Robert Kiyosaki declares the world is in recession, inflation is theft, and fiat money is a trap—urging urgent shifts to bitcoin, gold, and silver.
Facing Recession and Inflation, Robert Kiyosaki Urges Shift From Fiat to Bitcoin and Hard Assets
Robert Kiyosaki, author of the best-selling book Rich Dad Poor Dad, has once again weighed in on the state of the global economy, declaring that the world is already in a recession. His book has been a long-standing bestseller, translated into dozens of languages and influencing millions worldwide with its unconventional lessons on wealth, money, and financial freedom.
Kiyosaki shared on social media platform X on March 28: “Is the world in a recession? I say ‘Yes.’ And I have been doing my best to warn people since I wrote Rich Dad’s Prophecy in 2012.” Emphasizing that it’s not too late to pivot and make changes, he stressed:
The facts are the world is in a recession. The facts are inflation is going up and so is unemployment.
“The most important question is: What are you going to do about this recession? Will this recession make you richer or poorer? The choice is yours and your choice of education can be free,” he explained. “Take care and make this recession the best thing that has ever happened to you. You and only you have that power.”
Reiterating his long-standing position on sound money, Kiyosaki stated: “The rich get richer: For many, many years I have been recommending people not save ‘fake money’ a.k.a. fiat government money. For years, I have recommended saving real gold and silver coins… recently bitcoin.”
Acknowledging that “most people work for and save ‘fake money,’” Kiyosaki noted:
As the prices of gold, silver, and bitcoin go up… the purchasing power of those who work for and save fake money get poorer… via government theft known as ‘inflation.’
Kiyosaki urged his 2.7 million X followers to protect their wealth: “I want you to grow richer… not poorer. Please start working for and saving gold, silver, and bitcoin.”
He called silver the most undervalued of the three investments in the short term: “Silver for the next two months is the best of the three… I believe silver may soon be $70 an ounce this year and $200 in a year or two.”
The renowned author has consistently cautioned against fiat currency, warned of inflation, and predicted economic turmoil. He champions hard assets like gold, silver, and bitcoin as tools for financial independence, and encourages everyone to take control of their education, their wealth, and their future.
