While gloomy guesses as to the fate of the economy and more particularly the world’s leading stock markets, abound, finance guru and author Robert Kiyosaki’s voice has been most recently prominent.
In a post shared to X, the “Rich Dad Poor Dad” writer made it clear by repeating a warning he first issued in 2013’s follow-up, “Rich Dad’s Prophecy.” Here’s what he said is coming for stocks.

Kiyosaki: BlackRock’s ‘Private Credit Ponzi Scheme’ Will Set off Stock Market Crash
The prediction? The anticipated stock market crash was now at our doorstep. The culprit? BlackRock — more specifically, the multinational investment company’s “private credit Ponzi scheme.”
Although the finance personality didn’t elaborate much further, it’s likely his comments were instigated by recent reports (like Reuters) that BlackRock had limited withdrawals from a flagship debt fund in the wake of a wave of redemption requests — a move which spooked investors as anxieties grow concerning the private credit industry as a whole (and an industry worth approximately $2 trillion).
Pivoting to say that BlackRock’s fall would be swift and damaging to worldwide markets, Kiyosaki suggested that retirement funds belong to baby boomers would be “wiped out” across the globe and that those looking for safe harbor might consider buying precious metals, cryptocurrency and “partnerships in real oil wells.”

Kiyosaki: Investors of Any Budget Can Start Small With Silver as a Wealth Instrument
Kiyosaki closed out his remarks by advocating for the merits of physical silver, particularly what’s referred to in the precious metals investment community as “junk silver” or circulated coins containing a significant amount of silver — making them far more valuable today than their face value.
“I love silver because even in 2026, if you have $10 you can go to a gold and silver dealer and buy $10 worth of junk real silver … and receive a great financial education from the dealer … who wants you as a long term customer,” Kiyosaki wrote, suggesting that it might be worth it to skip a meal or two in favor of modestly bolstering your precious metals portfolio instead.
