Kim Kiyosaki is truly an independent woman in every sense of the word. At times it may seem that she is in the backlight of her husband and partner Robert Kiyosaki but the truth of the matter is that she is most definitely not. Kim Kiyosaki had a much different path, completely different in fact from Robert Kiyosaki, besides the fact that she has some beginnings in Hawaii as well. To be specific, she began her career, and her path to becoming a self made millionaire, independent from her husband Robert Kiyosaki, in Honolulu.
In Kim Kiyosaki’s early twenties, she was employed by one of Honolulu’s top advertising agencies. This was her first taste, her first encounter with the world which pursuits all that is financially successful; the business world. Although Kim Kiyosaki was employed by a top advertising agency in Honolulu, it proved to be short lived as Kim Kiyosaki’s drive and ambition, even as a young woman, was to fierce, to strong, that it urged her from a comfortable and secure job, into taking a risk at trying to become an entrepreneur and achieve even greater financial freedom.
At the young age of twenty-five, Kim Kiyosaki left the advertising agency and began working for and operating a magazine that was directed towards the business world of Honolulu. Here Kim Kiyosaki really found herself in the middle of a vibrant scene that was inspiring in the ways of only dreaming the grandest dreams, all the while shooting for the moon. Kim Kiyosaki’s experiences at this business magazine was a success for it inspired her to become her own business woman, her own boss and all the wonderful possibilities that being responsible for your own way entitles. Kim Kiyosaki only lasted two years at this magazine because before long, she started up her first business, her first entrepreneurship, and her first real experience of being financially independent in every which way and form.
By the time Kim Kiyosaki was twenty-seven she was the owner and she was operating her very own clothing company out on Honolulu. Kim Kiyosaki’s very first business, her very first entrepreneurship, was extremely ambitious from the get go, as she only had visions of grandeur, and strived towards bigger goals and dreams. Thus, Kim Kiyosaki’s clothing company had national distribution all over the United States of America. It was during this time when Kim Kiyosaki would meet her future husband, partner, and lover, Robert Kiyosaki.
With Kim Kiyosaki’s clothing company up and running, she joined Robert Kiyosaki, Marshall Thurber, and D.C. Cordova in the financial and business seminars called Money and You. These seminars or their financial education business would prove to be highly successful as the company grew to become a multi-national corporation which eleven offices in seven different countries all around this wide world. As an educator, Kim Kiyosaki contributed her personal experiences and furthermore, begun establishing herself as a role model for future successful independent women. Kim Kiyosaki, after all, was the only female partner in the group, which only added to her immense line of credibility.
A few years after Kim Kiyosaki married Robert Kiyosaki, in 1984, Kim Kiyosaki immersed herself for the first time in the incredible, opportune world of real estate. In 1989, Kim Kiyosaki bought her first property with the intentions of making money from it. It was a small two bedroom, one bath apartment in Portland, Oregon. But you have to start small and just start period to get into the motions of establishing yourself as an important, successful, and respected real estate tycoon. Today, from Kim Kiyosaki’s modest, and humble beginnings of a small two bedroom, one bath apartment, Kim Kiyosaki now owns and operates a real estate investment company that deals with buying, selling and managing of the properties which add up to millions of dollars in assets. That is why there is no hold on ambition, and a start is a beginning, even if it is a modest one.
After a quick five years of having many investments, including her real estate empire and her partnership with the education company, in 1994 Kim Kiyosaki and Robert Kiyosaki sold their financial and business education seminar business and formally retired. Their retirement would not last long at all because in 1997 Kim Kiyosaki and Robert Kiyosaki began and founded the Rich Dad Company. With the experiences from the financial and business education seminars that brought them all over the world, Kim Kiyosaki and Robert Kiyosaki both saw and felt the need for them to share their message of financial independence and their own success story in becoming both independently from each other, multi millionaires.
Furthermore, Kim Kiyosaki, with the experiences from her travels and from her personal life, decided that it was more than time now for women all over the world to stand up for their own financial rights and take control of their financial destinies. Even more so, to become financially literate in the ways of finance and in the world of business, in a way that enables women to become highly successful in all and any of their financial endeavors with the goal of being a self made millionaire.
