Rich Dad Poor Dad By Robert Kiyosaki is a must read for every entrepreneur and investor!

The reason this book is a must read is because this book explains that there is always a different outlook upon life and money; it displays to the reader that the normal societal path to success is not the only way to become financially stable.

Kiyosaki shows readers that he had a rich dad (his friend's father) and a poor dad his biological father). Robert explained that his rich dad did not finish the 8th grade and that his poor dad received his master's degree. What distinguished his rich dad from his poor day is the way the rich dad thought and went about his life financially; his rich dad believed in leveraging and believed there is a way to afford anything you may desire.

This lesson is the greatest of all because as an aspiring entrepreneur you have to think outside of the box and create paths in order to attain your vision.

With society pressuring students to further their education and get internships, entrepreneurs think very differently from this and that's why this book is fantastic!

Rich Dad Poor Dad encourages entrepreneurs to follow their vision and to not allow the average societal path to cause them to not follow their dream.

This book also exhibits the way how business owners think compared to the people who do not own a business. It shows that many individuals who work a typical 9-5 job depend on pensions, 401Ks, and retirement benefits from the company they work for.

These individuals are technically putting their whole future in the hands of a company that they worked for, for many years!

This book teaches that it's okay to be different and do not follow what your teachers, mentors, or parent may want for you; because at the end of the day your future is in your hands and you determine how you would like it to look.

I would like to conclude that investing in a copy of Rich Dad Poor Dad By Robert Kiyosaki is an amazing investment not just for yourself, but also for your future!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
