    Short on time? Or maybe you’ve already read the book, but need a refresh on the most important takeaways. In a quick, easy listen, you can take the main principles from Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not! 
    Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki is a bestselling book that has become the #1 personal finance book of all time. In the book, Kiyosaki seeks to describe the lessons about money that rich fathers teach their children versus the teachings of poor and middle-class families. Moreover, Kiyosaki uses personal anecdotes from his poor dad—his real father, a hardworking man who couldn’t seem to make ends meet—and his rich dad—his mentor, a middle school dropout turned millionaire—to show how people must challenge their view of money to find richness even if they don’t earn a high income. 
    Having been translated into multiple languages and having sold over thirty-six million copies across the world, Rich Dad Poor Dad is a powerful book that has changed the way many people view financial freedom and financial education. This book shows a new point of view to finances that many people have not been taught. Using this information, Kiyosaki was able to retire before he turned fifty. Ultimately, this book debunks several myths and suggests that everyone can have financial security if they use the knowledge outlined in this book. 
    This audiobook encapsulates key takeaways found in the original book. We’ve also provided an in-depth analysis as well as removing any fluff to save you hours of your time. If you’ve read the original, then this audio summary will help you solidify the most important lessons.

    Karl Marx's Capital is one of the most important texts written in the modern era. Since 1867, when the first of its three volumes was published, it has had a profound effect on politics and economics in theory and practice throughout the world. But Marx wrote in the context of capitalism in the second half of the nineteenth century: his assumptions and analysis need to be updated in order to address the technological, economic, and industrial change that has followed Capital's initial publication. 
     
     
     
    In Marx, Capital, and the Madness of Economic Reason, David Harvey not only provides a concise distillation of his famous course on Capital, but also makes the text relevant to the twenty-first century's continued processes of globalization. Harvey shows the work's continuing analytical power, doing so in the clearest and simplest terms but never compromising its depth and complexity. 
     
     
     
    Marx, Capital, and the Madness of Economic Reason provides an accessible window into Harvey's unique approach to Marxism and takes listeners on a riveting roller coaster ride through recent global history. It demonstrates how and why Capital remains a living, breathing document with an outsized influence on contemporary social thought.

    This message will be a revelation of great importance to every American interested in the ideals, hopes and aspirations of the founders of the United states. It will be found especially interesting to those who have wondered about the outcome of the present world conditions and the future of the American people. 
    To say that the early American founders did not dream of establishing a republic that would endure and eventually grow into the ideal state of the Golden Rule would not do them justice nor would it display an understanding of human nature.
