Today, I’m talking to Robert Kiyosaki. I read his hugely influential book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, for the first time back in 1998, and his philosophy–that rich people don’t work for money–seems like it’s never been more true than it is now in today’s economy.
In our conversation, we dig into the biggest challenges like inflation and that national debt that is facing retirees today, why Robert has never invested in the stock market, and what he’s learned over the course of his 25+ year friendship with president-elect Donald Trump.
In this podcast interview, you’ll learn:
- How inflation is making it so much harder for his generation to retire.
- Why Robert built a portfolio focused almost entirely in real estate, precious metals, crypto and other alternative assets.
- The issues that are preventing the U.S. from keeping the national debt under control.
- Why Robert wouldn’t change much of Rich Dad Poor Dad if he was publishing it today.
