This is a book that goes counter to most of the financial books that I have read recently. The two authors state that they do not believe in current trend of "Live below your means, pay off your debts and save in mutual funds", a-la Dave Ramsey's Total Money Makeover.
They talk about financial education, which Dave Ramsey also makes a big deal about. But these two authors have now trouble leveraging other peoples money(borrowing money) to make their additional money.
I enjoyed the book, and the messages that Trump and Kiyosaki are trying to get acrossed. The main message that I think is applicable is that we are all responsible for our own financial education and if we educate ourselves then we can leverage that education, as well as other outside forces to increase our income.
I think that there are ideas in the book that can be used in conjuction with Dave Ramsey's teachings, but the results will be slower than the results that Trump and Kiyosaki talk about.
