Editorial Reviews

Expressing the same philosophy he espouses in his RICH DAD POOR DAD series, Kiyosaki presents his plan for would-be entrepreneurs in a clear and organized manner. Jim Ward presents the information in a conversational and easy-to-follow manner. Although the text is a bit repetitious, Ward pulls it off with aplomb. Deanna Hurst adds a touch of style to the reading and breaks up the narrative. This audiobook would benefit from a workbook or guide to consult with while listening. The author’s use of quadrants, pyramids, and other graphics are difficult to follow at times. Although icons of these tools are printed on the CDs, they’re not sufficient to clarify his concepts.
