I read this book after hearing it mentioned on a podcast and loved it. I am so impressed with Kim Kiyosaki I had to buy it for my 2 daughters and my nieces and my friends daughters. I will be back to buy more to gift to people to show them not to do what others have done for far too long and rely on yourself, not others for your financial independence. Sean H

Motivating

I found this book very motivating and I think Kim did a great job in making finances easy to understand. People who thought the book was fluff probably don't get what she was saying and probably aren't investing either. Pity. The book wasn't supposed to give a step by step in how or what to invest in. It was supposed to motivate, educate and inspire women to start investing in businesses, real estate, etc. She was not at all condescending to women or to men. Anyone who thinks she was in the book probably has a huge chip on the shoulder to begin with. Another pity. Take the book for what it is. I'm grateful that she wrote the book and shared her insight. She didn't have too. She could have just kept all the knowledge to herself.

A Great Book That's L-o-n-g Overdue

Kim Kiyosaki shows she's the real deal with this book. I read it with my wife and absolutely loved Kim's perspective and how she kept the theme around her long time girlfriends; the ups and downs, etc and interjected sound fiscal rationale into the life of each one. Of course, we also learned that some folks just won't listen and just won't learn - even if they agree with a great idea; they just can't make the commitment to change. I really enjoyed her comment early on (after explaining the changing reallization of womanhood from our 20's to our 50's) that "Its a waste of time to think that men will change. Its time for us women to change". If you get nothing else out of the book, at least try to understand the six reasons why women 'must' be involved in investing (such as avoiding dependency and increasing self-esteem). Kim defines the keys (and the best way to make immediate changes) as arming yourself with some fundamental finance education, starting out small, always put some cash down, and stay close to home (at least at the beginning). Of great importance is her succinct rule that "Its your choice!" If you seek financial "dependence" then you are accepting that someone else will be responsible for your financial well-being. However, if you seek financial "independence" then you are opting for "long-term freedom over short-term comfort." This book is about understanding the need to make the change, making a commitment to change, seeking financial independence, and making decisions between cash-flow or capital gains in your investments. Control your finances to build your self-confidence. When it comes to financial planning, there's nothing more important to believe in -than yourself!

Life-changing

I'm like many of the statistical women described in the book who found themselves living well while married and then found themselves divorced and broke with little to show for years of sacrifice and hard work. It was then I discovered how dependent I had become on someone else to provide for my financial future. I call it "marital welfare" -- and I do agree that we are a culture of dependent creatures -- and this fact usually smacks a woman right in the face through circumstances she least expects. Part of rising above all of this has been a dawning awareness of how important it is to take the financial responsibility for my future into my own hands. Kim Kiyosaki has put into words what has already been placed in my heart -- it was the "you're on the right track" message that I needed to hear to further my resolve -- not just in finances but in every area where self-sufficiency needs to evolve. The good news is that I am remarried to someone who supports my financial plans, goals and dreams and shares in the excitement. This book does not give a step-by-step how-to, but what it does do is bring about a birthing process that can literally change your life because it provokes you to change how you VIEW your life. For many people, that's all it takes, and in that regard, this book has accomplished wonders.

The real deal

Rich Woman is great for women who are just beginning to take control of their financial future and step out into the world of investing. It is set in easy to read "ladies lunch" type conversations, and addresses some issues that are unique to us as women. I have had the opportunity to work with Kim Kiyosaki, and she is the real deal. This book is not about selling anything- it was born out of years of seeing the urgent need for women to take control of their finances.

RICH WOMEN- A GOOD BOOK FOR MEN!

"RICH WOMEN is a great book for men!" Men, buy this book for the women in your life. Women have the potential to be excellent business people and with training and practice can beat men at their own game. Most have a subtle advantage over men and don't have to deal with the big ego problems of having to, "know it all." They just want to be winners and successful. Many just don't know where to start or how to get help. RICH WOMEN is a great start and savvy guide to financial freedom written for women.
