Is Conspiracy Of The Rich worth for you to read? The answer is all depends on your current feeling. No other person better than you to answer on this. But there are some reviews exists. I'm hoping the reviews will help you to consider pick up the book and keep on learning on your Financial Intelligence from Robert Kiyosaki.Review #1
First of all, I'm not a Kiyosaki fan...his style of writing just tends to annoy me however, he is one of those authors that is able to effectively communicate with the average person and often has one or two gems that make it worthwhile to read his books. Having said that, this book is a bit different than his others both in terms of content and style. It is primarily compiled from his website which by this point, is both a work in progress as well as a day by day breakdown of the current economic crisis unfolding as history. The book contains comments by readers of the website/blog as well as more traditional insight and commentary by Kiyosaki et al.
As a college instructor as well as business writer, I'm quite familar with authors that "try out" or compose a book from class notes, lectures, journal submissions and articles etc...but few have used an online format as a pure marketing ploy to generate both interest and actual content. I suspect it takes a highly recognized name and a major economic melt-down to pull it off. Sales of this book will certainly determine if it is pure genius or merely a gimmick.
Aside from the collaborative nature of the book, the actual writing retains the same consumer friendly, conversational tone found in former "Rich Dad" books with the very pleasant lack of constant reference to the "dads" which was a personal pet peeve. Personally I found this to be more readable than most and equally interesting.
The author departs from the prior "real estate" emphasis into a much broader investment perspective which includes precious metals and other assets, proper use of debt, information and much more. I was fairly impressed by both the rationale and future trends as well as the very "do-able" information presented. It is obvious the author has taken time to create something within the grasp of average Americans by first providing a framework for safety then moving beyond to creating choices for potentially more rewarding investments. At each step of the way a solid rationale is provided...whether one agrees or disagrees, it is valuable to reflect upon where the author is "coming from" in order to make up your own mind as to the validity of the position or not.
Readers that enjoyed Ron Pauls' recent 'End the Fed" will be delighted by the straight-forward discussion about the status of the government, Fed and more in this recent book. Kiyosaki doesn't mince words this time around and does so in a purely equitable manner that doesn't offend - but is designed to enlighten the reader to the dangers surrounding them at every turn.
More savvy investors may not find a lot new however, those searching for a fresh start or trying to make sense of the current economic crisis and future financial trends in an easy to understand way will truly appreciate this book. There is overlap from prior books but also a surprising amount of newer or revised content that is well worth the time of former readers to review.
Bottom line...a surpringly good book.
Review #2
Considering R. Kiyosaki is a wealthy man from his other books he is really providing a patriotic service to our country. As a student of the banking system and money in general, he does expose the fundamentals of who "prints" our money and to the private organization a large part of our federal taxes feed.
Because of his platform and fame, he really is exposing himself to risk on this one. He's really connecting the dots. I'm sure those in control will not appreciate this being in the mainstream. He clearly states that change isn't coming with Obama (or any President, rep. or dem) and we'll have to be the change. This book operates on this fundamental... in order to break the rules, you have to know them well. You need to know the fallacies of the "old" rules of money before you can apply the "new" rules.
This book will open your eyes to what money really is... shouldn't you know what most of the world goes to work for every day?
Pick this book up while you still can.
Thanks Robert for all of your books. My life has never been the same since reading Rich Dad Poor Dad. He has steered me clear of the "Rat Race" pitfalls most people fall into.

I personally met Robert in 1991. I've always considered him a mentor who has good information to share.Although I have not always agreed with him 100 per cent, I think his essential ideas are very sound. I've followed his writing career with interest over the years. I haven't read every one of his books, but I thought Rich Dad, Poor Dad was great, and deserved to be such a huge bestseller.
Those who are fans of Robert's investing techniques will not find a lot of new ideas here for making money. The really important information in this book has more to do with the unholy alliance of the Federal government with the big banking houses --- and how that is impacting our economy now, and in the near term future.
It also takes a critical look at the history of our educational system,examining the WHY of"why don't the schools teach much about managing money?".
This book is a serious eye-opener, and I hope Robert's fame results in a lot of people reading it.

This book will scare you straight to wealth - or into total denial. If you want to know WHY you want to become wealthy read it. If you want to know who to blame (look in the mirror) read it. If you are afraid to know the facts - well skip it.
I am buying copies for gifts to everyone I know, and even for some folks I don't know yet!
You have a choice stay a part of the growing POOR or join the wealthy. Either way you will be one of the other whither you like it or not and if you DO nothing you will automatically be POOR.
Review #5
I am familiar with the author's books, but I have never read them. I found this in the bookstore one day and read a few pages. The content was interesting so I bought a copy. There's a lot of good information here for many who are like me, average people. Some concepts from his previous books are also included here, so it may not be new to those who have already read them. But useful for those who are reading a book by Robert Kiyosaki for the first time, like me. Apart from a few redundancies and promo plug ins which may annoy some people. This book is actually good. I highly recommend this.
