ADVICE ON MONEY - REVIEW OF ROBERT T KIYOSAKI'S "INCREASE YOUR FINANCIAL IQ"

I read my first Robert Kiyosaki book Rich Dad, Poor Dad (1997) about five years ago. Since then I have been hooked on Kiyosaki's writings and I have read several of his books more than once.

It was only by reading Kiyosaki did I fully appreciate the importance of money and a financial education. During my PhD years I was much influenced by one of my professors who said: "Some people know how money works; some people know how ideas work." I aspired to be an ivory tower thinker with not much involvement with mundane things like money.

THE PREVALENCE OF FORCE - REVIEW OF DAVID GRAEBER'S "DEBT"

In his book Debt: The First 5000 Years (2011), David Graeber proves to be an original and provocative thinker. Graeber is a professor of anthropology and described as an anarchist (I suppose he is an economist of the Left while Murray Rothbard, the Austrian economist would be an anarchist of the Right). Graber was one of the organizers of the Occupy Wall Street movement.
