Hi, I'm interested. Do we have to pay the full amount or installment (like 50% DP then the other 50% during the 1st day)?

IMHO, The best way to make money is to franchise a business. Franchising a business will help lower the risk upon setting up your own money making entity. Check out Philippine Franchise - Directory of Business Opportunities and Franchises in Philippines for a complete list of franchises in the Philippines. There are plenty of franchises to choose from in Philippine Franchise directory.

i already have ticket for me and my wife. its so cheap compared to the P30K i paid for a 3 day short term course at AIM in Makati

The 2000php is everything already. If you think of it, that's already cheap for a beautiful place and buffet meals for 2 days and 1 night. In fact, Jerome San does seminars and talks at a very espensive cost. Attending to a regular bootcamp with this kind of high caliber speaker is like 5k-7k per head.

Ask this question to yourself:
When was the last time have you ever heard a multi-millionaire sharing his secrets to success?
Or have you had a chance?

This is too good to be true lagi. Hmmm... Be careful guys! tinsay naka register na? Is this for real??

Before you get carried away by his Japanese-sounding name, read his book first and judge it for yourself. To me, his signature book, Rich Dad, Poor Dad, was a disappointment. It had nothing new to say. He starts by pandering to the working-wounded's sentiments. He knows that if these people had a choice, they'd leave their bosses behind and do something for themselves. He jeers at the fact that the working man has to ask permission for just about anything he wants to do. He calls them "slaves to paycheck". Then he turns his attack on schools, saying that schools are bad teachers for aspiring entrepreneurs. He gives the example of his poor, biological dad who was supposedly a scholastic achiever but who found himself near bankruptcy when he was about to retire. And then he talks about his famous quadrant, obviously pointing to the UI-quadrant (Ultimate Investor/Entrepreneur) as the best way to go...with the caveat that this path is reserved for a special breed of people. He'll tell you about the need to get a financial education, his Cash Flow board game being a good tool <wink> <wink> and why it doesn't take money to make money, and all that jazz.

What I found out about Robert Kiyosaki is that he used to be (and perhaps still is) an AMWAY guy...you know, those stubborn network marketing (or whatever name it's called nowadays) people who always want to show you how to make money in your spare time. In fact, Kiyosaki recommends network marketing for people who want to get some training in entrepreneurship. Yeah, yeah, there are people who got rich this way...but trust me you're not gonna be one of them. They'll tell you that you can get rich through recruiting. Who wants to go around bothering people like a headless chicken? It's quite a pathetic scene where someone spends the whole day at the mall trying desperately to find naive people to fool.

But the most curious thing about all these network marketing talks is that they never fail to put up a firewall against criticisms. They'll warn you against reading about the negative publicity on network marketing. At this point, you have to wonder why they don't trust you to make your own judgment about the things you read. If you are as skeptical as I am, your BS alarm would start ringing like crazy at this point.

When you start researching on the web, you'll perhaps stumble upon this article from MSNBC: In pursuit of the almighty dollar. Read it and see its expose on the AMWAY-Quixtar scam. If you haven't read about this piece of news back in January 2010, well, here's your opportunity to catch up about Kiyosaki's latest trouble, an expose video from the Canadian Broadcasting Corp.: Who's getting rich off Rich Dad?

AMWAY, a scam? And Robert used to be associated with it and even recommending it? And after you've taken a look at that video from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, doesn't Kiyosaki look so pathetic in coming up with his excuses and lies after getting caught with his in the cookie jar? I guess there's more to know about Robert and his methods. Check out this website: John T. Reed's analysis of Robert Kiyosaki's book.

After reading Rich Dad, you may be tempted to drop out of school and just follow Kiyosaki to the Promised Land (Like he said, "IF YOU WANT TO BE RICH AND HAPPY, DON'T GO TO SCHOOL"). Don't listen to that dangerous and stupid advice. Finish your schooling. Don't be ashamed to take up a job if you don't see yourself as an entrepreneur. The only guy Kiyosaki is making rich is himself---selling his books, CDs, boardgames, and oh...his expensive, "hurry! limited time offer only!" talks.

If you need to spend that much just to be told to get a financial education, I can do that for you FOR FREE! Get a financial education....but don't let Kiyosaki tell you that.
