@ Tyler

Exactly, Robert Kiyosaki is a great salesperson and motivator. I find it funny how people think that by reading Robert’s books they should automatically know how to become millionaires and build wealth. His job, not anybody else’s job is make you rich. It’s your job to make yourself rich, if you so choose. Kiyosaki’s books and motivational talks are just a foundation for you to build on. I started reading his books right out of college and today I run a successful 6 figure per month internet business tat took time, hard work, sleepless night and everything else I poured into it, to build. Does Kiyosaki ever talk about building an Internet Business to become rich, NO! It’s your job to experiment and find what works for you to build the life that you want to make for yourself. I guarantee everyone that talks down on Kiyosaki and his views on entrepreneurship/investing is either POOR or MIDDLE-CLASS and has to work for a living!

Khalsa,
Regarding your comment: “Even a dead clock is right twice a day”,
that was extremely well said.

Silver is 26% of all Metals.
Metals is 57.5% of my entire portfolio.
My entire portfolio is 61.24% of my net worth.

In another words, my silver-related holdings are
26% * 57.5% * 61.2% = 9.1% of my net worth or
26% * 57.5% = 15% of my entire portfolio

My portfolio does not include real estate nor my company holdings and some misc.

Can you explain why you have Metals 57.5% and then Silver/Metals = 26%?

Greetings,
I too believe that RK should stick to what he does best…build business and sell motivational books. If you read all of his books, you can tell that he isn’t a great investor as far as the stock market is concerned. However, he is a great salesperson and a great motivator. He prays on peoples hopes and dreams and that is how he makes money…PERIOD.
Great article and thanks for the work!
