What a bizarre article. Who cares if the author is now an old annoying egotistical crackpot. Lots of people don't age well but that has nothing to do with their past works.<p>Rich Dad Poor Dad changed many lives, including mine and many of my friends, for the better. It sold 32 million copies in more than 51 languages across more than 109 countries, been on the New York Times bestsellers list for over six years. That doesn't happen unless it has valuable ideas.<p>It seems like a disservice to the current generation to dismiss this book. That is unless the current generation is so financially smart that the ideas now seem pedestrian. But I see no indication that is true.
