We use them to measure time, mark progress, reflect on the lessons we’ve learned, and celebrate accomplishments… and they give meaning to our life’s journey. They are a way that we integrate past, present, and future… looking back at where we started, where we are today… and the promise of all that the future can hold.In the quarter century that has passed since Rich Dad Poor Dad was first published — 25 years since April 8, 1997 — so many things in our world have changed. But the one thing that has not changed is the pressing need for and the power of financial education. Money is still a mainstay of our lives, like it or not, and technology has brought both speed and innovations to the world of money. In an ever-changing world, we can all still get smarter when it comes to money… and learn as much as we can to secure our future.Still the One… #1 Today Rich Dad Poor Dad consistently ranks among bestsellers around the world in the categories of Personal Finance, Parenting, and Investing, has been translated into 38 languages, and has sold more than 40 million copies worldwide.Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert s story of growing up with two dads — his real father and the father of his best friend, his rich dad — and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing.

Why the Dutch are Different - Ben Coates

*A SCOTSMAN TRAVEL BOOK OF THE YEAR* Stranded at Schiphol airport, Ben Coates called up a friendly Dutch girl he d met some months earlier. He stayed for dinner. Actually, he stayed for good. In the first book to consider the hidden heart and history of the Netherlands from a modern perspective, the author explores the length and breadth of his adopted homeland and discovers why one of the world s smallest countries is also so significant and so fascinating. It is a self-made country, the Dutch national character shaped by the ongoing battle to keep the water out from the love of dairy and beer to the attitude to nature and the famous tolerance. Ben Coates investigates what makes the Dutch the Dutch, why the Netherlands is much more than Holland and why the colour orange is so important. Along the way he reveals why they are the world s tallest people and have the best carnival outside Brazil. He learns why Amsterdam s brothels are going out of business, who really killed Anne Frank, and how the Dutch manage to be richer than almost everyone else despite working far less. He also discovers a country which is changing fast, with the Dutch now questioning many of the liberal policies which made their nation famous.A personal portrait of a fascinating people, a sideways history and an entertaining travelogue, Why the Dutch are Different is the story of an Englishman who went Dutch. And loved it.

The Invention of Amsterdam - Ben Coates

How do you create a job? Will the BRIC countries take over the world? Asking - among many other things -- what the future holds for the Euro, why the banks are still paying record bonuses and where government borrowing will take us, in The Undercover Economist Strikes Back, Tim Harford returns with his trademark clarity and wit to explain what s really going on - and what it means for us all.

The Backsliders - Susan C. Stokes

Why democracy is under assault across the globe by the leaders entrusted to preserve itDemocracies around the world are getting swept up in a wave of democratic erosion. Since the beginning of the twenty-first century, two dozen presidents and prime ministers have attacked their countriesâ ™ democratic institutions, violating political norms, aggrandizing their own powers, and often trying to overstay their terms in office. The Backsliders offers the first general explanation for this wave. Drawing on a wealth of original research, Susan Stokes shows that increasing income inequality, a legacy of late twentieth-century globalization, left some countries especially at risk of backsliding toward autocracy. Left-behind voters were drawn to right-wing ethnonationalist leaders in countries like the United States, India, and Brazil, and to left-wing populist ones in countries like Venezuela, Mexico, and South Africa. Unlike military leaders who abruptly kill democracies in coups, elected leaders who erode them gradually must maintain some level of public support. They do so by encouraging polarization among citizens and also by trash-talking their democracies: claiming that the institutions they attack are corrupt and incompetent. They tell voters that these institutions should be torn down and replaced by ones under the executiveâ ™s control. The Backsliders describes how journalists, judges, NGOs, and opposition leaders can put the brakes on democratic erosion, and how voters can do so through political engagement and the power of the ballot box.

The Science of Getting Rich - Wallace D. Wattles

“FORMLESS INTELLIGENCE” STANDSREADY TO CARRY OUT YOUR WISHESWith this key principle, success pioneer Wallace D. Wattles (1860-1911) introduced the world to The Science of Getting Rich.This edition of Wattles’ classic faithfully reproduces the author’s complete text as originally published in 1910. A new introduction by popular voice of esoteric ideas Mitch Horowitz contextualizes the historical background of the author and his pioneering publisher Elizabeth Towne.Mitch’s Afternotes following each chapter amplify Wattles’ methods and provide powerful exercises and insights, including how to remove hidden blocks; experiments in “retrocausality;” receiving results through “established channels;” getting in touch with your most authentic desires, and ways to maintain a consistent mindset.Wattles’ classic text teaches you: How ideas shape the physical world. Why creativity matters more than competition. Why one passionately felt aim is the foundation of all achievement. How your mental powers and practical abilities work together. How to think in a “Certain Way” to guarantee success. How the formless creative matter of life is acted on by your intelligence.“The law of the Increase of Life,” Wattles writes, “is as mathematically certain in its operation as the law of gravitation; getting rich is an exact science.” In his brief yet seismically powerful volume, Wattles distills his insights—with the added benefits of the historical background and exercises found in this Maple Spring edition.If you are new to The Science of Getting Rich or if you’re revisiting it for a refresher, here is the signature volume to experience.

