In a post on X on Friday, Robert Kiyosaki framed the current financial climate as a “CRASH ACCELERATES” scenario. He argued that money is leaving certain corners of the finance sector, forcing investors to decide what to do next. Kiyosaki also cited Jim Rickards, who declared that the U.S. is in a “New Depression.” Rather than fearing the turmoil, Kiyosaki said he intends to use it as an opportunity to build wealth.

### Investor Redemptions Signal a Growing Crisis

Kiyosaki’s post tied his alarm to what he described as panic inside private credit funds, where clients are pulling their cash. He also pointed to stress at big banks and other recognizable institutions. He boiled this dynamic down to a bank-run mindset: cash doesn’t disappear, it simply relocates. According to Kiyosaki, the key is understanding where capital is flowing and paying close attention to the right sources.

### Kiyosaki’s Investment Strategy Amid Turmoil

In Friday’s post, Kiyosaki shared that his own playbook includes adding exposure to oil, silver, gold, Bitcoin, and Ethereum as the market shakeout continues. He contrasted what he called “smart money” positioning itself for gains with “stupid money” fleeing in panic. His warning to readers was clear: don’t act like “the proverbial chicken with its head chopped off.”

Last year, in a similar post, Kiyosaki praised an executive order that, in his view, treats investors like adults. He credited his friend Andy Schectman for giving him a “heads up” about the move. Kiyosaki added that this policy shift increases the value of his existing positions in gold, silver, and Bitcoin.

### Expanding Retirement Account Options

Kiyosaki’s endorsement of alternative assets within a retirement-account structure aligns with this allocation strategy. He has argued that the executive order can widen the investment menu for 401(k) savers beyond standard funds. In his telling, this opens a path for “smarter” and “more sophisticated investors” to consider areas like real estate, private equity and debt, crypto, and precious metals — all while keeping the tax advantages of a traditional 401(k).
