Moreover, Kiyosaki uses personal anecdotes from his poor dad—his real father, a hardworking man who couldn’t seem to make ends meet—and his rich dad—his mentor, a middle school dropout turned millionaire—to show how people must challenge their view of money to find richness even if they don’t earn a high income.
