Love the book and Kim's great attitude!
Sorry if you're offended by my comments about women, they are general, OK? Kim nails the talk that goes on in a woman's mind and the fears of failure that accompany some of those. It really does take some nerve and stubborn mindset to follow your dreams and adventures in a "Man's World"! She lays things out in simple and accurate language and I am a big fan of her podcasts and interviews. I'm a pretty independent woman with BIG dreams, but it's nice to have a successful woman share some of her insights into how we generally view things. We all need that support! Thanks Kim :-)

Very basic
This might have been a great book if I hadn't read her husband's books first. I learned nothing new from this, I found it to be repetitive and discussing simple concepts that could have been explained in just a few pages. If you are a woman who needs encouragement, who needs someone to tell her that she can take her finances into her own hands, and if you need to be inspired by examples of women who have made it and who started with nothing but ended up very successful, then this book is great. If you are already capable of handling your finances and doing OK but want to do even better, I'd opt for something less basic.

Excellent Read!!
I remember when I first bought Kim's first book Rich Woman when she first published it. I loved reading every page! And her second book is even better! I felt Kim was talking directly to me. I could relate a lot to her and what her stories were about in her book. It definitely put my mind back on track and made me much more focused on seeing my path to accomplish my goals. I read every last page! (And was sad when the book was over.) But now on to my next book that I bought called "The Midas Touch" by Robert Kiyosaki and Donald Trump.You need to buy It's Rising Time!! I thought while reading this book.. "I paid $11 for this book and I really feel I am getting so much out of it. Great investment!"

Love this book!
This is a must-read book for any woman wanting to learn how to be financially independent, as well as a must read for the men who genuinely love and support the women in their lives. Kim is honest, practical and real in her approach here. I’ve bought copies for my sister and daughters. I highly recommend this book!

Ready For A Fresh Perspective On Investing?
I am a huge fan of Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad series. I had listened to Kim's previous (audio)book, Rich Woman: A Book on Investing for Women: Because I Hate Being Told What to Do! . I was inspired by the stories and advice in that book, but It's Rising Time takes things to a whole new level.The basic Rich Dad theory is covered again, but this time the book moves faster. Kim shares her advice and talks candidly about common (and not so common!) stumbling blocks when investing. Another issue that I thought was key here was that she mentioned psychology and how that plays into investing. We try to control risk, but if we can't control ourselves, we can make bad financial decisions based purely on emotion, not facts.Also, each chapter has an inspiring subheading. For example: A Recipe For Raising Capital has the subheading "To rise up to an abundance of opportunities takes...." Each subheading begins with the theme of rising above and beyond, empowering the reader to learn more and make everyday changes in their lives. I feel these are key in driving home the message that investing is really a journey. And it can be a fun one, if we chose to make it so!I'm not usually a highlighter person, but now the pages of this book are covered with highlighter! I recommend It's Rising Time for people who are looking for overall investment strategies, not specific techniques. If you are new to investing, this book is a must read.

Inspiring
I love reading books about how people have succeed and how I can as well. It was a great book that encouraged me along in my new journey. I love her stories and how she tells about her struggles and how she overcame them. I love to learn that others made mistakes and learned from them and then went on to success. It gives me more confidence to try new things. Thanks Kim.

It’s good
It’s a good book overall. But I read her husband book first and it’s a lot of similarities.

INSPIRING!
I'm in awe of the women who made it despite their very humble beginnings. It's because they truly believed they could achieve their dreams.There are a lot of people who will try to discourage you...all these winning ladies totally ignored the negativity, and got on with achieving their dreams.This is a book for all women:mothers,daughters,sisters wife's or girlfriend.Good luck to you all!Thank you Kim.

Inspiring and easy to read
I've really enjoyed reading this and found it inspiring, the premise is similar to 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' but worth reading for the way that she addresses the female reader specifically. I think this is a good book if, like me, you're already familiar with some of the concepts as it's good to get some positive re-enforcement. If you're not familiar with the 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' franchise then it's definitely worth reading. In all of the case studies it's clear that the women have worked hard over a period of time to get where they are so I found it inspiring without pedalling a Get Rich Quick ethos.

Excellent book.
This is an excellent book that gives you the bit of oomph needed to actually Do It!! Lots of really good information and specially written by a woman for women so there is none of that manly stuff that is rather irrelevant.

Excellent, empowering book for women (and men)
I love the Kiyosaki's style of writing - honest, clear, open and real! They reveal their own learning lessons and mistakes which makes their writing authentic and interesting and it creates a rapport with the reader who is also learning!I really enjoyed reading this book and read it in a matter of hours. I would thoroughly recommend it! Kim is great and we need to see her more!!
