A warning has been issued by personal finance author Robert Kiyosaki, stating that numerous individuals continue to struggle financially due to their failure to adhere to what he describes as the “two most crucial laws of money.”
In a recent statement, it was argued by the author of “Rich Dad Poor Dad” that saving in traditional fiat currencies such as the U.S. dollar is becoming outdated, and individuals were encouraged to preserve their wealth in assets like gold, silver, and Bitcoin.
The importance of networks in generating wealth was also highlighted by him, with successful platforms such as FedEx and Bitcoin being compared to smaller businesses and lesser-known cryptocurrencies.
Kiyosaki’s message has reinforced his long-held view that achieving financial success is dependent on informed investing and a clear comprehension of the systemic factors that influence money and value.
Kiyosaki Cites Metcalf’s Law to Highlight Network Value
Metcalf’s Law was also cited by the bestselling author, with emphasis placed on the influence of networks in determining investment value. Established franchise systems such as McDonald’s were compared to independent ventures, and it was pointed out by Kiyosaki that businesses built on network models have been consistently outperforming standalone competitors.
“It is Bitcoin that I invest in due to its nature as a network, unlike most other cryptocurrencies,” Kiyosaki stated. He further made comparisons between well-established delivery networks such as FedEx and individual operators lacking organized distribution infrastructures.
It was emphasized by the financial educator that his investment decisions are guided by these economic principles. He further clarified his reasoning for not retaining U.S. dollars, instead choosing to accumulate gold, silver, and Bitcoin. As stated by Kiyosaki, these assets are believed to adhere to the two fundamental laws he deems crucial for preserving wealth.
Advice from MicroStrategy executive Michael Saylor was referenced by Kiyosaki, who underscored the significance of directing investments toward assets typically acquired by the wealthy.
In a separate post on X, a warning was issued by Kiyosaki regarding what he views as worsening conditions in the U.S. bond market. It was claimed by him that recent bond auctions held by the Federal Reserve faced weak demand, prompting the central bank to buy back its own securities.
“It was the Federal Reserve that conducted a U.S. bond auction, and no buyers appeared,” he remarked, adding that the Fed discreetly purchased $50 billion worth of its own bonds using what he described as “fake money.” The author forecasted significant price spikes in alternative assets, predicting gold could climb to $25,000, silver might reach $70, and Bitcoin could rise within a range of $500,000 to $1 million.
