Because of the above information, i am determine to study about financial education for myself and teach this to other people

for i personaly dont want to be a victim of other's people scam

and i dont want my children will suffer from the deceit of others, i will protect them, it will start now

well my family is thinking on getting the school program from Kiyosaki, but right now were still too busy surviving but once its all solved we will be emailing them. I read that they are willing to support schools, so well see. Maybe in 2 years I will have the Kiyosaki program in our school

OT: too bad Im too busy right now to join the club :P when is the next registration at least Ill be prepared for the next one, I can ask donations from my friends hehehe

i couldn't download the video, dudes. well anyway, kiyosaki has always claimed that teaching financial literacy is his mission in life, but i don't know if his approach now is good at all. using his analogy of business being a team sport, i can say that social reform is also a team sport. there are only a few individuals in this world who had/has done it singlehandedly...oh well even martin luther king and gandhi had the masses eventually taking their side. going against the politicians (and bashing them in his expose) is rather an "anti" rather than a cooperative move, isn't it?

siya ra bitaw nag ingon nga the HMOs will always be stronger than the unions of medical professionals because the former is composed of various professions plus the business sector. now what will happen if he's going against politicians? no funds for the schools. no grants for research. no nothing from the tax pie.

oh i may just be blabbering here without knowing really what his point is as I haven't seen the video. i have to see it. but at this point it is my hope that i'd see his principles of cooperation and team sport applied in his very noble mission of educating the world on financial literacy.

... nice one. People have money but the problem is they don't know how to properly spend it. If the theory of politicians blocking financial education on schools is true, then it's hopeless. The only feasible thing to do is for people who have financial-knowledge, should disperse such tidings. Make information-drives on budgeting.

Simple... If our school don't teach us those important things that we need to know (including financial education), then we have to study it for ourselves. We don't have to depend on our educational system since we have our own brains to learn and study.

... that's what most people are doing right now. But a very basic lesson on financing instilled on schools will be a very big help. Educate young minds, especially high school students who doesn't know the value of money yet.

@fingolfin and @sanosuke

its gud to campaign against financial illiteracy - this is the erason why people have suffered from poverty that sometimes leads to crimes

there are many people who are ignorant, they thought that working hard will solve their problem, its financial managment, for me Rich Dad, Poor Dad is a must-read to all
