YOU~HOOSE
TO BE RICH
Robert T. Kiyosaki
Dear Friend,
Congratulations! You have taken the first step on the path to financial
freedom. This Choose To Be Rich program has been designed to change the
way you think about money, to provide you with the tools you'll need on
your path to wealth, and to set you firmly on that path with a plan of action.
This is a journey that began for me at the age of nine. As a young boy,
everything I learned about money came from two men. My own dad, whom
I refer to as my Poor Dad, was highly educated, with a high paying job as
Superintendent of Education for the State of Hawaii. As his e continued'
to grow, however, so did his debt; and he worked harder and harder,
struggling paycheck to paycheck.
In contrast, my best friend's dad, who I call my Rich Dad, never finished high
school. Yet he became one of the wealthiest men in the state of Hawaii. And
his path not only led to great wealth, but also allowed him to spend more
time with his family.
I admired both men very much, but when it came to money I decided to
follow my Rich D:1c1's p:1th Hr- t:111ght rne :1 ne-w W:1y of thinking :1hOllr
money and wealth-lessons I would now like to share with you.
My Rich Dad's greatest lesson of all was that the rich are not smarter than the
rest of uOl-they jUB( know things about money that the middle clasa and poor
do not! He also taught me that there was nothing difficult about ing
rich; all I had to do was change the way I thought about money--different

finally, he taught me it was just a choice. A choice I continue to make
every day.
Based on the lessons of my Rich Dad, I was able to make my first million by
the age of 30; and at the age of 47, I was able to retire plete
financial freedom! But as my own dad's-my Poor Dad's-son, I am a teacher
