Robert Kiyosaki, the author of “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” addressed his followers on social media platform X on Dec. 31, thanking them for their trust throughout the year. The book he co-authored with Sharon Lechter in 1997 has seen significant success, surpassing 32 million copies sold and reaching readers in 51 languages across 109 countries. It also held a position on the New York Times Best Seller list for over six years.

In his message, Kiyosaki expressed appreciation, stating:

Happy New Year all of you who follow my (X) or tweets. Thank you for trusting my comments, opinions, and personal points of view. It is going to be an exciting year of challenges and change.

He then discussed a scheduling conflict between attending President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration and delivering a keynote speech at Jay Martin’s Vancouver Resource Investor Conference (VRIC). “My ego wanted to attend Trump’s inauguration. I had my tuxedo ready to go. My heart wanted to teach in Vancouver. My heart won,” he shared.

Kiyosaki has made several bold predictions about the financial markets, particularly regarding bitcoin, over the year. He forecasts that BTC could surge to $350,000 in 2025, advising investors to focus on holding bitcoin directly rather than relying on exchange-traded funds (ETFs), including the popular Blackrock’s bitcoin ETF, the Ishares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT). “I love bitcoin in my own wallet. I would not trust bitcoin in Blackrock’s ETF,” the famous author wrote on Dec. 27.

He recently endorsed the $13 million prediction by Microstrategy’s executive chairman, Michael Saylor, stating: “I think Michael Saylor is a genius. I am following Saylor’s tactical bitcoin investment plan … obviously not to Saylor’s dollar size … yet making myself and my company’s employees richer and jobs much more secure … especially in these treacherous financial times.” Saylor anticipates that by 2045, bitcoin’s value might fluctuate between $3 million in a pessimistic scenario and $49 million in an optimistic one, with a midpoint projection of $13 million.

The acclaimed author frequently warns of a looming global financial crash, highlighting economic downturns in Europe, China, and the U.S. as indicators of an approaching depression. To prepare for this, he recommends investing in assets like bitcoin, gold, and silver, emphasizing their value as protection during economic instability.
