"Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!" by Robert T. Kiyosaki

This month's special book recommendation comes from our co-founder Alicja, who has a keen eye for timeless financial wisdom. "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert T. Kiyosaki is a classic that remains incredibly relevant today. It delves into the financial and money mindset that is crucial for entrepreneurs and anyone aiming to achieve financial independence.

Kiyosaki's book contrasts the financial philosophies of his two "dads" – his real father, who was highly educated but financially struggling, and his best friend's father, who was financially successful despite lacking formal education. Reading "Rich Dad Poor Dad" offers practical insights and challenges conventional thinking about money. It's a must-read for anyone looking to reshape their financial future and adopt a mindset geared toward wealth creation. Read this book and discover the financial principles that can set you on the path to success.

Never Sit Still - We Never Sit Still

This month, we’re happy to highlight an awesome showreel by the Australian animation studio Never Sit Still, titled "We Never Sit Still." The "Anti-Showreel," as they call it, is a collection of past projects but also a dynamic video that captures the essence of their animation process, ethos, and approach to each project. Created entirely in-house, it showcases their strengths across various disciplines, providing a comprehensive and authentic representation of their work.

What sets this showreel apart is its focus on the creative process and principles guiding their work, offering potential clients a deeper understanding of their approach. It highlights their commitment to innovation, quality, and creativity, setting them apart from the competition.

We highly recommend watching the "anti-showreel." It’s a fresh take on the traditional showreel, designed to stay relevant and engaging in a fast-paced industry.

Summer Office of Co-Founders of Plumcat

Since the start of Plumcat, we've been working remotely, setting up office spaces all over the world. This summer, Alicja and Dawid found themselves in the most amazing office yet. It's beautifully decorated with numerous plants, creative books, and framed illustrations. The highlight? A huge wall covered in empty boxes of the best chocolates from around the world—perfect for chocolate lovers like them!
