Today’s guest says that small investors can still take advantage of some of the largest opportunities today. Marin Katusa, publisher of the Katusa Report says, “After starting as a calculus teacher and being known as the tutor for the rich, I looked around and asked myself, ‘what am I doing wrong here?’” Being in Vancouver, and the resource sector, low and behold 20 years later, here I am after building Canada’s third-largest copper mine. In the resources sector, there are some very smart people, but who are afraid to take risks. But if you have the right financial education, you diminish the risk. Host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Marin Katusa discuss the importance of just getting started when it comes to investing and how everyone smarts small before moving to the B-I side of the CASHFLOW Quadrant.

​​Our economic system is “Creditism.” The economy has become addicted to credit growth, and only government borrowing can make it continue to grow. The private sector just doesn’t have enough income to keep credit growing.  Today’s guest says if credit doesn’t grow by at least 2% each year, the country goes into a recession. Richard Duncan is the author of the new book “The Money Revolution: How to Finance the Next American Century” and he says, “In 2008, when the bubble did blow up, I expected it to blow up, but I expected a depression. But what we saw instead was the U.S. government borrowed trillions of dollars, and pumped it into the economy, and the Fed created 3.6 trillion dollars during the first 3 rounds of QE and bought those government bonds, financing the government debt. If the Fed had not bought the government bonds, created all that money, the government couldn't have borrowed so much money without pushing interest rates to an extremely high level. All that government borrowing would have pushed interest rates up and the high-interest rates would have crushed the economy. This combination of trillions of dollars of government borrowing and spending, and money printing to finance the government spending, they re-inflated the bubble. It’s been an exact replay of that in 2020 and 2021.” Hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guest Richard Duncan discuss how the Fed is shifting to “Quantitative Tightening,” and the solution to solve this economic crisis.

On September 17, 2019, the repo market crashed overnight, and almost two years ago in February 2020, the world became aware of the spread of COVID-19. Today’s guest says that he knew that from the beginning that something wasn’t adding up and that’s when he began his quest to find answers. Chris Martenson is an economic researcher and futurist specializing in energy and resource depletion, and co-founder of PeakProsperity.com says, “The repo market was blowing up and COVID was the best thing that could have happened to a Federal Reserve that needed a reason to print trillions.” Host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Chris Martenson discuss Chris’ research into the COVID-19 pandemic, and how answers can be found if we “follow the money.”

Robert Kiyosaki has been warning for months that the U.S. will experience one of the biggest crashes in history. Today’s guest warns that all of the money printing during COVID has created too much money and now we’re “dealing with the consequences and it’s just getting started.” Peter Schiff, is the Chief Economist & Global Strategist of Euro Pacific Capital a Registered Investment Adviser, and a full-service broker/dealer. He says, “The Fed has been operating its monetary policy while looking in the rearview mirror, and they are ignoring the road ahead.” Schiff predicts, “They’re going to raise rates enough to crush the economy, but not enough to slow inflation.” Hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guest Peter Schiff discuss how the government created the biggest economic problem and what you can do about it.

Robert Kiyosaki’s rich dad would often tell him that learning how to sell is the most important characteristic of an entrepreneur. Today’s guest explains what it takes to become a top negotiator to improve your ability to sell. Chris Voss, CEO & Founder of The Black Swan Group and author of “Never Split the Difference: Negotiating as if your life depends on it” says, “A tiny shift from yes to no is monstrous.” This one shift is the most difficult shift to make because we’ve been hardwired to go for the answer yes. Hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guest Chris Voss discuss his background, what mindset shift is required to be successful, and how to become a top negotiator.

Consumers across the U.S. are feeling the effects of inflation through home prices, gas prices, and meat prices which have all been rising in recent months. There are several answers as to what all of this means for consumers this year, but two lingering questions are:  what will the Fed do? And will we experience the inflation of the 1970s? Today’s guest gives his opinion on where the U.S. is headed in 2022. Macro-economic expert, and the best-selling author of “The New Great Depression,” Jim Rickards, says, “I would look for disinflation, not inflation, from 6-7% annualized down to 4%," due to incoming rate hikes expected from the Federal Reserve. Additionally, Rickards explains Inflation vs. Disinflation His prediction for $15,000 gold Real thoughts on the Fed Hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guest Jim Rickards discuss the real threats to the economy in 2022 and how you can be prepared.

In his testimony in early December, U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell admitted it is “probably a good time to retire” the Fed’s characterization of inflation as “transitory”—up, until that time, Powell described inflation as temporary. Today’s guest explains what happens when the Fed “takes away the crutches.” Gerald Celente, the Founder/Director of the Trends Research Institute and publisher of the weekly Trends Journal magazine says, “When interest rates go up, the cheap money flow stops, the economy is going to go down, and the equity markets are going to crash.” In this episode, Gerald shares his 2022 Outlook for: Gold, silver, Bitcoin Commercial real estate U.S. economic front China’s dual-circulation policy The rise of the “Metaverse” Host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Gerald Celente discuss what trends you should be watching in 2022 and how current events both locally and globally will affect your investments.

Retirement fund giant, CALPERS, voted in early November to use borrowed money and alternative assets to meet its investment-return target, even after lowering that target just a few months ago. Today’s guests discuss what this means for retirees depending on their pension for their financial future. New York Times reported, “The move by the $495 billion California Public Employees’ Retirement System reflects the dimming prospects for safe publicly traded investments by households and institutions alike and sets a tone for increased risk-taking by pension funds around the country.” Ted Siedle, the co-author of Who Stole My Pension says, “These state and local pensions are refusing to give participants in the fund and taxpayers a prospectus on the fund. The money is all secret.” John MacGregor, Author of the book The Top 10 Reasons the Rich Go Broke and a Certified Financial Planner says, “With this shortfall, we’ve got 10,000 people hitting retirement every single day, these states are heading for a pension crisis.” Host Robert Kiyosaki and guests Ted Siedle and John MacGregor discuss the number one problem facing retirees today, and what you can do about it.
