Quick highlights
- Robert Kiyosaki (author of Rich Dad Poor Dad) says the “biggest crash in world history” will happen in 2025.
- He urges people to move away from fiat/“printed” money and into real assets, especially silver and Ethereum.
- Kiyosaki projects huge upside for silver (he’s cited targets like $75/oz) and calls ETH a useful digital store-of-value.
- His warnings are being widely shared across social and crypto press; analysts both agree and push back, viewing this as a warning, not financial advice.
What happened?
Kiyosaki posted a series of messages reiterating a long-standing prediction: a historic market crash this year that could wipe out retirement savings and hurt savers who hold cash. He recommends shifting into tangible or scarce assets, namely silver and Ethereum, which he calls “real” and “useful” stores of value.
When is this supposed to happen?
Kiyosaki says the crash will occur in 2025 and has been repeating this forecast over recent social posts and interviews. He frames it as the immediate risk for this year.
Where does this matter?
Globally, his warning targets holders of U.S. dollar assets, stocks and traditional retirement portfolios (many articles emphasise potential harm to Baby Boomer retirees). Markets worldwide react to large shifts in sentiment, so the warning is relevant across major economies.
How does he say people should respond?
Kiyosaki’s recommended playbook: reduce holdings in fiat/paper assets and increase exposure to hard assets (silver, gold) and crypto (Ethereum, Bitcoin). He cites industrial demand for silver and the utility of Ethereum (smart contracts/tokenisation) as reasons. He also tells followers to “study pros and cons”, not a how-to portfolio, but a directional call.
Quick context & caution
Kiyosaki is a high-profile commentator whose views have moved markets before. His calls are opinionated and often contrarian. Financial experts and analysts are divided; some echo concerns about fiat and inflation, others warn that timing and blanket asset calls are risky. Treat this as one voice among many and consider professional advice for personal finance choices.
