I first read Robert Kiyosaki’s book Rich Dad, Poor Dad while visiting my Alaskan friend’s very humble homestead on an island outside of Sitka.
At the time, my husband and I had one son, Blake, we were beyond broke (in debt), and I thought:
People who were rich were greedy and money-hungry.
Laying in bed in the loft above my friend’s burning woodstove, I devoured Kiyosaki’s words. And that weekend marks a HUGE shift in both my mindset…and our family’s bank balance.
Here are some of my favorite lessons from Rich Dad, Poor Dad.
Poor Dad Said: “I can’t afford it.”
Rich Dad Said: “How can I afford it?”Poor Dad Said: “I’m not interested in money.”
Rich Dad Said: “Money is power.”
If you haven’t read the book, you really should. Any library will have a well worn copy of this classic book about financial literacy…and will push you to explore your own relationship with money.

Hi Jen,
Loveing your trainings very siplictic and easy to follow. I have to say that Rich Dad Poor Dad is one of my favorites. Look forward to your teachings. I have to say I also my wife and I do Herbalife and we hit the ” Leadership ” Level we together over 6k in one month after 12 months of spending like you say 20k in advertising marketing. I have seen a huge drop off in royalties and looking for the 7 figure system to help us rebound. Will keep in touch Mike and Michelle
