"" It is hard to challenge certain truisms. Either you are musical or you are not. Artistic or not. A born entrepreneur or not. Here, the author challenges that last statement. He clearly affirms that anyone CAN be an entrepreneur, but he then spells out the all-important "BUT""s. But you must become at least competent at a core set of skills or don't even go into business. If you can't sell, you MUST take some readily available steps to learn it. There are no short-cuts here. But there is plentiful clear-cut advice. I had already been self-employed for seven years when I started reading. Within a very few chapters, I learned what aspects of my business were was stalled and how I could break free. One thing has led to another and I now enjoy tackling the necessary challenges. Every day has brought new achievements. Like the "Rich Dad" who mentored him, Mr. Kiyosaki has become a no-nonsense source of advice for people who want to do more than just yearn for a career in business. If you want a cheerleader, DO NOT look here. If you want a fantastic coach, suit up and play. ""

"Before You Quit Your Job continues to teach about the business world and how to start your own business and be successful. It is NOT more of the same info that was in RDPD and Financial IQ. I was concerned it would be, and I was pleasantly surprised. This is more about what types of businesses will be successful, how to set them up, and mostly the minset required for an entrepreneur who never wants to be an employee ever again! I sure can relate, and thank Mr Kiyosaki for this book and the valuable lessons, from an experienced businessman who's been there before, within."

"You can't go wrong with Robert Kiyosaki. I wish I would of read this one before I quit my job! This is a must read if you are even thinking of quitting your job to start a business. He tells like it is, honest and straight forward. A must read!"

""So many people I know want to quit their job and start a business. The independance and freedom behind it, the opportunity to make more money and enjoy a greater lifestyle than they could by being an employee for a company is usually the driving force behind this pursuit of this, the real American Dream. For most would be enterpreneurs, this book is a real wake up call. It's more than that. It explains why the greatest idea out there can and will still fail, and what needs to be in place to assure its success. It teaches if you're missing one of the key ingredients, you'll stumble and fall, yet it gives you vague insight as to how to get these ingredients you lack. Vague insight only, because each business is too unique to have specific details laid out in a book. (This is where a mentor or business coach can give you specifics should you need them.) For the small business owner out there, this is a highly recommended, quick read that can give you enough insight to kick your business up to the next level. It will help you identify and tie up the loose ends that can come back to haunt you later.""

"Great way to expand your way of thinking and to open up a while new world.Well worth reading if you are serious about being an entrepreneur"

"" wish I had read this book before quitting my job and launching my first entrepreneurial pursuit about six years ago, which took off fast and promptly failed after two years. I would have saved myself thousands of dollars and much heartache. I still would have quit my job, but not as soon as I did. With this book as a guide I would have been better prepared financial and mentally to take the plunge. Having read every book in the RichDad series, this is by far one of the best. Robert does a great job explaining the distinct differences of an entrepreneur and employee(mindset, attitude, responsibilities etc), explaining what pitfalls to avoid, listing the key skills every entrepreneur needs to develop, covering the 3 types of money and (my favorite) the importance of an entrepreneur's pursuit of mission over money. Im preparing to launch my next venture and having read this book twice I definitely feel I'm on my way to a much smoother transition from employee to entrepreneur. If your thinking of quitting your job and becoming an entrepreneur this book will help you decide if you should jump ship or stay in the boat a little longer. Best wishes to you on your pursuit."
