“I am going to get richer when the fake economy crashes”, says Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki. Here’s why
In a post shared on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Kiyosaki laid out what he calls “How to get richer as the world economy crashes.”
According to Kiyosaki, the U.S. Federal Reserve’s recent rate cuts and signals of further quantitative easing (QE) are paving the way for massive money printing, which he claims will ultimately lead to hyperinflation.
“The FED just let the world know their plans for the future,” he wrote. “The FED lowered interest rates… signalling QE (quantitative easing) or turning on the fake money printing press… What Larry Lepard calls ‘The Big Print.’”

Kiyosaki believes this economic direction will significantly impact everyday people who are unprepared for rising prices. “This will lead to hyper-inflation… making life very expensive for the unprepared,” he warned.
To hedge against the potential fallout, Kiyosaki continues to recommend buying “real” assets. “My suggestion is the same… buy more real gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum,” he stated.In the same post, he revealed that he recently bought more real silver following the Fed’s latest interest rate cut announcement.
He pointed out that silver was priced at $20 per ounce in 2024, but he believes it could surge significantly in the near future. “Silver is going to the moon, possibly $200 an ounce in 2026,” he said.
“I Am Going to Get Richer When the Fake Economy Crashes”
Kiyosaki acknowledged that he didn’t necessarily “need” more silver but said his purchases are rooted in principle and long-term conviction. “Did I need to buy more silver? NO. I just hate getting screwed by my own government… and I am going to get richer when the fake economy crashes.”
Kiyosaki has long been a vocal advocate for assets like precious metals and cryptocurrencies, especially during times of economic and geopolitical uncertainty. His recent post echoes similar themes he’s touched upon over the years — warning about unsustainable government debt, inflation risks, and vulnerabilities in fiat-based financial systems.
While opinions on the market outlook remain diverse, Kiyosaki’s latest commentary adds to a growing chorus of voices urging caution and promoting diversification through tangible and decentralised assets.
