''robert Kiyosaki'' And The Road To 'forbes',how Possible? by oddiy(m): 3:31pm On Dec 03, 2009 |
So much has been said about Robert Kiyosaki's inability to enter Forbes[the World's Rich List].This keeps people wondering if this man is 'real' because despite his claim of knowing much about wealth creation and all that,he is yet to enter Forbes. These things I am still wondering.I am a big fan of this great guy,I have learnt a great lot from his numerous and wonderful teachings. What do you think? |

I have read his books and have really learned a lot from them. Personally, whether he enter in that circle or not is unimportant to me, I just need more of his knowledge(more books from here). |

There is a great difference between ideology and reality. Note this.Ideologists don't care how it works - they just deliver the burning ideas and feel it must work.They don't care if they are making millions or billions.Their pleasure lies in motivating others - they love to influence the way people think,they change the world. This is where they feel their calling or talents lie.There are political,social,financial,economic,or spiritual ideologists. Robert Kiyosaki happens to be ones of them. Take a look at some of the world's most influential professional speakers like Zig Ziglar,Jim Rohn,Anthony Robbins,Brian Tracy, Stephen Covey and so on.Are these guys ''really'' affluent? Stephen Covey,author of The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People has sold more than 15million copies of that book and the book is in about 38 language! But come to think of it,is he in Forbes[the World Rich List].He is not,and he doesn't care that much[this does not mean he did not like money].All he wants is to motivate and inspire lives, and he is rightly doing that.Infact,Stephen Covey is a managerial advisor to some of the Fortune 500 Companies in America.These companies are raking in billions of dollars in profit annually,and most their CEOs are in Forbes. Sam Adeyemi,one of Nigeria's foremost professional speakers, talks about successful living,personal and organisational finance strategies.He hosts the radio programme,''Success Power'',which is broadcast in Nigeria and other nations.He teaches wealth creation tactics.The question now is,Is he among the top 1000 richest people in Nigeria?I don't think he is.But I am sure Sam loves what he is doing - speaking. Remember we said he teaches wealth creation,we did't say he practices wealth creation tactics. So for Robert Kiyosaki,he should be allowed to be.After all,his teachings[not practice,please]has touched and is still touching millions of lives positively around the world,his teachings has made new billionaires and inspired others to be. Let us take an excerpt from one of his books on his autobiog- raphy: , Returning from war,Robert went to work for Xerox Corporation and in 1977 started a company that brought the first Nylon Velcro surfer nylon to market,In 1985 he founded an international company that taught[not practiced] business and investing to tens of thousands of students throughout the world, Whether he taught or practiced what he teahes,I believed this great icon has made his mark positively. And I am sure you agree with me. Thanks 1 Like |

@hazh Good job there. @post Robert Kiyosaki is not teaching us to be wealthy so as to be in Forbes rating. He is there to motivate you to leave the elemental poverty level, to a comfortable level where you can afford the necesities of life with ease. I value his books and encourage people to read them for financial re-orientation and growth. |

I am not sure if I am correct Forbes basically have list of world Billionaires. Some of these guys are Millionaires or decamillionaires. Which is a lot of money, from Forbes record Dangote is worth about 3.3Billion dollars actually he is worth much more than that. Is Adenuga on forbes list, is he wealthy? So it is not all wealthy people that are on Forbes list. Bishop Oyedepo has 3 jets and his third is the latest Boeing own by very few people in the world. Forbes measures people's wealth by the value of their stock in their countries stock exchange, so if your company is not listed on the stock exchange there is no way forbes is going to know your worth. Robert kiyosak is mega rich, Pastor sam is mega rich. 1 Like |

Please hear it from the horse's mouth: "We go to school to learn to work hard for money. I write books and create products that teach people how to have money work hard for them". Robert Kiyosaki |

I LOVE YOUR TREND. BUT JUST TO CLARIFY YOU THAT FORBES RATING IS BASED ON FACT AND THE FACT WILL BE GOTTEN FROM EXCHANGE COMMISSIONS. FOR EXAMPLE YOU MAY HAVE A COMPANY QUOTED ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE, THAT IS WHERE FORBES GETS THE WORTH OF YOUR COMPANY FROM, BUT I MAY HAVE A COMPANY WORTH MORE THAT YOUR OWN COMPANY, BUT BECAUSE ITS NOT QUOTED I MAY NOT BE RATED. |

Robert Kiyosaki has been an object of criticism but it's ok. I have been following kiyosaki's teachings and this is what i have to say. How can a man help others become rich when he is not rich himself. I am financially independent today is because of his teachings. Robert himself said he prefers to keep his companies private because it gives him maximum flexibility. So don't expect him on the Forbes list, same goes for Mike Adenuga. |

Robert Kiyosaki has influence so many people to change their thoughts from negativity to positivity with regard to wealth. I think this is what is important to us. Forbes is just an organization. So, it shouldn't create any concern weather his name is there or not. Remember that you have to be the best that you can be. I think Robert Kiyosaki is not worried that his name is not on Forbes. |

And in one of his books he said: 'Mind Your Business' I think you guys are missing something here. Robert Kiyosaki is a realestate investor, not just an author who write books. |
Re: ''robert Kiyosaki'' And The Road To 'forbes',how Possible? by wizecoder: 3:56pm On Sep 05, 2012 |
It is straight forward ...forbes only rate investment that you disclose , the stock exchange is easier for them.... I Do not believe in dt s****t they don't take your debt into consideration if they do .... i am sure of an African that should not be on that list. |
Re: ''robert Kiyosaki'' And The Road To 'forbes',how Possible? by imsupertips: 4:28pm On Sep 05, 2012 |
First of all, Robert has never claimed to be a billionaire so dont expect him on that list. Infact, in his book with Donald Trump, Why We Want You To Be Rich, he talked about the tension he had when he was meeting The Donald. He said he feels he didnt deserve to write a book with him as he is just a millionaire and Donald is a billionaire. Robert has never shown you how to be a billionaire. He teaches how to be financially free. He walks his talk. |

Robert kiyosaki is a great financial teacher nd he is also rich from what i know. So as to whether he is in forbes magazine or not is not a measure of his practicality of what he teaches. He is a great mentor nd inspiration. His teachings are wonders to ones financial freedow. Luv him. Forbes or not, he is great! |
