  1. On live unload in Suffolk virginia. Listening to arguably the two smartest men on morning shows. It just doesn’t get better.

  2. My dad used to ask me, are you proud of me. When I was a young boy child. The question wasn’t, am I proud of you as a boy child. The question is of you as a boy child, are you proud of me as your father. Because I’m right here.

  3. Great subject. I wish I had one of those 4 idols. I sadly have none. I need a life reset to bring all my wisdom and drive back.waiting to die at 55 is no good!!!

  4. Interesting insights about relying on crystallized intelligence to be a teacher rather than innovator. Also, women being the social network managers of the family causes them to be happier. Also, why isn’t everyone putting just like $500 in a brokerage account for their kids until they’re 18 and then helping them roll it over to their own for a sort of emergency fund/continued investing?

  5. I am from a very very poor middle class family but with the knowledge I have get from robert kiyosaki sir and his book helps me a lot for breaking the barriers of poverty

    1. The first step to attaining wealth is figuring out your goaIs and risk toIerance – either on your own or with the heIp of a financiaI coach, and foIIowing through with an inteIIigent pIan, you wiII gain financiaI growth over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.

    2. I am fortunate I made productive decisions that changed my finances (accumuIated over 1M in 2years) through my financiaI coach. Bought my 2nd house in January and hoping to retire at 51 by next year.
      Give this a try and attain weaIth.
