Wether he FILED for or was DECLARED bankrupt, fact is that his a.s.s is broke. Period. Never liked that book anyway. So full of unpracticable theoretic balderdash. |

Abeg o the th/ief is not broke ,he is just a smart th/ief trying to cut corners I read his book too .quite interesting bunch of trash. Success does not have a formula ,its just a matter of time and opportunity. In naija success is by the amount of money u put in the business, connection and the ability to cheat others |

awesome_t: All the best to him. Never really believed all those motivational "get rich quick" mumbo jumbo books.Which is why Nigerians(aside Igbos) are possessing the highest rate of spectators and complainers in the field of finance. Always on the lookout for excuses to defend their failures; little minds for you, if robert went bankrup(as he emphasised in 'Rich Dad') he will not remain down, but will persist. And mind you, judging by your way of thinking faculty(mocking attitude), i deduce that you are poor, but never think that your generation will be as rich as he(Robert) is in actuality. Always believing that acquisition of wealth has no rules; poor people's mindset. Everything in life has its rules, from wealth to politics(the two premiers of human earthly esteem thus: power, without which one cannot have a say in the real world[not in academic world where everything is easy]), but is kept secred& conseald for those who it was meant for, that is why we have 70% poor and the ruled all over the world(while the few 'know-hows' thrive and make things happen). Cowardly scu*m. |

basisop:You know nothing about business, despite your plausible claim of having one. Business course in school is a farce, inspite of the numerous graduates Nigerian Universities vomits every year, the rate of poor people keep increasing, why not use that their scholastic knowledge instead of seeking Govt assistance, i still wonders who gave the Igbos financial assistance to be where they are today, after a debilitating war that left them with nothing but their lives. Richard's book expanded my business acumen, and is projecting me forward. |

The battle ground is in the mind. If you have nor won there, you cannot win it anywhere else - period! And if per chance you lost it there, you may never understand or comprehend the message. |

I came across this post, I found it necessary to add my comment to the tread. 1. First thing to note is that Corporate bankruptcy is different from personal bankruptcy. A Corporation or Limited Liability Company (LTD/PLC/LLC) is a legal and distinct entity, different from the owner or operators and promoters. In the case of damages or loss suffered by a Corporation, the assets of the Operators are protected. That is why it is called a Limited liability company i.e. the losses are limited to the assets own by the Company. This is the direct opposite of a Sole Proprietorship whereby if the business suffers a loss, the asset of the Owner can also be seized to pay for the loss. 2. In the case of Roberts K, it was one of his companies – Rich Global LLC was the one that filled corporate bankruptcy ( I think he has about 4 other companies). According to him, this particular company has been out of operation for about 5 years. Now the company was sued and asked to pay an amount greater than the asset owned by the company – so, the sensible thing to do – as a businessman – is to declare bankruptcy, since you wouldn’t want to take money from the other companies or from your personal wealth to pay for the losses of the defunct company. 3. Thirdly, was it morally right to do this, well that would depend on the details of the case. In America, you can be sued for anything. When you are rich, you are a target for every person wanting to get a shot at you. Somebody will eat burgers, get fat, develop a heart disease and the sue the burger company!!! Them force you chop the burgers So as I said, it depend on the details of the case, which unfortunately, we do not have. Having said the above, I will like to offer some words of advice. I have read some comments, some saying “no, my mentor can’t be broke” etc etc. Well, this is what I have to say to that: 1. Don’t be a follower (according to Fela – “follow follow”) be a Student. Listen to what they have to say but don’t do it because someone said you should do it. Learn from their words and experience and synthesize your own unique philosophy based on your environment (Nigeria) and culture. Don’t “Adopt” their principles but “Adapt” it to yourself. 2. Motivational books are good but don’t read only motivational books. Your reading should be balanced (like balanced diet) Read on a wide variety of subjects (Philosophy, Economics, Politics, Law, Leadership, History, Sales, Negotiation, Networking, Novels, Holy Books etc). Don’t expect to get all the wisdom from one particular motivational speaker or from one motivational book. 3. Remember, these people are imperfect too, they are struggling to apply the principles just as you. They also make mistakes. 4. Don’t crucify the messenger because of the message. Judge the value of each message on its own merit not based on the medium or the messenger. A poor man can teach you how to be rich for example, he can say – this is how I messed up, learn from my mistakes, don’t do this or that and you will succeed. 5. Lastly, TAKE ACTION ON YOUR IDEAS, nothing will happen if you continue to sit on your butts and listen to motivational speakers. Ok guys, do have a nice day! Dare Nana djnana2002@yahoo.com |

Smart businessmen use this strategy not to lose money. His business outfit is different entity from himself. Nzeribe declared himself bankrupt some years ago to avoid been held responsible for a loan he guaranteed someone who didn't pay. Part of financial wisdom is not to lose money unnecessarily |
