Introduction

RICH DAD POOR DAD

Having two dads offered me the choice of contrasting points of
view: one of a rich man and one of a poor man.
I had two fathers, a rich one and a poor one. One was highly educated
and intelligent. He had a Ph.D. and completed four years of undergraduate
work in less than two years. He then went on to Stanford University, the
University of Chicago, and Northwestern University to do his advanced
studies, all on full financial scholarships. The other father never finished the
eighth grade.
Both men were successful in their careers, working hard all their lives.
Both earned substantial incomes. Yet one always struggled financially. The
other would become one of the richest men in Hawaii. One died leaving
tens of millions of dollars to his family, charities, and his church. The other
left bills to be paid.
Both men were strong, charismatic, and influential. Both men offered
me advice, but they did not advise the same things. Both men believed
strongly in education but did not recommend the same course of study.
If I had only one dad, I would have had to accept or reject his advice.
Having two dads offered me the choice of contrasting points of view: one of
a rich man and one of a poor man.

Whether you buy a homesite in the School Section, broad acres in the Shaker Country Estates,
or one of the houses offered by this company in a choice of neighborhoods, your purchase
includes facilities for golf, riding, tennis, boating; it includes unexcelled schools; and it
includes protection forever against depreciation and unwelcome change.

Actually, though, all things considered, people from Shaker Heights are basically pretty much
like people everywhere else in America. They may have three or four cars instead of one or
two, and they may have two television sets instead of one, and when a Shaker Heights girl
gets married she may have a reception for eight hundred, with the Meyer Davis band flown in
from New York, instead of a wedding reception for a hundred with a local band, but these are
all differences of degree rather than fundamental differences. “We’re friendly people and we
have a wonderful time!” said a woman at the Shaker Heights Country Club recently, and she
was right, for the inhabitants of Utopia do, in fact, appear to lead a rather happy life.
—“The Good Life in Shaker Heights,” Cosmopolitan, March 1963
