Renowned financial author Robert Kiyosaki, best known for his global best-seller Rich Dad Poor Dad, has once again reaffirmed his strong belief in Bitcoin as a cornerstone of future wealth and protection against economic collapse. As concerns grow over the state of the global economy, Kiyosaki warns that we are heading toward one of the biggest financial crashes in history—and he believes Bitcoin is the ultimate hedge.
On June 18, Kiyosaki took to social media platform X to share his philosophy on wealth:
“Poor people focus on price. Rich people on quantity,” he wrote.
He elaborated further:
“I don’t care much about the spot price of gold or silver. I care about how many ounces I control. Same with Bitcoin. While I watch Bitcoin’s price, I focus on how many coins I own. I started buying Bitcoin at $6,000… I bought all I could. I wish I had more fake money to buy more Bitcoin.”
Kiyosaki predicts that by 2030, Bitcoin could reach $1 million per coin.
“While price is important,” he noted, “the rich will still be those with the most Bitcoin.”
He challenged his followers:
“How many ounces of gold, silver, and how many Bitcoins do you own?”
His message is consistent: don’t be obsessed with price—focus on ownership and long-term value. In his view, accumulating hard assets like Bitcoin, gold, and silver is the smartest defense against inflation, currency devaluation, and economic instability$BNB
In another post on June 19, Kiyosaki reflected on his 2013 book Rich Dad’s Prophecy, stating:
“I shouldn’t brag, but in 2013 I published ‘Rich Dad’s Prophecy’ predicting the world economy today. It still pisses me off that so many modern-day ‘prophets’ are now claiming they warned of this crisis. My ego aside, the fact remains—we are now facing the biggest crash in history by 2025.”
He also highlighted the rapid rise of artificial intelligence (AI) as a threat to jobs and retirement security:
“Millions are losing their jobs due to AI. Inflation is stealing the retirements of baby boomers.”
Kiyosaki has long criticized fiat currency, especially the U.S. dollar, referring to it as "fake money." He continues to advocate for preparing financially by accumulating real assets and choosing trustworthy financial mentors.
His conclusion is clear: in a collapsing economy, it’s not how much money you have—it’s how much re
al wealth you control.$BTC
