Robert Kiyosaki Quotes

I am concerned that too many people are focused too much on money and not on their greatest wealth, which is their education. If people are prepared to be flexible, keep an open mind and learn, they will grow richer and richer through the changes. If they think money will solve the problems, I am afraid those people will have a rough ride. Intelligence solves problems and produces money. Money without financial intelligence is money soon gone.

Wealth, in even the most improbable cases, manages to convey the aspect of intelligence.

What I say is, 'If you're so rich, how come you're so dumb?'

There are parents with wealth who just want their kids to be wealthy, and then there are other parents with money who want to teach their kids how they got it. That's what my dad was like.

Paradoxically, when 'dumb' money acknowledges its limitations, it ceases to be dumb.

Poor people either mismanage their money or they avoid the subject of money altogether.

Money is one form of power. But what is more powerful is financial education. Money comes and goes, but if you have the education about how money works, you gain power over it and can begin building wealth. The reason positive thinking alone does not work is because most people went to school and never learned how money works, so they spend their lives working for money.

The single biggest difference between financial success and financial failure is how well you manage your money. It's simple: to master money, you must manage money.

If you've got a dollar and you spend 29 cents on a loaf of bread, you've got 71 cents left; But if you've got seventeen grand and you spend 29 cents on a loaf of bread, you've still got seventeen grand. There's a math lesson for you.
