Rich Dad Poor Dad Author Robert Kiyosaki has told his millions of followers to buy Bitcoin, gold and silver, arguing that the stock market meltdown he predicted years ago is underway

“I warned the biggest stock market crash in history was going to wipe out the financial security of millions of investors,” he said in a post on X. “That stock market crash arrived today.”

Robert Kiyosaki Suggests Investors Turn To “Non-Wall Street” Assets

Analysts and experts have speculated that a recession might be looming. Prediction platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket both put the odds of a 2025 recession at over 60%.

While many experts believe a recession is coming, Kiyosaki is confident the recession has already started. He warned that this recession will “more than likely” also lead to a depression soon.

Kiyosaki warned that older investors, considered “baby boomers,” are most at risk because they no longer have time left to invest for the long term.

Instead of investing in stocks, bonds, mutual funds or ETFs, Kiyosaki told his more than 2.7 million followers on X to invest in “non-Wall Street” assets and “real money” such as gold, silver and Bitcoin.

Investors Brace For Potential Black Monday Repeat

Kiyosaki’s post comes after US President Donald Trump announced a series of trade tariffs. Following what analysts are calling the biggest shift in global trade, financial markets have plummeted, wiping out trillions in investor wealth.

Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial average have already fallen over 1,000 points, while Tokyo’s Nikkei 225 index tumbled 7.8%. Shares in Hong Kong plunged more than 12% as well, marking their worst day in more than 16 years.

The bloodbath seen in the global markets is expected to continue and potentially lead to a repeat of 1987’s “Black Monday,” warned host of CNBC’s “Mad Money” show Jim Cramer.
