Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert's account of growing up with two fathers — his genuine dad and the dad of his closest companion, his rich father — and the manners by which the two men molded his contemplations about cash and contributing. The book detonates the fantasy that you have to win a high salary to be rich and clarifies the contrast between working for cash and having your cash work for you. It has since become the #1 Personal Finance book ever... converted into many dialects and sold far and wide.
