Robert Kiyosaki Says Bitcoin Is 'People's Money'

The author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki, talked about bitcoin while discussing "Why cash is trash in 2023" during his Rich Dad Radio Show podcast published on Wednesday. Rich Dad Poor Dad is a 1997 book co-authored by Kiyosaki and Sharon Lechter. It has been on the New York Times Best Seller List for over six years. More than 32 million copies of the book have been sold in over 51 languages across more than 109 countries.

During the podcast, Kiyosaki called gold, silver, and bitcoin "the hottest subject on the market today," noting that real estate is no longer a hot topic. Emphasizing that the U.S. dollar is "fake money," the famous author said:

I like Bitcoin. I call it people's money. Now I don't know much about Bitcoin, but I'm just glad I bought it at six. That's all I know right now.
