On: Ask HN: What book do you recommend everyone should read?

I've heard that book isn't very good. It is full of stories that didn't happen and are just Robert's ideas about what makes a rich person rich.

Basically, Robert got rich from telling others how rich people are.

I've read plenty of books about finances that are just mind-numbingly obvious that it is a skip for anyone with common sense. Would you agree RDPD is that kind of book?

If you read it like a parable similar to The Richest Man in Babylon or The Alchemist you can still gather some useful info and refreshers from this book.
