Well I guess I should have expected that from you Rasputin,
you want someone to tell you how to get out of your rut, and you want them to tell you how for free.
Kiyosaki's books, are average recommended retail prices in the book shops, his tape sets are average prices compared to everyone elses tape sets, his seminars are pretty darn cheap compared to everyone elses,
his board game was $350 when I brought it,pretty expensive, but it has done some great stuff for me, but thats because I have foresight, can think laterally, and am able to think outside my purse. It opened some fantastic networking doors for me.
But let me guess, you wont do any networking unless its free , right rasputin?
The old adage , "you gotta spend a bit to make a bit" is very true.
Kiyosaki has a brilliant marketing team, they just keep churning out the stuff, and most of it is just rehashed from the first book, I read book 1, got half way thru book 2, decided its all the same stuff, i asked some other people on here who have read all the books, and decided i wouldnt buy anymore, its all very similar, i GOT the message from Kiyosaki already, i dont need to keep reading everything.
But thats just it Ras, I have the freewill to say, no thanks, no more, so does everyone else, so who is getting ripped off? Only those who WANT to get ripped off, those that are living with analysis paralysis, they just have to read EVERYTHING, well its their freewill to choose to buy his stuff, he isnt twisting any arms.
Has he 'ripped' you off Rasputin? How much of his stuff do you own?
Now I'm curious if your theory of "ripped off" works the other way,
Ras, If you happened to come across a house for sale, and the little old lady vendor wants $100K, and you offer here $50K, she accepts, are you ripping her off? Or are you getting a bargain?
She CAN so no, she doesnt HAVE to accept.
Kiyosaki fans CAN so no, they dont HAVE to buy it.
Kiyosaki is just running a business, if anybody thinks he is some kind of samaritan who is going to give them the secret keys to wealth for free, they better get of the mushrooms, and get back to reality.
Could Kiyosaki give you the secrets for a lot cheaper? HELL YEAH!...but why should he?, if you have great self esteem and belief in yourself, you can ask your own price, you can say " I am worth THIS much" people can only say no.
When negotiating price on a house, and if you have good self esteem, and belief in your self, you can say " I want it for this much!" People can only say no.
Kiyosaki is making a fortune from his stuff, there are a lot of people who are saying YES!
I make a lot of money when I buy houses, because a lot of people say YES.
Do I have good self esteem? You betcha baby!
