thebalanced.newsRobert Kiyosaki Highlights Silver Investment and Predicts 2026 Global Economic Downturn
Robert Kiyosaki, author of 'Rich Dad Poor Dad,' has highlighted silver as one of his best investments, noting he began buying it in 1965 when prices were low. He predicts a global economic crash in 2026, suggesting this will benefit investors who anticipate such shifts. His comments coincide with India's recent increase in import duties on gold and silver to protect foreign exchange reserves amid global uncertainties and rising commodity prices. Kiyosaki advocates investing in hard assets to navigate potential economic instability.
