Robert Kiyosaki warns that the global economy is heading for a 2026 crash. The author of Rich Dad Poor Dad named silver as one of his best current investments.

The veteran investor framed the coming downturn as an opportunity for prepared buyers. He pointed to silver as a real asset that fiat money cannot replicate.

Kiyosaki has repeated this warning across X (Twitter) in recent months, tying it to his 2002 book Rich Dad’s Prophecy. He argues the “Everything Bubble” he flagged decades ago is finally unwinding.

He blames roughly $39 trillion in US debt and a weak dollar dating to 1974. Fragile baby boomer retirement accounts add another layer of vulnerability.

Past crashes in 1987, 2000, 2008, and 2022 made him richer, he says, because he held real assets. He plans to run the same playbook in 2026.

“In 2026 the global economy is about to crash. That’s good news for those that can see the future. Bad news for the blind,” Kiyosaki stated.

However, mainstream forecasters do not share the Great Depression framing. Most institutions still project moderate global growth in 2026, while flagging sovereign debt and geopolitical tension as downside risks.

Kiyosaki said he began stacking silver in 1965 at 18 years old, when prices traded in cents. He now treats it as both a monetary hedge and a critical industrial metal.

The asset feeds solar panels, electric vehicles, batteries, and artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. Spot silver trades near $85 an ounce after a sharp run-up over the past year.

Kiyosaki has previously floated $200 as a 2026 target. He frames physical silver as a cheap starting point for any new investor.

The fundamentals support parts of his case. The market is running its sixth straight year of structural deficits. Industrial demand now accounts for roughly half of total consumption.

Kiyosaki is not alone. Veteran trader Vijay called silver near $75 to $80 too cheap to ignore. He cited the lowest CME inventory since January 2025.

“Next 6 months, likely to surprise on the Positive side. It is a a scarce commodity (Lowest inventory on the CME since January2025 ) & one of the most hated asset class,” the trader wrote.

Research firm World of Finance and Associates set a $88 to $92 ceiling if macro shocks stay limited, while other precious metals analysts see silver miners as leveraged plays.

Silver: Currently given buy since 72$ for 82$ Target which was hit successfully.

If there is no negative news then we can head towards 88$-92$ max .

Beyond that I am not looking for it .

Kiyosaki’s six-asset survival list for 2026 also includes gold, oil, food production, Bitcoin, and Ethereum. Whether his crash call arrives on schedule will determine how the silver bet looks by year-end.
