More Important Than Money: an Entrepreneur’s Team by Robert Kiyosaki
Many people have million-dollar ideas. They’re confident that their new product or service or innovation will make them rich and that all their dreams will come true. The problem is: Most people don’t know how to turn their million-dollar idea into millions of dollars.
According to many social scientists, the most important thing in life is a person’s social and professional network. In other words, the people around us―our associates, our team, our friends.
The people we surround ourselves with―and the people we go to for advice and guidance―can mean the difference between success and failure. And as he taught in Rich Dad Poor Dad, if the people around you have a poor person’s mindset, it’s likely that you’ll be, or stay, poor.
Your team, in life and in business, will determine if your million-dollar idea will give you a million-dollar payday.In More Important Than Money, Robert teams up with his most trusted Advisors who contribute not only chapters on the strengths and talents they bring to the team, but offer candid and insightful individual Profiles and excerpts from each of the 14 Rich Dad Advisor Series books. Readers will meet all of Robert’s Rich Dad Advisors and learn why they are among his most valuable assets.
