The guy has never made a cent from anything but MLM and this series of books. The "rich dad" is not a real person, though he still markets it as autobiographical. Much of the specific business advice he gives is 1) provably dumb, 2) unethical, 3) sometimes illegal.

He's built a whole cottage industry around one basic premise- you get rich if you have lots of residual income that doesn't require you to put in proportional hours. If you need a series of 7 books (or even the first one) to teach you that (though I admit the board game is fun on its own merits)... perhaps your not entrepreneur material?
