For those of you who are interested in the Rich Dad Series, you can visit the Conspiracy of the Rich to read the latest book from the author. I’ve pasted a sample in this jpg. But to read the full chapter you need to become a member of the site where you can read, consider and discuss what’s being written.

About Rober Kiyosaki

Robert Kiyosaki, author of the #1 bestselling personal finance book of all time, Rich Dad Poor Dad is taking a new approach with his next book. He’s releasing the book, Conspiracy of the Rich: The 8 New Rules of Money, online — for free. And he’s inviting readers to participate in the writing process.

So it’s worth checking out. But be aware: some powerful criticisms of Kiyosaki have been written that attempt to debunk much of his factual writing. I still think there’s something worth reading if you read between the lines, whatever stance you take on his factual accounts.

Blast from the past: The missing files…!

After doing the volte-face about WPMU, I remerged the entire blogs I had set up back into this one. However, for some weird reason a number of critical posts went missing. I still have no idea why. And I nearly lost some great posts for ever when I removed the Database, too. Still all was saved by Dreamhost not empting there trashcan on time! For that I’m very thankful. I recovered a dozen or so great posts. But to import them back to this blog, I had to publish them all. Hence yesterday’s feed blast from the past! Do check them out! Apologies if you got too much junk. Next time, I’ll disable the feed.

So they still want their bonuses…!

“(Liddy) told Geithner that some bonus payments are binding legal obligations of the company, and “there are serious legal, as well as business consequences for not paying.”

In wonder how much the staff would have got if the company had declared Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. Since the govt. bailed them out, I can’t see how these bonus claims have any merit. They’d have got NOTHING if the company had gone to the wall as it deserved.

After all, the stock is less than $1.00 so the company is in effect bankrupt anyway. Its debt obligations were so numerous that the government HAD to bail them out to stop the economy falling apart. So I can’t see how anyone can in good heart claim any thing from them. Really, you earned that… Come on!
