Robert Kiyosaki, the renowned author of the popular personal finance book “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” is once again alerting his vast audience about a looming macroeconomic downturn.
Despite this warning, he views a significant market crash as an opportunity for savvy investors.
Kiyosaki predicts that Bitcoin will experience a rise following this anticipated crash.
“CASH is not TRASH in a CRASH”
In a recent update on X, Kiyosaki highlighted billionaire investor Warren Buffett’s substantial cash holdings as an exemplary strategy for navigating economic challenges.
When questioned about Buffett’s decision to sell stocks and retain billions in cash, Kiyosaki remarked: “He is ‘keeping his powder dry,’ meaning he has liquidity available to acquire valuable assets when they become discounted after the market correction.”
The author recently allocated millions into alternative investments after liquidating some of his cash reserves.
Kiyosaki expresses strong confidence that the values of gold, silver, and Bitcoin will soar post-crash.
This follows his announcement in late February where he revealed purchasing another full Bitcoin for $67,000 during a market dip.
Recent Controversy
Kiyosaki’s recent endorsements of Bitcoin have sparked considerable controversy.
In early February 2026, he faced severe criticism on X after making conflicting statements regarding his investment history.
Kiyosaki claimed that he had ceased buying Bitcoin when its price was at $6,000 (a level not reached since 2020) and had stopped acquiring gold when it was priced at $300 (over twenty years ago).
X users were quick to highlight that throughout the latter half of 2025 and January 2026, Kiyosaki had been vocally asserting that he was actively purchasing Bitcoin at prices above $90,000 and even $100,000.
