Summary

This script contrasts the lessons learned from two father figures: a well-educated, government-employed 'Poor Dad' and a savvy, entrepreneurial 'Rich Dad.' The speaker shares how traditional education fails to teach about money, and how financial success stems from understanding entrepreneurship, acquiring assets, and having a mindset focused on possibilities rather than limitations. Through real-world experiences and practical lessons like playing Monopoly, the speaker emphasizes the importance of working for free, learning from real teachers, and asking empowering questions like 'How can I afford it?' to unlock financial success.

Q & A

Why doesn't the education system teach about money?

The speaker's father, a PhD and head of education, explained that the government dictates what subjects are taught in schools. Financial education is not part of the curriculum because it is not allowed by the government.

What was the difference between the speaker's 'rich dad' and 'poor dad'?

The 'rich dad' was an entrepreneur who understood the importance of money management and financial education, while the 'poor dad' was an employee with a traditional mindset that focused on getting a job rather than understanding how money works.

Why did the 'rich dad' refuse to pay the speaker when he started learning about money?

The 'rich dad' refused to pay the speaker to teach him about money because he believed that being paid would make the speaker think like an employee. He wanted the speaker to think and act like an entrepreneur, working for free and learning the real value of money.

What lesson did the speaker learn from playing Monopoly with the 'rich dad'?

The speaker learned that understanding money and acquiring wealth is similar to playing the game of Monopoly. One of the most important lessons was acquiring 'four greenhouses and one red hotel' as a strategy for building wealth in real life.

How did the 'rich dad' make his money through real estate?

The 'rich dad' acquired a large piece of property in Waikiki by gradually buying out small shop owners. Over time, he assembled the land and built a hotel, which was eventually sold for $800 million, using a strategy similar to the one learned in Monopoly.

What does the speaker mean by 'spirituality' in relation to financial struggles?

The speaker refers to 'spirituality' as the ability to grow from both positive and negative experiences. He believes that financial challenges, such as making mistakes and facing setbacks, are part of the learning process that helps one grow and improve in life.

What is the role of mindset in wealth-building according to the speaker?

The speaker emphasizes that mindset plays a crucial role in wealth-building. People with a poverty mindset often say 'I can't afford it' or 'I don't have time,' which limits their potential. Instead, a wealthy mindset asks questions like 'How can I afford it?' or 'What would it take?' which opens up possibilities.

How does the speaker differentiate between 'real teachers' and 'fake teachers'?

The speaker defines 'real teachers' as those who actively practice what they teach every day. For example, his accountants, attorneys, and bankers are real teachers because they are engaged in their work daily. In contrast, 'fake teachers' teach subjects they don't personally apply in real life.

Why does the speaker argue that the school system is designed to create employees rather than entrepreneurs?

The speaker believes that the school system is designed to teach students to become employees, doctors, lawyers, or specialists, rather than to understand money and entrepreneurship. Schools focus on preparing students for traditional jobs, which is why financial education is often neglected.

What is the speaker's advice for young people who want to build wealth?

The speaker advises young people to find their own game, whether it's business, real estate, or another field. He encourages them to focus on building financial knowledge and to take a proactive approach to learning how money works, instead of simply following traditional paths like getting a job.
