Robert Kiyosaki, the outspoken author of Rich Dad Poor Dad and longtime critic of fiat monetary systems, has reignited debate over the future of global finance with a bold new warning issued via X on June 23.
Labeling the current environment as the “biggest debt bubble in history,” Kiyosaki cautioned that a global monetary collapse may be on the near horizon, and that only those holding tangible, hard assets will avoid being caught flat-footed.
“GLOBAL MONETARY COLLAPSE COMING?” he wrote. “Will you be richer or poorer when the biggest debt bubble in history bursts? I recommend owning gold, silver, and BITCOIN… Biggest losers will be savers of fake fiat money and especially bonds.”
While Kiyosaki has long been critical of fiat currency debasement and central bank interventionism, this most recent statement signals a sharpening of tone. Rather than positioning collapse as a long-tail risk, he now frames it as an imminent systemic event, raising the stakes for passive investors still parked in government paper or low-yielding cash.
Gold and Bitcoin on hold, Silver takes center stage
In a follow-up post later that day, Kiyosaki clarified his tactical allocation:
“Silver is the best investment today… June 2025. Gold and Bitcoin are high and I am waiting for a correction before adding more.”
This shift is notable. While Kiyosaki remains structurally bullish on both gold and Bitcoin (BTC), his current focus on silver suggests a conviction that the market is underpricing its monetary and industrial role.
Silver remains significantly below its inflation-adjusted high of $50, and despite strong fundamentals, including tightening supply and surging demand for industrial applications, it continues to trade with elevated volatility and low institutional positioning.
