Kiyosaki, Trump Go With PGW

by Staff, PW Daily -- Publishers Weekly, 6/29/2006

After announcing plans to co-author a business book and self-publish it, bestselling authors and world renowned entrepreneurs Robert Kiyosaki and Donald Trump have gone public with the fact that Publishers Group West will distribute their upcoming title, Why We Want You to Be Rich: Two Men—One Message.

The book, which is due out in October, will be published by Kiyoaski's company Rich Publishing, under the Rich Press imprint. As part of the deal, PGW will also distribute Rich Woman, another business title from Rich Press by Kiyosaki's wife, Kim Kiyosaki, originally published in May.

The deal will also see PGW distributing two new titles from Rich Press this fall.

A percentage of book sales for Why We Want You to Be Rich, which will focus on the shrinking middle class in America and offer advice on how readers can expand their wealth in the harsh economy, will be donated to groups that support financial literacy.
