Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki stacks up on gold, silver as bullion prices break all records

Amid a surge in gold prices, which continued their upward climb on Wednesday, reaching a lifetime high of Rs 1,22,780 per 10 grams on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) and surpassing $4,000 an ounce internationally, Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki reiterated his bullish stance on precious metals and digital assets.

“Adding to my gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum stack,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter), questioning, “END of US Dollar?”

He also expressed skepticism toward traditional savings, saying, “Savers of US dollars are losers. Be a winner. Take care.”



The remarks come as gold prices test record territory and market sentiment continues to favor alternative assets. Kiyosaki’s post reignited discussions on the declining purchasing power of fiat currencies and the perceived long-term value of tangible and decentralized stores of wealth.

Responding to Kiyosaki, one user quipped that fiat currency is “the tutorial they forgot to delete,” adding that saving dollars is like holding onto Blockbuster gift cards in the Netflix era. The comment continued: “This isn’t financial advice. It’s a eulogy for the dollar. Buy gold. Buy crypto. Stack assets.”

Kiyosaki, a long-time advocate of hard assets, frequently emphasizes gold, silver, and cryptocurrencies as hedges against inflation and currency devaluation. His latest statement reinforces this stance, reflecting confidence in non-fiat assets amid ongoing global financial shifts.

On the global front, gold surpassed $4,000 per ounce for the first time, fueled by speculation of potential U.S. Federal Reserve rate cuts and a flight to safe-haven assets amid geopolitical turbulence.
