Rich Dad’s Guide to Investing
by Robert Kiyosaki
What You Will Learn from Reading this Book
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the United States defines
an individual as an Accredited Investor if the individual has:
$200,000 or more in annual income or 1.
$300,000 or more in annual income as a couple, or 2.
$1 million or more in net worth. 3.
The SEC established these requirements to protect the average investor from
some of the worst and most risky investments in the world. The problem is, these
investor requirements also shield the average investor from some of the best
investments in the world, which is one reason why rich dad’s advice to the average
investor was, “Don’t be average.”
Starting with Nothing
This book begins with me returning from Vietnam in 1973. I had less than a
year to go before I was going to be discharged from the Marine Corps. That meant
that in less than a year, I was going to have no job, no money, and no assets. So
this book begins at a point that many of you may recognize and that is a point of
starting with nothing.
Writing this book has been a challenge. I have written and rewritten it four
times. The first draft began at the SEC’s Accredited Investor Level, the level that
begins with a $200,000 minimum annual income. After the book was completed
the first time, it was SharonLechter, my co-author, whoreminded me of rich dad’s
90/10 rule of money. She said, “While this book is about the investments that the
rich invest in, the reality is less than 10% of the population in America earn more
than $200,000 a year. In fact, I believe it is less than 3% that earns enough to
qualify as an Accredited Investor.” So the challenge of this book was to write
about the investments the rich invest in, investments that begin at the minimum
requirement of $200,000 in earnings and still include all readers regardless if they
have money to invest or not
