Rich Dad Community
I wish that I had a rich dad to teach me about money when I was growing up. At the age of 16 I got my first credit card and basically used it like it was free-for-all card that magically purchased items that you would never have to worry about paying back. Go figure.
Well a few years later – around the age of 19 – I picked up a copy of Rich Dad, Poor Dad and for the first time learned the basic principles of assets and liabilities. It was the book that broke my entrepreneurship cherry. And it was a messy awakening for me.
Seeing how Robert Kiyosaki learned from his Rich Dad really inspired me as well as many entrepreneurs around the world. The Rich Dad series are excellent for budding entrepreneurs looking for books that cover a wide range of business subjects without getting into too much detail or analysis.
The books are a fun read, but can easily bore the seasoned entrepreneur who has risen above the basics. If you’re looking for a quick injection of motivation and encouragement, then go pick up one of Kiyosaki’s books.
A few months ago, I came across the Rich Dad discussion boards. It’s a great forum to reach out to fellow entrepreneurs who are also in the process of running and building a business. Just beware of the masses of MLM cult-like members who hang around the boards… don’t be surprised if someone asks you to help sell $1,000 knife sets or the latest hair conditioner that is supposedly going to revolutionize the industry.
If you’re looking for some solid feedback on your business, advice, and insights into the world of entrepreneurship, then this board is well worth the trip. It’s one of the best out there. Overall (but not all), it’s a solid community of people who are genuinely keen in helping others and learning at the same time – great reciprocity over there.
