About this listen

Robert Kiyosaki - author of the #1 personal finance book of all time - has built a legacy around simplifying complex and often-confusing subjects like money and investing. He continues to challenge conventional wisdom and asks the questions that will help listeners sift through today's information overload to uncover ways to assess what's real... and what isn't. And use truth and facts as a foundation for taking control of their financial lives.

In this new book, Robert fights what’s "fake" and helps listeners differentiate between what’s real...and what isn’t.

Robert pulls no punches in his assessment of what is passed off as "fact" or conventional wisdom and believes that a strong foundation - for anything we want to build - needs to start with solid, true information. In today’s uncertain times, creating a secure financial future and the peace of mind that comes with it starts with taking action and taking control.

In FAKE: Fake Money, Fake Teachers, Fake Assets, Robert delivers insights and answers that help ordinary people - who probably haven’t had a lot of financial education - determine what’s "real" and relevant to their financial lives.

Every day we are bombarded with news reports and information and opinions... How do we decipher fact from fiction? How do we differentiate between truth and lies? And determine what’s real... from what isn’t? Kiyosaki believes that it starts with education, financial education designed to make us smarter with our money - and able to fight what’s fake and use what isn’t to secure our financial future.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Good read

Robert very cleverly names names and brings to light what the popular media are not reporting on. Thank you Robert and Rich dad team, I certainly appreciate this book!

overall good

I felt overall this was a good book however Robert seems to repeat the same stories far too often, I've heard about Nixon and the Gold standard about 200 times.

Mind Blown

I loved this book. It was incredibly informative and thought provoking. The stories put everything into perspective and helped me to realise I have habits that need to be broken. Finish the whole thing, by the end it all falls into place.

A lot of repeating within the book

I enjoyed the book but you could just listen to the rich dad radio show to learn what Robert has put in this book. A lot of repeating and fluff.

Worth a read if you can look past the issues..

There are some really golden nuggets found in this book around educations, corruption, real assets, preparing for the future, currencies, global markets, concerns about cash, entrepreneurialism and hedging against the uncertainty ahead. Definitely appreciated a couple of these take aways. This Book however is DEFINITELY not without it's flaws.

Issues:
- Repetitive: So many of the common phrases including 'silver and gold Is God's money' are used far too many times. The start of the book is extremely tough to get through with how repetitive it is..
- Very long: This Book could have been half or a quarter of the size with all the valuable content still included.
- References: So many books, people, etc are mentioned in this book which add so much value. Why aren't these in the Audible PDF?

Another great book by Robert Kiyosaki

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will listen to it again as there was so much information in there that will require a second listen through to catch it all. Robert touches on how to spot fake teachers and experts, fake assets and also how to invest in real assets and teachers. While the book isn’t a step by step guide, it gives enough information for you to take away and pursue any further education in the topics you are curious about.
A lot of what Robert has stated I agree with, and I would say some points I knew about already but a lot of them I had not known about and/or had believed the opposite. I would warn to approach this book with an open mind as it may challenge your existing beliefs about investing, money and financial experts.
