Rich Dad - Poor Dad book review

The book Rich Dad - Poor Dad book is one of the books I suggest to people to read for a start for their financial education. It is written by Robert T. Kiyosaki. He has several best seller books he has written on various financial education. I feel you can learn from any of his books. But the Rich Dad - Poor Dad book is the first one I suggest you read out of all the books he has written. Hopefully if you have kids you will be able to pass on what you learn to them. Here are some notes I have from when I read it last:

Great time for lower Gas price’s

I know I really like these gas prices much better than I did earlier this year. For my self alone I am spending about $150 per month less on gas. I know I have had friends put off going on vacation or to see there relatives and friends due to the high gas prices. Car dealers in town have a lot of trucks just sitting there not selling. I have had many friends that traded their SUV’s off for a smaller car that gets better gas mileage. My neighbor went out and bought a moped to drive to work to save money. People have made less shopping trips for just a few items due to realizing how much money they are spending in just gas. So what does OPEC have to do with the gas retails?
