Rich dad, Poor Dad

hey guys,

I just purchased the book rich dad poor dad and started the first 50 pages and decided to do a little investigating about the credibility. My question, why do so many people back the book if there is so much controsoversy behind his methods and how they work? It seems through reviews the first chapter (while fictional) is the only beneficial chapter. I haven't made it very far yet. I just don't want to waste my time on a book that won't help. However, I did love what I've read so far. I just don't want to get any wrong ideas flowing since I'm still new.
