I feel that this book had a few good points but I honestly think that it totally undermined the true value of education. Education is very important and is not something to be taken lightly. This book talks a lot about assets vs. liabilities. Education is seen as a liability and that doesn't make sense to me. Without an education I don't know where I would be. I worked hard and and I ultimately reaped the rewards. Success is not something that everyone should leave up to chance. I am very successful and I honestly owe it to the things that I have learned and the experiences that I have had. And when I have children I will teach them that the value of learning far exceeds the value of being rich by chance. So I do not recommend this book because it seems to teach values that are not my cup of tea.
