The Rich Dad mission is one of education and empowerment.

Knowledge is, indeed, power and Rich Dad is committed to improving the awareness of and opportunities for improved financial literacy for adults and children around the world.

Unleashing the human spirit

Believes in the potential of the human spirit �?and is dedicated to unleashing it ! It is only through awareness, education, and action that people everywhere can take control of their lives and make the choices that will enable them to become financially free.

Messages of hope and courage

The mission is one of hope and courage �?courage to question and challenge the status quo and to refuse to accept "traditional" thinking and answers as fact.

Rich Dad's messages are for the masses �?for every bit of knowledge that will enhance our financial literacy can impact our lives �?but the life-long Journey to true financial freedom is only chosen by a few. It is offered to everyone, everyone with the courage to believe that it is achievable, but not everyone will make the commitment and take the action that results in true change.

If nothing changes... nothing changes

And change is what it will take. Changes in long-held beliefs of what it takes to be 'successful' in business and in life and changes in how we evaluate the "advice" of those we've been conditioned to 'trust.' Changes in how we think, in how we choose, in how we evaluate opportunities.

Rich Dad's mission is to shape a new context for the "new rules" that apply to money and the role it plays in our lives. This context shift may require changes.

Life-changing rewards

If this seems uncomfortable... well... it may well be. Change is seldom easy. But the rewards are life-changing. And we all know the grains of truth in the old adage: 'If nothing changes, nothing changes.'

Your Rich Dad Journey...

You'll be among friends on your Journey with Rich Dad, kindred spirits who share your passion for knowledge and your goals for the future. The Rich Dad community is a diverse and empowered global network of families and individuals committed to a better life.

At the very least, the heightened financial literacy advocated in the Rich Dad messages can help individuals make better choices in how they earn and spend money; At its best it will elevate individuals to levels of financial independence that they had only imagined.

The Spirit of Rich Dad...

Generosity is key to the Rich Dad philosophy: we get rich by being generous. Believing that we can become free from financial fears and worries awakens us to the roles all of us can play in supporting organizations and programs within our communities whose work betters our world.

Product Picture 



Do you value your child’s education ? Do you want your children to have a financial head start in life ? Are you willing to take an active role to make that happen ? At school, your children learn many valuable concepts, yet they are rarely taught anything about finances.

Imagine if you had been taught about money and, more specifically, about how the rich got that way by generating cash flow from their assets. For a kid, these lessons are vital to future financial well-being. But, better yet, children are excited and inspired by the message.

Rich Dad’s Rich Kid Smart Kid is an introduction to the financial world for children. But more than that, it gives them the right context in which to view money from a very early age. This is the first step to take in ensuring your children have a better financial start than you might have had.

Dear Robert,

All any of my friends can talk about is 'Rich Dad this...' and 'Rich Dad that...' And, to top it off, it seems every one of them is making more money - and working less. What's the trick ? I've got to know.
- Toshido, Tokyo

Dear Toshido,

My rich dad taught me that working for a living is not really living, is it ? So what are you waiting for ? The difference between you and your friends is that they're doing something - and you're not !

Play the CASHFLOW ? 101 game - it was created to teach the basics of finance and investing and let you practice without risking your own money. My rich dad said, "Practice makes perfect." The more you play, the more you learn. As a special offer, if you purchase CASHFLOW 101 by November 30th, 2004, you will also receive Rich Dad's Secrets CD Audio Program - which includes the six major obstacles to wealth and how to overcome them - a $69.95 value, absolutely FREE!

That's how to get ahead. And by the way, it sounds like you have some smart friends there.

- Robert  
Author and Co-Founder of Rich Dad

Robert... Featured on China's Yue-Sai's World

She’s been called the Barbara Walters �?and the Princess Diana �?of China. And she flew in from Shanghai last week to interview Robert in Phoenix. An Emmy Award-winning television personality, Yue-Sai Kan interviewed Robert for her 45-minute program, Yue- Sai's World, a program created to bring it’s extensive Chinese audience interviews with influential people from around the world as well as update viewers about current trends in order to expand their knowledge of Western culture

American Chinese Yue-Sai Kan has also been called both the Estee Lauder and the Emily Post of China. In fact, many would say, she is all four - Walters, Princess Di, Lauder, and Post - in one. Her amazing career as an award-winning TV personality, a four-time, best-selling author, and a successful entrepreneur and humanitarian has spanned the globe from east to west. She has been called the “Most Famous Woman in China�?(People Magazine), “Queen of the Middle Kingdom�?(Time Magazine), “Citizen Ambassador�?(U.S. Congressional Record). She is also an UNICEF Ambassador, and has been voted - many times - as one of the “Most Influential Women in China.�?Her popularity is such that even her face is on a Chinese postage stamp, the first time a living American has been honored in this way.

Robert’s appearance on Yue-Sai’s World will put him in outstanding company: Julio Iglesias, Naomi Campbell, and Meryl Streep are among guests interviewed by Yue-Sai.

Yeu-Sai talked with Robert about global economies, investing, and the international impact of the Rich Dad messages. She is credited with bringing “outside news�?into China in an era when the single television network in that country was government-owned.

Kim joined Robert for much of the interview and an afternoon “tour�?of the Kiyosaki’s real estate holdings in Phoenix, Arizona. The group discussed the “upsides�?for the properties that Kim and Robert own, their investment strategies and the simple rules they use in investing.

The interview, filmed in Robert and Kim’s home in Phoenix, is scheduled to air in early 2005 in China.
