Summary

For the first time ever, the #1 New York Times bestsel-l-ing authors reveal how to actually speed up and max----imize the return on invest--ments to achieve total fin---ancial independence. Most people think that simply getting a modest return on one's investments is going to take care of them forever, right through their golden years of retirement. But for lots of invest----ors, waiting-and hoping-for a 10% return on their stocks, bonds, and mutual funds is turning out to be a long and perilous wait. In this startling new book, Robert Kiyosaki shows how one can velocitize their money in such a way that they can quickly achieve financial wealth with extraordinary returns and amazing growth.
