Robert Kiyosaki Discusses Why Gold, Silver, Bitcoin Are Going Higher

The famous author of the best-selling book Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki, has shared his view on why the prices of gold, silver, and bitcoin are rising higher. Noting that silver is cheap right now, Kiyosaki urged investors to buy a silver coin and start getting richer.

Robert Kiyosaki Bullish on Gold, Silver, Bitcoin

The author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki, has shared his thoughts on why the prices of his top three investment picks — gold, silver, and bitcoin — are going up. Rich Dad Poor Dad is a 1997 book co-authored by Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter. It has been on the New York Times Best Seller List for over six years. More than 32 million copies of the book have been sold in over 51 languages across more than 109 countries.

Kiyosaki tweeted a question Tuesday asking why gold, silver, and bitcoin are going higher. He then answered his own question, stating that it is because the poor and middle class in the U.S. are getting poorer and deeper into debt. “Please don’t get poorer,” he stressed, urging investors to buy at least one silver coin that costs only $30 right now to start getting richer.

The famous author previously explained that he expects gold, silver, and bitcoin owners to get richer when the Federal Reserve pivots and prints trillions of “fake” dollars. Noting that the stock market will crash and send the prices of gold and silver higher, he predicted that gold will soar to $3,800 while silver will rise to $75 this year.

“If Fed continues raising interest rates, [the] U.S. dollar will get stronger causing gold, silver & bitcoin prices to go lower. Buy more. When Fed pivots and drops interest rates … you will smile while others cry,” Kiyosaki tweeted in October last year. He has repeatedly said that the Fed’s interest rate hikes will kill the U.S. economy, causing stock, bond, and real estate markets to crash. He urged investors to buy gold, silver, and bitcoin before the Fed pivots.

Kiyosaki Says Silver Is Cheap

While the Rich Dad Poor Dad author has been recommending gold, silver, and bitcoin for quite some time, he singled out silver in his latest tweets as being cheap and affordable, reiterating his earlier statement that silver is the “best investment value today.”

On Wednesday, Kiyosaki reminded his Twitter followers that he has been “saying buy silver for years,” noting that silver is the best investment because it has been a “worse commodity for 50 years.” He added that the gold/silver ratio is usually 1 to 15, which means 1 ounce of gold can buy 15 ounces of silver. However, he pointed out that in January, 1 ounce of gold can buy 80 ounces of silver. “Cheap. Almost 1:100. Silver going up. EVs, solar, [and] greenies love silver. FOMO,” Kiyosaki emphasized.

Having repeatedly recommended bitcoin, he said in December that he is buying more BTC. He also explained that he is a bitcoin investor, not a trader, so he gets excited when the price of BTC plunges. In September, he urged investors to get into crypto now before the biggest economic crash in the world happens.

Last week, the Rich Dad Poor Dad author warned that we are in a global recession with soaring bankruptcies, unemployment, and homelessness. After multiple 75-basis-point rate hikes, the Federal Reserve raised the benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points this week to a range of 4.5% to 4.75%, the highest since 2008.
