My Evening with Robert Kiyosaki

I've been reading the online excerpts from "Conspiracy of the Rich" by Robert Kiyosaki this evening. (Yes, you have to sign up to read the online portion, and it's all in FlashPaper format—sorry.) Pretty interesting reading, and it tends to echo some of the thoughts I've been having lately. Honestly, I feel like Wall Street has taken Main Street to the cleaners, and they've got enough of our "representatives" in their pockets to prevent any meaningful backlash or accountability. It's fantastically frustrating and depressing.

It's interesting that the online updates to the book—which have been coming pretty frequently in the past couple months—are sounding more and more panicked about the actions (or inactions) of the Obama administration and its appointees.

The full book claims to explore the relationship between taxes, debt, and inflation, and then how the relationship between the Federal Reserve and the US Treasury drives the previous three factors. With that foundation in place, it claims to give you the "eight new rules" for money. Hmm. We'll see. It's interesting enough to get me to buy the book at least.

Oh, and see Karl Denninger's excellent "The Market Ticker" for further descriptions of the monetary fraud happening throughout Wall St. and the Federal government.

Kiyosaki is one guy I will never trust.
