Rich 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.

Key points

  1. Robert Kiyosaki compares holding Bitcoin to buying car insurance against financial trouble.
  2. Kiyosaki argues Bitcoin, gold and silver cannot be printed by governments or central banks.
  3. Bitcoin has a fixed 21 million coin supply that limits its total issuance.
  4. Kiyosaki frames holding scarce assets as preparation for monetary instability, not a disaster bet.

Why it matters

Kiyosaki is a best-selling personal finance author, and his public framing of Bitcoin as a monetary hedge may influence retail investor perceptions of the asset.
