Rich Dad Poor Dad Fake or Not?

Anyone who listens to the podcasts and or researches the recommended reading for Real Estate Investing, Rich Dad/Poor Dad is at the top. Currently I have been listening to it and I have to say, I wish I had listened to it years ago. I have definitely learned alot from this book and attitude about creating passive income to create the life you want.

However when I brought it up to my father(who loves to read these kinds of books)he went into a tirade on how Robert K is a scam artist, that his story isn't real. That he stole the story and on & on. So I did some investigation and there are some haters out there. But you will always find haters.

And my thoughts and point is....who cares? I think his book offers great information on how to look at things differently. To face your fears and follow your goals and this is how to do it.

I couldn't find much info on whether he really was a scam artist or not. And like I said at the end of the day what matters is what I get out of it.

What are your thoughts?
