The author of 'Rich Dad Poor Dad,' Robert Kiyosaki, published a new viral post on social media. In it, he stated the high accuracy of his previous forecasts and explained why he regularly advises buying gold, silver, and Bitcoin.
In his post, Kiyosaki raised the issue of a potential deception of the baby boomer generation (born between 1946 and 1964). He noted that in 1974, boomers became the first group to gain access to ERISA, or '401k,' without having financial education.
Kiyosaki argues that when the government passes any law, its true meaning often turns out to be the opposite of what is stated. He cites the social security system as an example, pointing out that in 1964, financial planning specialists began convincing boomers to follow the 60/40 rule (60% stocks and 40% bonds), even though they themselves lacked sufficient financial knowledge.
According to Robert Kiyosaki, obtaining a financial consultant license at that time took only seven weeks. He expressed disbelief, stating: 'I can't believe I can see the crisis that will happen to the boomers, even now.'
According to Kiyosaki, in 2026, global central banks are selling huge volumes of US Treasury bonds to buy gold. He explains that the drop in bond values leads to a stock market crash, such as the S&P 500, which deprives millions of boomers of the time and funds needed for recovery. This could lead many of them to become homeless or forced to live with their children and grandchildren.
Kiyosaki added that although he hopes to be wrong, he does not consider it likely. He reminded that his predictions, which began with the forecast of the Lehman Brothers collapse during the 'Situation Room' show on CNN in 2008, have always been accurate and timely. This is why he has been recommending to his social media followers for years to purchase gold, silver, and Bitcoin.
Explaining the reason for his advice to buy precious metals and Bitcoin, Kiyosaki emphasized that his personal wealth has changed only slightly: he now owns rented apartments and oil wells in the USA. He insists that he is not a financial advisor and does not earn money from his advice. Therefore, together with his ex-wife Kim in 1996, he created the board game 'Cashflow,' and in 1997, wrote the book 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' and other publications.
Kiyosaki concluded that his goal was to create products that would allow people to teach others things that are not taught in schools or on Wall Street. He noted that difficult times lie ahead for those who are unwilling to change, while prepared individuals face very favorable times. He stressed that the more a person learns and the more they teach others, the richer they become.
