Robert Kiyosaki and I share two things: 1. we both have the same excellent editor and publisher (Rick Wolff and Hachette Book Group), and 2. a strong opinion against the state of the current economy. 

Kiyosaki conducted a bold experiment in writing his latest book, Rich Dad's Conspiracy of the Rich, by crafting it in "real-time" on-line as a collaboration (in which readers could pipe in with questions, comments, and suggestions on the actual work-in-progress). Although I followed this process and read some of the content on-line, I am more of a traditionalist, learning better with a physical book in my hands. Therefore, as soon as the book hit the shelves, I picked one up.

Kiyosaki's conversational and straightforward writing style hit the mark once again. Debunking financial myths long shrouded in secrecy and confusion by money snobs, Kiyosaki attacks controversial topics relating to the current economic woes of the world. He shies away from nothing while explaining in clear terms how we got into this mess and what the average person should do about it. 

Kiyosaki will not be making friends in high places with this book, but alas, that's what always happens when one tells the truth. In part, that's what makes this book so interesting. You don't even have to agree with it all to learn from it. It is a book from which anyone seeking to increase financial education will benefit. And if you've not yet been exposed to the concepts of how the Federal Reserve fleeces the public through the "silent tax" of inflation, or how the top money interests of the world control the money supply and governments, this book will serve as a clear, hard-hitting eye opener. For those of you already up to speed on these topics, the flow of the book and its focus upon what an individual should do to survive in such a world will not disappoint.

The bottom line: this book is a must read for understanding and surviving/thriving in today's economic environment.
