Why 'A' Students Work for 'C' Students and 'B' Students Work for the Government

Rich Dad's Guide to Financial Education for Parents

By: Robert T. Kiyosaki

Narrated by: Tim Wheeler

Kiyosaki expands on his belief that the school system was created to churn out Es / Employees...those "A Students" who read well, memorize well and test well... and not the creative thinkers, visionaries, and dreamers - entrepreneurs-in-the-making...those "C Students" who grow up to be the innovators and creators of new ideas, businesses, applications, and products.

The audiobook urges parents not to be obsessed with their kids' "letter grades" ("good grades" might only mean they or the student themselves were successful in jamming a square peg into a round hole...) and focus, instead, on concepts, ideas, and helping their child find their true genius, their special gift. The path they can pursue with a love and true passion.

Robert showcases success stories of "C Students" who grew up to be phenomenal successes - and HIRED those "A Students" (attorneys, accountants, and other school-smart specialists) to work in their businesses... while the more average students, "B Students", often find themselves in government-type jobs....

Not surprisingly, Kiyosaki will coin his own definitions of what "A," "B," and "C" stand for as he gives parents and their children bits of wisdom as well as insights and tools for navigating an ever-changing world...an Information Age world where the ability to change and adapt, understand relationships, and anticipate the future will shape their lives.

Offensively eye opening

As a “B student,” an attorney and a government employee, I am naturally offended by this book BUT, because I am able to see all three sides of the coin and take into consideration the writer’s context, the points made in the book were well taken.

The book could have been less repetitive (same examples used multiple times) and less political (bashed specific presidents).

Other than that, good read!

Eye opener for parents

This book is an eye opener for parents. Helps us to teach children the correct way and not the way the gov

Greatest advisor

Robert has been the start and greatest motivational speaker to me through his materials. The 101 cash flow game, audio and hardcopy books.

Exciting and insightful

This book like some of the others gives you a history lesson that helps you understand what is happening in today's society economically and financially

his best yet!

I've listened to nearly all the books on the rich dad series and this is perhaps the best. both cautionary and inspiring at the same time, Robert tells the truth about how the economic system works, why it crashed, why it is doomed and what we can do for ourselves and our children in light of the system's fundamental flaws.

Poor sound quality

It took 9 hours into the book to figure out turning the bass all the way down eliminated the boomy sounds. Performance Audio should remasters the book

must read this book

excellent book. this is one to revisit again and again. then use it to change how we teach our children

financial education

Robert can't stress it enough, about financial education to the world to these A student graduates asking for forgiveness from the government.

Must read for patents and Undergrads

This book summarizes everything you need to know for coming up with a success plan in today's unstable economy,

He covers in nuggets the history of our govt, federal reserve , fiat currency and the different quadrants.

He lays it out in a simple form what you need to do.

A must read !

Interesting Book

The information in this book is very valuable and should be heard by pretty much everyone.
