i went to one of those financial seminars once. he stressed, more than once, that you should never, ever, not in a million years, buy something that you have to buy something on a now or never basis. at the end of the seminar, you were give the opportunity to buy a book for $100, but only if you bought it NOW. you could buy it later but then the price was much, much higher. lol. i guess anyone buying that book now wasn't really paying enough attention to the seminar. reminds me of someone i met who sent $20 to one of the first "how i made $x by stuffing envelopes" thing. she got an envelope stuffed with a single piece of paper listing 20ish rules such as, make sure and get a post office box so pissed off people can't come punch you out at your house
@@ellastiletto250 Not open question my guy. Either he pays what he owes or bank will takeover the assets and sell at an auction to cover the amount owed.
I remember hearing him talking with Tony Robbins on the radio back when I delivered pizza. I bought the book and read it (many years ago). I looked up the book and there was a real real estate agent who wrote a response website to the book. It was basically debunking a lot of his advice. Mostly as the things people think are what successful real estate agents are like. It's been some years, but I recall Kiyosaki talking about owning properties all over the US. The real, real estate agent said how generally you learn your area well. That's how you know what's a good deal or not, an up and coming area or not. I've had the disagreement with people about him being a phony with the response, "It doesn't matter, because the advice is good." *sigh*. He did make a board game though. I'll admit it was fun to play, at least.
If they were really casting metal/lead, the toothpaste would catch fire, and impurities would float to the top and could be skimmed off. Even if the tube wasn't 100% lead (mixed with say tin), the "recycled" metal could be sold, but you would need a bunch, and a place to recycle it. Had he wanted to make a good story, and had half a brain, they could have cast them into something like metal army men, or cars etc.
32:50 One sitcom character is called _Will Smith._ the real name of a major Hollywood actor *at the time.* 38:34 Oh shit, he's the real Forest Gump. 1:11:25 Rich Dad was actually Rich/Dad

"in the 50s, toothpaste tubes were made of lead"... well, that explains a lot
This guy just went broke! so much for following Rich neighbor dad!
But is he poor?
@@arielluquer8274 He's unable and unwilling to pay interest on the loans he took so I don't know man! make your own conclusion.
@@Utopia42 What's gonna happen to his assets? That's what make you rich if they're in surplus of any debt owed. However, this is an open question.

Rich dad never existed so his "advice" was invented by Robert.

Oh my goodness, I appreciated this podcast very much. Such a great idea to dress down these books.
I can accept that whoever said "a fool and his money are one big party" was probably joking, or making a play on words based on the saying.
Hey everybody, let's take financial advice from a guy who claimed to get lead poisoning as a kid!
He bought 400,000 copies of his own book😂😂😂 to make the best seller list😮
Don't incur liabilities...except tax law infractions, those don't count.
its the fact that they just refuse to pay people...
