In April 2022, Rich Dad Poor Dad celebrated its 25th anniversary, continuing to be the top personal finance book of all time. Despite the rapid changes in the world, the core lessons about money in Robert Kiyosaki’s book remain relevant. The anniversary edition includes a new section on the significance of milestones, highlighting the book’s enduring wisdom that resonates across generations.

Over the past 25 years, financial education has become increasingly vital. As technology alters the financial landscape, the need to understand money management remains. Rich Dad Poor Dad is consistently a bestseller globally, translated into 38 languages, with over 40 million copies sold.

The book contrasts the perspectives of Kiyosaki’s two father figures—his biological father and his best friend’s wealthy father—debunking myths about wealth. It challenges the idea that high income is necessary for riches, redefines assets and liabilities, and emphasizes the importance of teaching children about money for future success.
