Robert Kiyosaki – the famous author of the global bestseller Rich Dad, Poor Dad – recently made a notable statement about Bitcoin investment strategy amid the market heating up day by day. In his usual style, he continues to emphasize the 'classic' lesson in investing: patiently waiting for the market panic to buy instead of chasing the FOMO wave.

"Fat Pigs Live... Greedy Pigs Get Slaughtered"

In a post on platform X on July 11, Kiyosaki wrote:

"Fat pigs live. Greedy pigs get slaughtered. I repeat this lesson because I just bought more Bitcoin at $110,000."

Although this price is high compared to the past, he still believes he is investing strategically – buying when the market is not yet in the craziest phase.

According to Kiyosaki, the market is entering a phase that macro investor Raoul Pal calls the 'Banana Zone' – a phase of supercharged growth, primarily driven by a wave of retail investors rushing in. This is also when the 'pig slaughter' is likely to happen, referring to inexperienced investors selling off in fear after buying at the peak.

Wait for the Panic to 'Stock Up'

Even as an early supporter of Bitcoin, Kiyosaki is not rushing to buy more, but chooses to 'stay still and wait' – that is, to wait for a strong sell-off from the 'greedy pigs' before buying in at a good price.

As a fat pig with enough Bitcoin... I will wait for the upcoming 'pig slaughter.' After the pigs stop squealing, panic selling, and blaming Bitcoin for their losses, I and other fat pigs will buy more Bitcoin when it is on sale.

Profits Lie in the Buying Moment, Not Selling

Kiyosaki's view remains unchanged: real profits are made when you buy – not when you sell.

He always emphasizes the importance of entering trades at the right moment rather than chasing emotions:

  • Don't fear missing out (FOMO)

  • Don't buy because someone is making a profit

  • Don't sell because someone is incurring a loss

Instead, stand firm and wait for the market to 'sell off in fear' – that is when smart investors appear.

Bitcoin: A Financial Hedge for the Future

Kiyosaki has long viewed Bitcoin, along with gold and silver, as safe-haven assets against the weakening of the global financial system. He frequently warns about the risks of the U.S. economy, including:

  • Rising public debt

  • Out-of-control inflation

  • The USD is depreciating

In this context, he encourages people to own intrinsic value assets, especially Bitcoin, to hedge against financial crises.

Conclusion

The message from Robert Kiyosaki is clear and powerful:

Don't be a 'greedy pig' buying at the peak and selling at the bottom. Be patient like the 'fat pig' – wait for the market panic to buy at the best prices.

He not only shares his investment perspective but also emphasizes a life philosophy: Patience, discipline, and alertness are the 'ultimate weapons' of a smart investor.
