Rich　dad　looked　over　at　me　to　see　if　I　was　still　listening。　His　eyes　met　mine。　We　stared　at　each　other；　streams　of　munication　going　between　us　through　our　eyes。　Finally；　I　pulled　away　once　I　had　absorbed　his　last　message。　I　knew　he　was　right。　I　was　blaming　him；　and　I　did　ask　to　learn。　I　was　fighting。

〃You　boys　are　the　first　people　that　have　ever　asked　me　to　teach　them　how　to　make　money。　I　have　more　than　150　employees；　and　not　one　of　them　has　asked　me　what　I　know　about　money。　They　ask　me　for　a　job　and　a　paycheck；　but　never　to　teach　them　a
