Product Description
One of the basic tenets of the Rich Dad philosophy is to make the jump from employee to boss. This is the book that shows you how to make that leap - in 10 easy steps. Everyone in business knows that you won't ever achieve great wealth by being an employee. The real secret to making money and reaching financial independence is to start your own company and develop it quickly. Millions of aspiring entrepreneurs are already convinced that this is the way to go - but they just don't know how to take those first few steps. In BEFORE YOU QUIT YOUR JOB, Robert Kiyosaki presents first-hand accounts of his own start-up companies and how he learned from both his failures and his successes. Along the way he explains the basics of: * How to determine if your idea is a good one * How to write a solid business plan and where to find Othe People's Money to help finance the idea * How to incorporate yourself for business and tax purposes * How to help you find key advisors to help develop your concept * How to best launch your product or service.

5 out of 5 stars I am about to leave my job, in three weeks!!   August 25, 2008
Rich Dad's Before You Quit Your Job: 10 Real-Life Lessons Every Entrepreneur Should Know About Building a Multimillion-Dollar Business (Rich Dad's)

This book allowed me to have peace of mind and be prepared to go into business.

For someone like me who will be starting a small business, rather than looking for another job, it walks you through the different phases before you are cut loose.

It certainlly helped me have a different point of view and enableded me to decide and not hesitate on what I have been wanting to do for a long time: get in the road to the I quadrant.

If you ever wanted to know what it's like to start your business the right way, but were afraid to ask...read this book along with the "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," series.


5 out of 5 stars Secrets of the Entrepreneurial Personality   November 28, 2007
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Are you an employee hoping to become an entrepreneur? If so, you should reflect on your own character and inclinations before quitting your job. Making the switch from employment to business leadership can involve learning new skills and adopting new attitudes. You will need to tolerate financial risk, live without a regular paycheck, and develop top-notch selling skills. And you will need to energize yourself with a sense of purpose that will inspire your employees, vendors, and customers. These are the kinds of issues raised by the authors, as they focus on the personal traits necessary for successful entrepreneurship.

This book is less about the nuts and bolts of starting a business than it is about how to prepare for entrepreneurship within your own mind. Even the relatively few practical matters that are mentioned tend to be explained in a personal way. In the process, some conventional business terminology is adapted to suit the authors' usage. For example, what the authors refer to as a marketing tactic might more universally be considered a unique selling proposition, or an element of product positioning.

Nonetheless, the authors give a great deal of good advice, from how to hire and fire, to how to discourage office backstabbing. The stories they tell are interesting and very readable, including an account of how they have encouraged their own employees to become financially independent, rather than remaining dependent on a regular paycheck. Above all, the authors' analysis of the ideal entrepreneurial frame of mind should be of great value for anyone considering abandoning steady employment to start their own business.

4 out of 5 stars Another great book by Robert T. Kiyosaki.   July 30, 2007

I found this more helpful than some of his other more recent books. It's not just a reiteration of his old information. It goes over some key points of his first book but hits on many things and mistakes he went through in his many businesses. He then applies the things he has learned and puts them in this book in ways which anyone can understand. There are some insightful tips from Sharon Lecter in here too.
