not own a business. It shows that many individuals who work a typical 9-5 job depend on pensions, 401Ks, and retirement benefits from the company they work for.

These individuals are technically putting their whole future in the hands of a company that they worked for, for many years!

This book teaches that it's okay to be different and do not follow what your teachers, mentors, or parent may want for you; because at the end of the day your future is in your hands and you determine how you would like it to look.

I would like to conclude that investing in a copy of Rich Dad Poor Dad By Robert Kiyosaki is an amazing investment not just for yourself, but also for your future!

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
