And after much reflection reflected in the book, Kiyosaki chooses the path of the Rich Pope. A story about how to gain financial independence, how not just to become a rich man, but also change the very attitude to life.

The whole book of Robert Kiyosaki is built in the form of small stories from life. There are no clearly derived theories and planned lessons of teaching. The book is simple and accessible tells us about any incidents in the life of Robert, but the author suggests that the conclusions be made by the reader himself. This is precisely the method of Kiyosaki.
The very first lesson from his Rich Pope Robert was at the age of nine. Dreaming of becoming rich, he turned to the rich father for help. But instead of traditional lessons on the school principle “sit down and write down,” Rich Dad sent the boy to work as an assistant to the store. The work of the boy lasted three hours, on Saturdays, instead of lessons in playing baseball, and Rich Dad paid him just 10 cents for every hour. Even by the standards of the fifties it was very little. And what did Robert do? Exactly what thousands of such workers did, went to the boss with a demand to raise their salaries. This was the first lesson. “When you get a push in life, you do two things in response: either quietly suffer, or push someone else’s response – your boss. But it’s not your boss who pushes you, life pushes you, and you have to push in response, pushing with all your might, elbows and knees. If you learn this lesson, and you act, and do not raise your paws up, you will grow up to be a rich and happy person. If you do not, then you will endure the jolts of life, suffering from low wages, boss’s whims, blaming everyone around for their misfortunes. “
