"Rich Dad Poor Dad"
《富爸爸?窮爸爸》

Robert Kiyosaki shares the two influences on his life growing up, one financially unsuccessful and the other fiscally responsible. One of the core themes he came to learn and advocate was that "the poor and middle class work for money" while "the rich have money work for them." Throughout the book, Kiyosaki seeks to teach a level of financial literacy often ignored in formal education.
羅伯特?清崎分享了對他成長影響很大的兩件事情：一是經濟上的失敗，二是財政上的盡責。他慢慢學習到并且開始倡導的一個核心觀點是，“窮人和中產階級為錢工作”，但“富人讓錢為他們工作。”縱觀全書，清崎試圖傳授給大家一定的理財素養，這是在正規教育中經常被忽視的。

"The Millionaire Next Door"
《鄰家的百萬富翁》

Doctors Stanley and Danko spent 20 years interviewing members of the elite club whose net worth exceeded $1 million.

"Think and Grow Rich"
《思考致富》

Originally published in 1937, Napoleon Hill's book is old, but not outdated. The messages in it are not exclusively financial, because Hill does not limit wealth to the confines of monetary worth. With stories from the top businessmen of the time, Hill finds that success is derived as much from personal satisfaction as it is from financial flair.
拿破侖?希爾的這本書最早出版于1937年，雖然古舊，卻不過時。書中傳授的信息不完全與金融相關，因為希爾并沒有把財富限制在貨幣價值的范圍內。但希爾從當時頂尖商人的故事中發現，成功不僅來源于個人滿意度，還得自于金融敏銳力。
