Robert Kiyosaki Predicts a Greater Depression, Says Bitcoin and Gold Will Be the Safe Havens

Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad and one of the most outspoken voices in the world of personal finance, has once again raised the alarm.

Robert Kiyosaki, the renowned author of Rich Dad Poor Dad and a prominent voice in personal finance, has expressed his deep concern over the state of the U.S. economy.

In a recent post on X, originally shared on April 18, Kiyosaki paints a bleak picture of a looming financial disaster—what he terms a Greater Depression. However, amidst the doom and gloom, he offers a clear path to potential wealth for those who heed his words.

Economic Chaos: The Storm Is Here

"Makes me sad: In 2025 credit card debt is at all-time highs. U.S. debt is at all-time highs. Unemployment is rising. 401(k)s are losing. Pensions are being stolen. U.S.A may be heading for a GREATER DEPRESSION.

I get sad because as I stated in an earlier X... post... I warned about it coming in my book Rich Dad's Prophecy. This is no longer coming, it's here. This crisis wasn't a random 'Act of God,' but rather something that has been brewing for decades.

And for those who did not listen to my warnings, I am concerned for those who did not. My advice is to buy gold, silver, and Bitcoin. I repeat my advice because in a world of massive distraction and misinformation, people need to hear important advice over and over again.

For those who take action today, when the crash crashes, those who invest in just one Bitcoin, or some gold, or silver ... you may come through this crisis a very rich person. By 2035 Bitcoin will be $750,000, gold will be $10,000 and silver will be $500.

Those who invest in Bitcoin, gold, and silver will be very rich. It will be the easiest money you ever made.

It will be the easiest money you ever made. Don't waste the crash.

Sunday School lesson: "And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us...." How people speak about themselves determines who they become.

Poor people speak poorly about themselves e.g., "I can't afford it" or "I'll wait."

Don't be poor, be prosperous. Take action now, e.g., invest in a few ounces of gold, some silver, or a fraction of one Bitcoin. Then you may come through this crisis a very rich person.

This coming Great Depression will cause millions to be poor ... and a few who take action, may enjoy great wealth and freedom."
