Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not! by Robert T. Kiyosaki

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


It’s the best self-help book I’ve read all year.

I highly recommend this book if you’re into finance or are interested in learning more about money. The important points and exercises following each chapter are helpful and informative. It was great learning about Robert T. Kiyosaki’s rich dad and poor dad. It was helpful to see and hear both of their perspectives and to hear about Robert’s journey.

I’m thankful he is helping others; this book is eye-opening and inspiring. It was a little repetitive, but it was well worth the time investment. Robert’s rules are helpful. I underlined a lot of texts as I read through this book.

Conclusion: Get it!

Cashflow Hacking: The Playbook to Reach Financial Freedom 4x Faster – Regardless of Your Age & Income by Chris Kirkpatrick

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Helpful.

Pros:

1. Nice book cover.
2. It’s packed with great information.
3. I enjoyed reading the Kiyosaki quotes and others, such as one by Warren Buffet.
4. It’s short.
5. It’s easy to understand.
6. The illustrations were helpful.
7. The subsections were excellent.
8. The information within is not too repetitive.
9. I would re-read this.

Cons:

1. Chris Kirkpatrick and Cole Snell should only market their stuff in the back or front of the book. What I’m specifically referring to are the QR codes within the text. This slows the reader down because they may be inclined to stop and scan the QR code, breaking their reading rhythm.

I highly recommend this book if you want to learn about capital and cash flow.

The Bible and Bitcoin: A Theological Exploration of Human Time, Energy and Bitcoin by Alin Armstrong

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


A must-read for born-again Christians.

Pros:

1. It’s short.
2. The information is helpful.
3. There is practical information.
4. The title and book cover are fantastic.
5. Alin Armstrong includes the Bible references, so you can look at them separately.
6. I enjoyed how Alin Armstrong connects Bitcoin with the Bible. It’s eye-opening and memorable.

Cons:

1. The KJV isn’t used as the primary Bible of reference.
2. It is repetitive.

I enjoyed reading this short book, and you will, too, chiefly if you’re a Christian. For those of you who are not Christians, you’ll still find the book helpful, but the amount of “preaching” that Alin Armstrong does in this book may annoy you. I highly recommend this book!