Bohatství je volba - Robert T. Kiyosaki

Nové dílo Roberta T. Kiyosakiho navazuje na světově proslulou knihu Bohatý táta, chudý táta a představuje praktický vzdělávací kurz, jehož cílem je pomoci lidem změnit způsob, jakým přemýšlejí o penězích, práci a životních příležitostech. Kiyosaki vychází z jednoduché, ale zásadní myšlenky: bohatství není otázkou náhody, původu nebo štěstí, ale výsledkem volby a souboru dovedností, které se může naučit každý. Autor klade důraz na rozdíl mezi aktivy a pasivy a učí čtenáře soustředit se na budování majetku, který generuje příjem. Finanční nezávislost podle něj začíná u ochoty převzít plnou zodpovědnost za vlastní život a přestat spoléhat se na zaměstnavatele či stát. Kiyosaki zdůrazňuje nutnost finanční gramotnosti – schopnost rozumět účetním výkazům, cash-flow a základním investičním principům – jako klíč k dlouhodobému bohatství.

Položili ste si už niekedy nasledujúce otázky? Prečo niektorí investori zarábajú peniaze s minimálnym rizikom, zatiaľ čo iní stále nevedia prekročiť hranicu rentability a dosahovať zisk? Prečo väčšina zamestnancov strieda zamestnania, zatiaľ čo iní jednoducho odídu z jedného, aby následne vybudovali veľké spoločnosti a podnikateľské impériá?Čo pre mňa a moju rodinu znamená prechod z priemyselného veku do veku informácií?Ako môžem využiť túto zmenu vo svoj prospech a vytýčiť si cestu k finančnej slobode?Kniha CASHFLOW KVADRANT bola napísaná pre tých, ktorí sú pripravení... presunúť sa za hranice mimo istoty zamestnania a začať hľadať vlastný svet finančnej slobody,urobiť vo svojom živote významné zmeny, prevziať kontrolu nad svojou finančnou budúcnosťou a uchopiť ju do vlastných rúk,„Hlavný dôvod, prečo ľudia zápasia s finančnými ťažkosťami, spočíva v tom, že síce trávia roky v škole, ale nenaučia sa nič o peniazoch.

„Ak to nedokážete vysvetliť šesťročnému dieťaťu, potom tomu nerozumiete ani vy sami.“ – Albert Einstein 84 % študentov hovorí, že potrebuje finančné vzdelanie. Iba 20 % učiteľov ich to dokáže naučiť. 91 % rodičov hovorí, že je odhodlaných dať svojmu dieťaťu lekcie o finančnej zodpovednosti. Vždy som sa pýtal svojich učiteľov: „Prečo ma neučíte o peniazoch?“ Nikdy mi na moju jednoduchú otázku neodpovedali. Do akej miery je dnešná kríza krízou vzdelávania... alebo nedostatkom vzdelania? Čo dnes môže rodič urobiť – doma –, aby poskytol svojmu dieťaťu počiatočnú výhodu? Táto kniha je určená rodičom, ktorí chcú pripraviť svoje dieťa na svet, na ktorý ho školy nepripravia – na skutočný svet peňazí. – Robert Kiyosaki

Why Buddhism Is True - Robert Wright

From one of America’s most brilliant writers, a New York Times bestselling journey through psychology, philosophy, and lots of meditation to show how Buddhism holds the key to moral clarity and enduring happiness.At the heart of Buddhism is a simple claim: The reason we suffer—and the reason we make other people suffer—is that we don’t see the world clearly. At the heart of Buddhist meditative practice is a radical promise: We can learn to see the world, including ourselves, more clearly and so gain a deep and morally valid happiness. In this “sublime” (The New Yorker), pathbreaking book, Robert Wright shows how taking this promise seriously can change your life—how it can loosen the grip of anxiety, regret, and hatred, and how it can deepen your appreciation of beauty and of other people. He also shows why this transformation works, drawing on the latest in neuroscience and psychology, and armed with an acute understanding of human evolution. This book is the culmination of a personal journey that began with Wright’s landmark book on evolutionary psychology, The Moral Animal, and deepened as he immersed himself in meditative practice and conversed with some of the world’s most skilled meditators. The result is a story that is “provocative, informative and...deeply rewarding” (The New York Times Book Review), and as entertaining as it is illuminating. Written with the wit, clarity, and grace for which Wright is famous, Why Buddhism Is True lays the foundation for a spiritual life in a secular age and shows how, in a time of technological distraction and social division, we can save ourselves from ourselves, both as individuals and as a species.

