Name The Books You Have Read That Change Your Inspiration About Life by Dablack1(m): 4:41pm On Sep 16, 2017
To me am having two books have read with are RICH DAD POOR DAD

RICHEST MAN IN BABYLON



April 2017 marks 20 years since Robert
Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Poor Dad first made waves
in the Personal Finance arena.
It has since become the #1 Personal Finance
book of all time... translated into dozens of
languages and sold around the world.
Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert's story of growing
up with two dads — his real father and the
father of his best friend, his rich dad — and
the ways in which both men shaped his
thoughts about money and investing. The
book explodes the myth that you need to earn
a high income to be rich and explains the
difference between working for money and
having your money work for you.
20 Years... 20/20 Hindsight
In the 20th Anniversary Edition of this classic,
Robert offers an update on what we’ve seen
over the past 20 years related to money,
investing, and the global economy. Sidebars
throughout the book will take readers “fast
forward” — from 1997 to today — as Robert
assesses how the principles taught by his rich
dad have stood the test of time.
In many ways, the messages of Rich Dad Poor
Dad, messages that were criticized and
challenged two decades ago, are more
meaningful, relevant and important today than
they were 20 years ago.
As always, readers can expect that Robert will
be candid, insightful... and continue to rock
more than a few boats in his retrospective.
Will there be a few surprises? Count on it.
Rich Dad Poor Dad...
• Explodes the myth that you need to earn a
high income to become rich
• Challenges the belief that your house is an
asset
• Shows parents why they can't rely on the
school system to teach their kids about money
• Defines once and for all an asset and a
liability
• Teaches you what to teach your kids about
money for their future financial success



THE RICHEST MAN IN BABYLON

The Richest Man in Babylon is a book by
George Samuel Clason that dispenses
financial advice through a collection of
parables set in ancient Babylon. Through
their experiences in business and managing
household finance, the characters in the
parables learn simple lessons in financial
wisdom. Originally a series of separate
informational pamphlets distributed by
banks and insurance companies , the
pamphlets were bound together and
published in book form in 1926.

Bansir and Kobbi meet with Arkad, asking
him why fate has favored him so much that
Arkad has grown rich while they remain poor,
even though they've worked harder than
Arkad has. Arkad replies that he was once a
hard working scribe who made a deal with a
very rich man, Algamish, for the secret to
wealth in return for a much needed copy of a
law immediately scribed into clay. The rich
man agreed and the next day, when Arkad
delivered the carving, the rich man delivered
in return the secret of wealth. "I found the
road to wealth," he said, "When I decided
that a part of all I earned was mine to keep.
And so will you." (emphasis in the original)
Arkad then relates that he asked the same
question that is undoubtedly on Bansir and
Kobbi's minds, "Isn't all that I make mine to
keep?" Algamish then said no, that a man
had to pay for his clothes, for his food, etc.,
but that if he regularly saved at least a tenth
of his income (and as much more as he
could afford to save) and put that money to
work earning interest, he would become
wealthy.
