Gold and silver are not just hitting records, Robert Kiyosaki says they’re revealing a deeper shift in how money, debt, and trust are being repriced.
Speaking with Kitco News at VRIC 2026, the Rich Dad Poor Dad author weighed in as gold trades above $5,000 and silver holds triple digits. Kiyosaki argued that silver’s move reflects structural pressure, not speculation, calling it “the information age’s metal” and the backbone of modern technology as AI demand accelerates. He warned that silver supply is constrained and difficult to expand, adding, “You can’t find it. That’s the big news.”
Kiyosaki also pointed to the significance of gold and silver rising together, saying that historically this alignment signals stress in fiat systems as capital moves toward hard assets. He highlighted silver’s growing strategic importance, noting its role in technology and defense at a time when governments are reassessing critical materials.
Addressing rumors that he sold his silver to buy Bitcoin, Kiyosaki said he has not sold any silver and rejected the idea of trading hard assets for paper money, which he described as “toilet paper.”

Why do you put this clown on your channel? He has predicted the last 10 crashes that never happened. He is just here to sow fear in order to shill his products and services.
I couldn't believe Robert Kiyosaki referred to Trump as his good friend. Epstein files anyone? January 6th. ICE agents beating protestors in Minnesota. Killing of Nicole Good and Alex Pretti. Threats to invade Greenland and economically crush Canada in order to take over that country. Bombing of boats and killing occupants without due process. Baseless prosecution of "enemies". Jailing journalists for doing their jobs, etc, etc, etc. New lies every day. Talk about tone deaf.
