俺记得有这么个搞投资的,投资很失败,几乎破产,后来他去写投资书,结果发了
看看这个Kiyosaki是怎么回事,就知道为什么这些成功励志类图是老鼠会的宝典了。您老恐怕没有参加过老鼠会的活动吧?去看看吧,就知道我说的是什么意思,哈哈哈。
请特别留意文中提到的network marketing和pyramid schemes:
Some have questioned Kiyosaki's status as a successful investor and businessman prior to the formation of his present venture, CASHFLOW Technologies, Inc. They claim that his wealth has come only as a result of selling books and audio presentations about topics he has not personally succeeded in and that he is probably worth far less than the $50 to $100 million USD he once claimed in an interview. They note he has claimed to be bankrupt as recently as 1985, a high school dropout and a deserter from the military. Some of these items do not agree with records and may have been stated for "dramatic effect". In several of his books he makes claims about his accomplishments which appear to be exaggerations, fabrications or misdirection.
It may be difficult to discern fact from fiction and anecdote in many of his works. Some readers believe that Rich Dad is fictional and that Kiyosaki created him as an author surrogate (a literary device). In the past, Kiyosaki has maintained that Rich Dad actually existed, but that he died decades before the book was first published. However, he has never revealed his name or any other identifying information. Attempts by outsiders to determine Rich Dad's identity have not revealed a conclusive (or even likely) candidate, despite the prominence such a wealthy individual would likely have had in Hawaii in the 1950s. In the February 2003 issue of SmartMoney magazine, Kiyosaki appeared to back off his claim that his "rich dad" was a real person, instead stating “Is Harry Potter real? Why don’t you let Rich Dad be a myth, like Harry Potter?”. Some supporters of Kiyosaki claim to have researched the issue and come up with the notion that “Rich Dad” is really a (now deceased) man named "Richard Kimi". [11]
Kiyosaki is also an endorser of network marketing (such as Amway, Tahitian Noni, Mary Kay, Quixtar, Juice Plus, etc.) which some consider to be little more than pyramid schemes. He reasons in his book, The Business School For People Who Like Helping People, that the companies teach the skills necessary to be a successful business owner, like leadership, the ability to sell and teach, and emotional intelligence. Critics say he endorses the industry in order to sell more of his books and material to their members.
On September 19, 2006, Kiyosaki wrote in a Yahoo Finance that the NYMEX is an exchange where "orange juice, pork bellies,... are traded"[12]. In reality, neither orange juice nor pork bellies are traded on the NYMEX.[13]
