Hm, a day or two after reading Rich Dad, I've started getting comments from all sorts of people about its worth (or lack thereof)! Oh well, guess it's a hallmark of me being a newb. The interesting thing is that Reed says it makes education sound less valuable than it really is, when the entire book is an argument on reforming what schools teach about finance. To be honest, it mostly reinforced in my mind information from articles like Steve's treatsie on why having a job is stupid, and why you should create multiple streams of passive income for security.

On the topic of books, what's with A Random Walk, anyway? People recommend it and shoot it down all in one breath. I was surprised to hear that it actually has a counter-book: A Non-Random Walk...
