title: Rich Dad Poor Dad for Teens: The Secrets About Money--That You Don't Learn in School!
author:  Robert T. Kiyosaki 
description: Grade 6 UpKiyosaki, a bestselling author for adults, has specifically targeted teens in his attempt to promote his philosophy. What makes this book unique is his approach to how he thinks about accumulating wealth and about having money work for the earner. "Poor Dad" accepts the notion that he will never be rich and thinks that "money doesn't matter." "Rich Dad" thinks that "money is power." Teens are encouraged to be creative in developing ways to earn cash and to limit spending. A chapter on identifying individual strengths and learning styles while developing a financial IQ on the path to financial freedom is a lesson for any age. Sidebars and quizzes promote individual ideas and concepts. Teens will be attracted by the notion of playing games to learn more about acquiring assets and managing money. The glossary clearly explains financial terms. An entertaining and informative book.<i>Kathleen A. Nester, Downingtown High Ninth Grade Center, PA</i>

  1976-graduating with honors, and near the top of my class, in accounting from
  Florida
  
  
  State University-my parents had realized their goal. It was the crowning
  achievement of
