Robert T. Kiyosaki

Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert's story of growing up with two dads — his real father and the father of his best friend, his "rich dad" — and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing. The book explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to be rich and explains the difference between working for money and having your money work for you.

Describes how the wealthiest percentage of the population handles investments, and suggests ways to follow the example, including building one's own business in order to invest as a business, not an individual.