The Ride of a Lifetime : Lessons in Creative Leadership from the CEO of the Walt Disney Company - Robert Iger

The CEO of Disney, one of Time s most influential people of 2019, shares the ideas and values he embraced to reinvent one of the most beloved companies in the world and inspire the people who bring the magic to life. Robert Iger became CEO of The Walt Disney Company in 2005, during a difficult time. Morale had deteriorated, competition was intense, and technology was changing faster than at any time in the company s history. His vision came down to three clear ideas: Recommit to the concept that quality matters, embrace technology instead of fighting it, and think bigger-think global-and turn Disney into a stronger brand in international markets. Fourteen years later, Disney is the largest, most respected media company in the world, counting Pixar, Marvel, Lucasfilm and 21st Century Fox among its properties. Its value is nearly five times what it was when Iger took over, and he is recognized as one of the most innovative and successful CEOs of our era. In The Ride of a Lifetime, Robert Iger shares the lessons he s learned while running Disney and leading its 200,000 employees, and he explores the principles that are necessary for true leadership, including: Optimism. Even in the face of difficulty, an optimistic leader will find the path toward the best possible outcome and focus on that, rather than give in to pessimism and blaming. Courage. Leaders have to be willing to take risks and place big bets. Fear of failure destroys creativity. Decisiveness. All decisions, no matter how difficult, can be made on a timely basis. Indecisiveness is both wasteful and destructive to morale. Fairness. Treat people decently, with empathy, and be accessible to them. This book is about the relentless curiosity that has driven Iger for forty-five years, since the day he started as the lowliest studio grunt at ABC. It s also about thoughtfulness and respect, and a decency-over-dollars approach that has become the bedrock of every project and partnership Iger pursues, from a deep friendship with Steve Jobs in his final years to an abiding love of the Star Wars mythology. The ideas in this book strike me as universal Iger writes. Not just to the aspiring CEOs of the world, but to anyone wanting to feel less fearful, more confidently themselves, as they navigate their professional and even personal lives.

Why the Jews? - Dennis Prager, Joseph Telushkin

Why have Jews been the object of the most enduring and universal hatred in history? Why is the Jewish state the most hated country in the world today? Drawing on extensive historical research, Prager and Telushkin reveal how Judaism s distinctive conceptions of God, Law, and Peoplehood, have rendered the Jews, and now the Jewish state as well, to other people s God, laws, or national allegiances. Anti-Semitism is not just another ethnic or racial prejudice, and it is not caused, as so many people falsely believe, by Jewish economic success or the need for scapegoats. Rather, anti-Semitism today, as in the past, is a reaction to Judaism and its distinctive values. Separate chapters document how anti-Semitism is a unique hatred (no other prejudice has been as universal, deep, or permanent), and how the Chosen People idea has spawned hatred. The role of non-Jewish Jews such as Marx and the M.I.T. professor, Noam Chomsky, in provoking anti-Jewish animosity as well is examined and explained. WHY THE JEWS? also provides an authoritative overview of the seven major forms of anti-Semitism the Jewish people have suffered: pagan, Christian, Muslim, Enlightenment, Leftist, Nazi and anti-Zionist anti-Semitism. Prager and Telushkin explain why anti-Semitism poses a mortal danger to moral non-Jews, and what kind of changes would have to happen to produce a world without hatred of the Jews.

Continuing the saga begun in I, Claudius, Robert Graves s Claudius the God is a compelling fictional autobiography of the Roman emperor, published with an introduction by Barry Unsworth in Penguin Modern Classics. Claudius has survived the murderous intrigues of his predecessors to become, reluctantly, Emperor of Rome. Here he recounts his surprisingly successful reign: how he cultivates the loyalty of the army and the common people to repair the damage caused by Caligula; his relations with the Jewish King Herod Agrippa; and his invasion of Britain.But the growing paranoia of absolute power and the infidelity of his promiscuous young wife Messalina mean that his good fortune will not last forever. In this second part of Robert Graves s fictionalized autobiography, Claudius - wry, rueful, always inquisitive - brings to life some of the most scandalous and violent times in history.
