Rich Dad: Inspriring Quotes

Recently, I read the book of Robert Kiyosaki entitled, "Rich Dad Poor Dad." Although this doesn't relate to medical transcription, I still want everyone to know what it means on how to get rich. I wasn't able to finish it, at least not yet. But I kept some notes of the lessons he (Rich dad) taught me.

The quotes I got from his book does not relate to a medical transcriptionist. But in some way, either directly or indirectly, any person such as you can apply this lessons in any circumstances of life.
