New warnings about the impending economic crisis are issued by the author of the famous Rich Dad Poor Dad and well known investor, Robert Kiyosaki, estimating that even in these dark times, citizens can minimize the damage. or even profit.
In a series of posts on X, R. Kiyosaki initially points out that war is financially profitable for a few, while society and citizens pay a heavy price. National debt, poverty, homelessness and inflation are the economic cost we all pay for conflicts. And as he clarifies, do not trust the government and the banks, they do not care about your personal wealth.
From Vietnam to modern crises
Kiyosaki served twice in Vietnam, in 1966 and in 1971-72, and lost many friends. Thirty years later he returned to say goodbye to the fallen and find peace with himself. This personal experience led him to see the connection between wars and the economic consequences at home.
As he notes, even those far from the battlefields suffer an economic impact. Conflicts increase inflation, burden national debt and reduce purchasing power. The solution, according to him, is financial education and strategic investments that protect wealth.
Additionally, he emphasizes that geopolitical tensions create new markets and opportunities for those who carefully monitor trends. From energy and fossil fuel companies to markets with stable demand in food and raw materials, war can create “golden opportunities” for investments that hold real value.
The crisis of 2026 and the investment opportunities
In a previous post, Kiyosaki cited predictions of Nostradamus and Edgar Cayce for a global economic crisis in 2026. Despite the uncertainty, he makes it clear that those who are prepared and invest correctly will become richer, while the rest will lose.
His strategy is simple and strict: buy and hold real assets that governments and banks cannot print or manipulate. These include: Real estate, oil, gold, silver, Bitcoin, Ethereum, food production.
He himself started from zero, bought small assets and held them for years. He never invested in S&P 500 stocks, bonds, ETFs or any product printed by the government. Discipline, strategic thinking and knowledge were his tools for financial independence.
Additionally, R. Kiyosaki warns that traditional investors who rely on banks and stocks will be at a disadvantage when markets experience shocks. On the contrary, those who direct their money into real, measurable assets will have stable ground for wealth growth.
War as a lesson in economic resilience
He also urges us to see war not only as a tragedy, but also as a learning opportunity. In times of crisis, the right investments can increase wealth, while inactivity leads to losses.
The greatest asset is the individual himself, knowledge and the ability to make the right decisions. In times of war or economic turmoil, our choices determine the difference between poverty and economic resilience.
Investors who understand trends and prepare with real assets will be the winners. On the contrary, the strategy “buy and hold whatever they tell me” leads most to major losses.
Practical steps to protect your wealth
1) Invest in assets that retain value, gold, silver, Bitcoin, Ethereum, real estate, oil, food production.
2) Do not trust the government and the banks, whatever they can print is not worthy of your trust.
3) Acquire financial knowledge, it is the most valuable asset you have.
4) Buy small and hold long term, discipline and patience are critical for wealth.
5) Prepare for crises, take advantage of every opportunity for investments in real assets that retain value.
6) Monitor trends in raw materials, energy and food, these markets are more resilient to geopolitical crises.
Robert Kiyosaki reminds that we cannot control war or global crises, but we can control our choices and our education. Crisis and geopolitical turbulence can become an opportunity for those who are financially prepared.
War is not good for anyone, but for those who understand investments and hold real assets, every crisis can mean wealth and resilience. In the economy, as in life, knowledge and strategy are the most valuable weapons.
Do not trust the government and the banks, invest in real assets and become financially resilient.
