Rich Dad Radio Show: In-Your-Face Advice on Investing, Personal Finance, & Starting a Business

The Fed has been printing trillions of dollars, and the amount of debt that has been added is insurmountable. America was already the largest debtor nation in the history of the world and in the last month they have added staggering amounts of debt and they continue to add more and they're printing more money.  Why? Today’s guest, one of the world’s most successful international investors, Jim Rogers, says “There's an election in November in the United States. None of those guys care about you and me or other people or young people like my kids. They care about the election. They want to print and spend and borrow as much money as they can to win the election.” But the U.S. isn’t in this mess alone, countries across the globe are in the same financial crisis.  Is there any good news? Yes!  Listen as host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Jim Rogers discuss what effects the coronavirus is having across the globe, but more importantly, where in the world has the best opportunities for investment.  Learn more about your ad choices.

The Federal Reserve, the United States central bank, has “printed" more than $2 trillion since the global economic crisis began, and when the Fed prints money it makes the price of assets like gold, silver, and Bitcoin go up. As Robert Kiyosaki says, central banks are run by the “controlling elite.” These elites do not like gold because central banks cannot print gold. Equally, central banks do not like Bitcoin and blockchain because what Robert calls people’s money, does not need central banks either. Today, billions of people are trapped in a central banking system owned by the mega-rich and are losing big time because they are saving money. Listen as host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Jeff Wang, the host of www.rocketfuelcrypto.com and part of the avid investment group RocketFuel Team (www.rocketfuel.team), discuss how cryptocurrency is a hedge against the dying dollar and your opportunity to invest outside the central banking system.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Central banks have created a “milkshake” of different currencies and pushed liquidity into the global economy. As of 2016, the US started raising rates while the rest of the world was “mixing” the milkshake. As a result, raising rates acts as a straw that sucks the capital into the United States.  So what is the outlook in the post-coronavirus economy? Brent Johnson, CEO of Santiago Capital, explains the “Dollar Milkshake Theory,” what impact the strong dollar will have on gold and Bitcoin, and why comparisons of currency strength are all relative. In addition, he explains that a strong dollar is good for the U.S., however, the global economy is not meant to support a strong dollar and could mean we will see a “reset” of currency.  Listen as hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guest Brent Johnson discuss what assets will perform in 2020 and how you can prepare for the future.  Website: http://santiagocapital.com Learn more about your ad choices.

“Investing is a plan.” In order for Robert and Kim Kiyosaki to retire young, they had to have a plan, a plan that started with nothing because they had nothing. The plan had an exit, and it also had a time limit. For many, however, the current financial crisis has disrupted the plans of millions of people to retire in the near future.  For the majority of baby boomers they’ve prepared for retirement by relying on a 401(k) and it’s how the majority of the US prepares, including probably you. But guest David Scranton, host of the financial TV Show “The Income Generation,” explains how those who are approaching retirement are in a critical time as they’ve seen their 401(k)s and pensions disappear since the coronavirus.  Listen as hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and David Scranton discuss how now is the time to take action because what worked before, will not work in today’s post-corona economy.  The Income Generation: http://theincomegeneration.com Sound Income Strategies: https://soundincomestrategies.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Do You Have the DNA of a Wartime Leader? A peacetime leader takes the safe route. They follow the rules of: go to school, get a good job. They are worried about being perfect, but accept the bad. And make committee-based decisions. You might even be one. In contrast, wartime leaders bring peace of mind through strength and a sense of security. They are quick to make decisions and can lead during turbulent times.  A lot of people are facing a crisis right now. If you're one of those people, ask yourself: Will this crisis make you stronger, or weaker? Will you rise to the challenge, use your creativity and persistence to overcome hardship? Will you emerge as a wartime leader? In today’s episode, hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki are joined by guest Patrick Bet-David to discuss the difference between a wartime leader and a peacetime leader, and how to spot the person who will emerge from the current crisis as a hero.  Patrick Bet-David Website: https://www.patrickbetdavid.com/ Instagram: @patrickbetdavid Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/patrickbetdavid Learn more about your ad choices.

