Ramsey or Kiyosaki?

I think I wrote this post a dozen times and deleted it. I'm not sure how to ask it. In 2013 I lost my step mother(mom) to cancer she left behind many assets and a bit of money for my family and I. Earlier in 2013 I attended FPU Financial Peace University by Dave Ramsey and learned a lot about not being debt. So I purchased a house with cash in 2014. Now I wonder if I made a mistake. Should I have a mortgage and used that money for properties? Who is right Dave or Robert? I've read many books on leveraging money (rich dad) but I can't seem to figure out which one is correct. What is the best way to use that equity if I should leverage?
