Acknowledgments

My rich dad always said, “Business and investing are team sports.” The same can be said when writing a book—especially a book like the one you have in your hand. We have made history with Rich Dad’s Conspiracy of the Rich. As the first truly interactive online book in the Rich Dad series, it took me into uncharted waters. Thankfully, I have a great team, and I relied on them often. Each one of them stepped up to the plate and delivered even beyond my expectations.

Above all, thank you to my beautiful bride, Kim, for her encouragement and support. You’ve been with me along every step of our financial journey, both the good and not so good. You are my partner and my reason for success.

Thank you to Jake Johnson of Elevate Consulting Company (elevatecompany.net) for his help in shaping the book and my thoughts, and for helping take this book from an idea to a reality. Also, thanks to my editors Rick Wolff and Leah Tracosas at Hachette for their tireless efforts to make this project a success—and for taking a chance.

Special thanks to Rhonda Shenkiryk of the Rich Dad Company and Rachael Pierson of Metaphour (metaphour.com) for their tireless efforts on the promotion of the book, and for the top-notch website that was home to this book for so long.

Much thanks to the Rich Dad Team Members who are in the trenches every day, and who have persevered and stuck with Kim and me through thick and thin. You are the heartbeat of our organization.