The Government is managing the economy through government debt and the Fed printing money. There's no better example of why they do this than when the Fed announced it would create limitless amounts of money in March 2020. Had the Government not printed money, the U.S. would have certainly fallen into a depression. The question you should be asking is, "How long can this go on before we spiral into a new depression?" To answer this question, you first must: 1. Understand the forces that drove the global economy and the financial markets before the Coronavirus struck. 2. Understand what the government must do now to prevent an unprecedented destruction of wealth and a new Great Depression. Listen as host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Richard Duncan, author of the international bestseller, "The Dollar Crisis: Causes, Consequences, Cures," discuss how the current financial crisis started long before the coronavirus spread throughout the world and what you can do about it. ***FOR RICHDAD.COM*** Richard Duncan’s website: http://www.richardduncaneconomics.com Use the code: rich to receive a 50% discount off a subscription to Macro Watch.

In today’s new world, there are only two options: increase your financial education and learn to create your own wealth, or become poorer and poorer and rely on the government and the rich to take care of you. We have now experienced a major turning point in the history of mankind. The days of going to school, getting a safe secure job, and investing for the long-term are long gone. We are in a new age—the age of entrepreneurship.  Today, the barrier to entry to entrepreneurship is almost non-existent. But to heed the opportunities available to everyone it requires a brand new mindset—the mindset of an entrepreneur. In fact, mindset most often is the dividing line between those who are successful in life and those who are not.  Listen as hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guest Guy Kawasaki discuss why now—a time of great change—is a time of great opportunities for entrepreneurs in the post-coronavirus economy.  ***FOR RICHDAD.COM*** Guy Kawasaki's Podcast: www.remarkablepeople.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Many public or government pensions—including some of the largest—are not audited annually by independent certified public accountants. In fact, about 60 percent of all corporate pensions in the United States are not audited. Let’s call it another example of the “gross malpractice generally practiced” that pervades pension management. Pensions don’t just implode overnight. There are always warning signs or “red flags” that have been disregarded for decades. "Who Stole My Pension" co-author Ted Siedle, says, “Pension deaths are almost always foreseeable. Likewise, pension deaths are almost always preventable. If not foreseen and prevented, someone was not doing his or her job. However, autopsies almost never follow pension deaths. Indeed, the possibility of a forensic investigation into the causes of a pension death is rarely even discussed. The scope of such an investigation, as well as probable minimal cost, is rarely researched. Listen to hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guests Ted Siedle and U.S. Congressman Jack Bergman explain how there is no reason you should accept anything less than a true and complete audit of your pension to safeguard your retirement savings.

Throughout history, “money” has been many different things. Money has taken the form of seashells, colored beads, feathers, live animals, and large stones. Today, there are three types of modern money. Robert Kiyosaki says they are: 1. God’s money: Gold and silver 2. Government’s money: Dollars, Euros, pesos, etc. 3. People’s money: Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. Most are taught that saving money is smart but the truth is the dollar is worthless because the Fed is has been printing trillions of dollars ultimately make savers the biggest loser of all. So if saving money isn’t smart, what is? Get on your own gold standard, outside of the banks. Always remember gold and silver were here when the Earth was formed, and it will be here when we are all gone.  In this episode, host Robert Kiyosaki and guests Anthony Pompliano and Brien Lundin give listeners an in-depth look into how assets like gold, silver, and cryptocurrency are insurance against a dying dollar. —————————————————————————————————— FOR RICHDAD.COM Brien Lundin: www.goldnewsletter.com/richdad  Anthony Pompliano: www.anthonypompliano.com Learn more about your ad choices.

States with the worst pension fund shortfalls include Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Kentucky, and New Jersey which have less than half of the assets needed to pay promised benefits and another 17 states have less than two-thirds. The extent to which public pensions are underfunded has been obscured by governmental accounting rules, which allow pensions to eliminate their underfunding, no matter how large, simply by investing in risky assets. In fact, investing in riskier assets may allow a pension to raise investment assumptions, but it also increases the probability that existing underfunding will increase.   It’s anyone’s guess what will happen if and when a state pension in the United States runs out of money, but it’s indisputable that the amount of money that will be needed to bail out a single failed U.S. state pension will be in the tens of billions. All public pension stakeholders—American taxpayers and pensioners—need to get educated fast as to the causes of coming pension collapses and learn what they can do about it now.  Listen as hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and their guests Ted Siedle and Chris Tobe discuss how what’s happening in Kentucky can happen anywhere in the United States.  Learn more about your ad choices.
