In Rich Dad Poor Dad, author Kiyosaki once had an interview session where the Interviewer expressed her aspiration to become an established author like him someday. Upon his suggestion to attend a good sales training session, she felt quite offended &amp; replied that she's a writer and not a salesperson. The quote Kiyosaki cited later, still resonates in my mind. He said,"On the top of my books it's written *Best-SELLING Author* &amp; not *Best-Writing Author*".

I'm a BEST-SELLING Author & not a Best-Writing one!

Although we have been successful in our careers, they have not turned out quite as we expected. We both have changed positions several times-for all the right reasons-but there are no pension plans vesting on our behalf. Our retirement funds are growing only through our individual contributions. Michael and I have a wonderful marriage with three great children. As I write this, two are in college and one is just beginning high school. We have spent a fortune making sure our children have received the best education available. One day in 1996, one of my children came home disillusioned with school. He was bored and tired of studying. “Why should I put time into studying subjects I will never use in real life?” he protested. Without thinking, I responded, “Because if you don't get good grades, you won't get into college.” “Regardless of whether I go to college,” he replied, “I'm going to be rich.”
