Everyone knows the name Kiyosaki. It is most associated with Robert Kiyosaki the multi-millionaire and author of the Rich Dad/Poor Dad series. However, most people do not know the power behind him. That power is no other than his wife, Kim Kiyosaki.

Kim entered the business world in a position with a top Honolulu advertising agency and by age 25 she was operating a Honolulu magazine that served the city's business community. It didn't take long for Kim's entrepreneurial spirit to surface and two years later she ventured into her first business: a clothing company with national distribution.

Not long after launching that company, Kim joined Robert Kiyosaki as a partner in a company that taught entrepreneurial business throughout the world. That business grew to support 11 offices in seven countries, presenting business seminars to tens of thousands of attendees.

In 1989 Kim began her real estate investing career with the purchase of a small 2-bedroom, 1 bath rental house in Portland, Oregon. Today Kim’s real estate investment company buys, sells and manages millions of dollars worth of property.

Kim and Robert, who married in 1984, sold their education seminar business in 1994 and 'retired.' In 1997, Kim and Robert – with partner and Rich Dad Poor Dad co-author Sharon Lechter – founded the company that would take the Rich Dad® message and mission of financial literacy – through books, games, and other educational tools – to international recognition and acclaim.
