The writer Robert Kiyosaki, famous for the work 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad', told his followers that he already has a lot of bitcoin in his portfolio, and that he is now in search of the best current investment, which in his opinion, is silver.
According to him, silver is the best investment simply because it could experience significant appreciation in the coming months of 2025. As for gold, considered the main store of value, he understands that the metal has already reached its highs and may be overbought.
According to his message to followers on X, the news is the best for those who do not have much money, since he believes that silver could double in price by 2025.
"GOOD NEWS for those who do not have much money. I am buying more Silver Eagles today. The good news is that silver is the biggest investment deal today.
Gold has already reached historical highs. I have quite a bit of Bitcoin. And silver is still 50% below its all-time high… today, around $35. I believe silver will double to $70 this year."
Upon sharing his new thought, he also stated that people's profits come from the right purchases made at the right time, and not from sales. Thus, he concluded by saying that he became wealthy by buying frequently, and that he does not sell his assets.
"Remember my rich dad's advice… 'Your profit is made when you buy… Not when you sell.' I got rich 'a little bit at a time'… and never selling. Take care."
Is there a sufficient amount of bitcoin to own?
After Robert Kiyosaki's post about 'having enough bitcoin', many followers began to say that his statement was incorrect. This is because there is no sufficient amount of bitcoin, as the more, the better, in the view of the more optimistic and enthusiastic.
However, Kiyosaki has made it clear several times that he practices asset diversification. Therefore, he buys bitcoin, a digital currency he trusts a lot, and also buys gold and silver.
Furthermore, he has stated on several occasions that a store of value should consist of basic and physical items. In this way, food and ammunition for weapons could help in the event of a large-scale global economic crisis, where access to food would be difficult and violence could erupt.
In any case, the price of silver in the market on the XAG/USD pair, according to the LBMA from the UK, remains above $33.00 per unit. Thus, if the quotation skyrockets and doubles, Kiyosaki believes he has given the hint for his followers to make money with an asset he considers important.
