Kiyosaki Compares Bitcoin to Insurance Against Monetary Instability
Image: BeInCryptoRich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki identifies as a financial prepper. He compares holding Bitcoin, gold and silver to buying car insurance, as protection against financial trouble rather than a bet on disaster. He argues these assets cannot be printed by governments or central banks, unlike fiat currency. Bitcoin has a fixed 21 million coin supply that supports its scarcity. Kiyosaki has advocated holding these assets as alternatives to fiat-based savings.
