Financial guru Robert Kiyosaki recently issued a dire warning, predicting financial ruin for millions as he declared “the end is here.” His dramatic forecast centers on the arrival of hyperinflation within the United States economy.
Known widely as the author of the bestselling personal finance guide “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” Kiyosaki is a businessman and commentator frequently sharing his market views. He often advises on unconventional investment strategies, particularly during times of economic instability.
Kiyosaki specifically cited a recent US government bond auction as evidence for his alarming prediction. He claimed that a lack of buyers forced the Federal Reserve to purchase a significant portion of the debt, interpreting this as proof the economic “party is over” and hyperinflation has struck.
However, this specific interpretation was not supported by official Treasury data. Documents showed the auction received substantial bids far exceeding the amount accepted, with a very small fraction actually allocated to the Federal Reserve’s operational account, contradicting Kiyosaki’s depiction.
Despite his grim outlook, Kiyosaki also offered a contrasting perspective: a market crash presents significant wealth-building opportunities. He highlighted investment in real estate for passive income during downturns and strongly recommended assets like physical gold, silver, and Bitcoin.
