    On this side of the world they still think Kiyosaki is for real. It takes them a while to realise that if you have to buy motivational books and go to 'lets get hyped up' seminars you've just secured yourself a spot with the 98% who will fail after being fleeced of several $000. You'll be able to console yourself later in life by saying, 'Well at least I gave it go'.

    And the 2% who do succeed eventually come to realise they would have succeeded anyway because they have the prerequisite skill sets and drive to be successful anyway.

    Ah well it makes the world go around I suppose.

    Kiyosaki' basically just lends his name to he Rich Dad poor dad.. Just like Trump has his Trump acadamy. And Greg Norman has Norman wines Golf Clubs and clothes..My business partner in Napa CA bottled and labeled Arnold Palmer wines  Arnold all Arnold did was lend a name and make 5 bucks a case for it.  These orginizations are run by very slick and highly cashed up marketing companies.  Its just a business of selling information and mentoring.. I have been to many of these… As a spectator because I was financing the deals for the Vendors presenting. I have talked with many of the folks that paid the money to go on the bus tours etc… And for the most part the information that is given has some value, is it worth 40k for one weekend and two bus trips not sure about that.. But when I listen to some of the people I can see where they might have gotten value. Because they were so green that if they had tried to do a fix and flip with no knowledge they could have easily made 20 to 50k worth of mistakes.. IE bought crap property.. spent far to much on REno etc etc. and maybe they learned enough at the seminar not to make those boo boo's..

    He asks, "sell me this pen". Not one of them has a clue and the camera pans across the room and you can see it's another bunch of suckers being mugged while thinking they're on the road to success.

    Reminds me a lot of property seminars.
