Why “A” Students Work for “C” Students – And “B” Students Work for the Government

In this bold and eye-opening book, Robert Kiyosaki challenges one of the most deeply rooted beliefs in our education system: that academic success equals life success. Kiyosaki argues that the traditional school model was designed to produce employees, not entrepreneurs—and that “A Students” are often trained to memorize, follow rules, and fit into a system, rather than question it or change it.

On the other hand, it’s the “C Students”—the dreamers, risk-takers, and outside-the-box thinkers—who often grow up to become the visionaries and innovators of the world. These are the ones who launch businesses, disrupt industries, and hire the “A Students” as employees.

In Why “A” Students Work for “C” Students, Kiyosaki urges parents to look beyond report cards and standardized tests. Instead of obsessing over grades, he encourages families to nurture creativity, passion, and an entrepreneurial mindset. Packed with personal insights, real-world examples, and powerful reframes on intelligence and success, this book is a must-read for parents, educators, and anyone seeking a better path for the next generation.

I like very very much! go to my freedom

Richard

Me llegaron ambos productos, de muy buena calidad, me gustó mucho q volvieron a los billetes en sus 12 denominaciones, lo q si vi q cambio bastante fue el cashflow for kids, ahora es mas sencillo ya que las cantidades solo son por multiplos de 100 entiendo q lo hacen para hacilidad en el calculo con los niños, sin embargo an la antigua version habian triangulos azules q representaban los ingresos ganados cosa q extrañe mucho ya q con ello podia ver la diferencia con los ingresos pasivos….gracias

Greatest game for children. I love teaching them all this good stuff

Johnny Midas

This is not some cheap off-brand board game. It’s as high quality as anything you’d buy from Parker Brothers, and after a few games my 13 year old is understanding financial statements better than I did in college! This should be a required purchase for all parents. Hint: play the kids version first. It is fast, fun, and just as educational.
