About the book - Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki
A Rich Dad, Poor Dad was written by Robert Kiyosaki. This book was a financial guide for people who wanted to be rich. And it's the story about Robert Kiyosaki and his two dads (i.e., his dad and his friend Mike's dad).
Here, one dad did a PhD, and another dad just did 8th grade. One struggled with money, and another was happy with money.
One says,
"Go to school, get high marks, and get a safe n secure job,"
And another says,
"Go to learn, understand money, and take a risk."
Robert got advice from both dads and wrote this book from their advice.
So the book says..

➤ When money comes into play, people are controlled by fear and greed.
