On reading Why "A" Students Work for "C" Students Part 1

OMG I cannot believe I got my hands on this book just 6 days after its official release in the U.S. considering I live in the Philippines. I got it for free too! Why "A" Students Work for "C" Students is a self-help book written by Robert Kiyosaki - my favorite personal finance author of all time.
Holding this book makes me feel giddy, kinda like that time when I first received a reply post card from Dean Cain - which was most likely just sent to me by someone from Dean Cain's Fan Club and not really Mr. Cain himself but whatever. That, was BIG, for a 13-year-old. 

THANK YOU so much to my good friend AND favorite personal finance Philippine blogger, Fitz, for letting me borrow this book.

Although the paperback is rather thick, I already know it will be a quick read for me, because the text is big, Experience on reading other RK books has also taught me that RK tends to reuse contents from his first book Rich Dad Poor Dad. He does this on purpose in my opinion, because he believes repetition is the key to retention. I couldn't agree more.

So that's it for now. I shall keep you all posted on my reading!

Part 2 
It's been 2 days that I have been reading this book. After reading the first 3 chapters, my decision to homeschool my kids has been justified. This is a book really written for parents or those who are aspiring to be one. I don't believe I am just being radical and neither is RK. What he is saying makes sense and it really is not rocket science to assess what our traditional or conventional school system has become. Sure, RK writing is for the American setting, but really, it's not a world of difference from the Philippine setting. In fact, you can be in Timbuktu and Kiyosaki's principles would still come in handy. The contents of this book or any other book from the Rich Dad Poor Dad series can be applied in any setting. This is part 2 of three posts.

    Why homeschool?
    Welcome
    My name is Bella A. Carlos. This is my first purposeful blog. I believe that home schooling my children is key to their financial security in the future. I hope this blog inspires others to look at homeschooling as a path to build wealth and eventually financial freedom.
