Robert Kiyosaki combined entrepreneurship and bitcoin investing in two messages on X last week, tying advisory networks, inflation concerns, and hard assets into a broader wealth-preservation strategy. In a May 16 post, the Rich Dad Poor Dad author described lifelong learning and trusted advisers as key assets for entrepreneurs. Days earlier, on May 13, he reinforced his bullish stance on bitcoin while warning about inflation, rising debt, and weakening fiat currencies. The renowned author explained:
“2 reasons why inflation will steal your money.”
He tied the warning to two economic pressures he believes could accelerate inflation and weaken purchasing power. The acclaimed author pointed to conflict involving Iran as a factor that could keep oil prices elevated and push costs higher across the economy. He also warned that rising national debt may drive governments toward additional money printing, further eroding fiat currencies and cash savings.
The message reflected themes that have shaped Kiyosaki’s market outlook for years. He has consistently argued that debt expansion and loose monetary policy weaken traditional currencies over time. That thesis has supported his preference for bitcoin, gold, and silver, which he frequently describes as protection against inflation, currency devaluation, and broader financial instability.
His May 16 message on X focused on the people entrepreneurs surround themselves with. Kiyosaki described lifelong learning and trusted advisory teams as critical assets. He listed bookkeepers, accountants, attorneys, marketing managers, product developers, bankers, gold and silver brokers, and stock and bond brokers as advisers business owners should consider.
In the earlier May 13 warning, Kiyosaki also urged investors to consider hard assets over fiat currencies:
“Invest in real money, gold, silver, bitcoin, and ethereum, real money that will go up in purchasing power while fake money steals the wealth of those who do nothing. Please do not say ‘I can’t afford real money.’”
That message also fits Kiyosaki’s broader bullish outlook on hard assets. The investor has projected BTC at $250,000, gold at $27,000, and silver as high as $200 in separate forecasts while warning about a major market crash. Rather than framing bitcoin as a short-term trade, the longtime BTC advocate presented it as protection against inflation and weakening fiat currencies.
