Renowned author Robert Kiyosaki, creator of Rich Dad Poor Dad, issued a stark warning about an impending market collapse comparable to the 1929 Great Depression. In his July 28, 2025 tweet, Kiyosaki declared: "We may be on the brink of another 1929 crash and another Great Depression", citing unsustainable U.S. debt levels and rampant money printing as primary catalysts.
Kiyosaki revealed investment legends Warren Buffett and Jim Rogers have exited traditional stocks and bonds for cash and silver, while he personally holds gold, silver, and Bitcoin as core safeguards. He emphasized Bitcoin's role as "digital gold" due to its fixed supply and decentralization, positioning it alongside precious metals for wealth preservation amid economic instability.
In interviews, Kiyosaki detailed global red flags including soaring debt, volatile interest rates, and overconfidence in fragile financial systems. He advised ordinary investors to prioritize asset protection over speculative gains, urging: "Take charge of your own financial safety" through education and diversification into non-traditional stores of value.
