Robert Kiyosaki, the famous author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, has been known for years as a staunch advocate of Bitcoin (BTC) and gold. He regularly expresses criticism of the US dollar and isn’t afraid to make political statements. But this week, he surprised friends and critics alike with an unexpected statement: There’s a new investment he currently considers even more attractive.
Silver as a New Favorite
In a series of posts on X, Kiyosaki explained that he has particularly strong confidence in silver. His argument is based on two factors: First, he sees a structural deficit in the global market, and second, he points to rapidly growing industrial demand. Silver is indispensable for industries such as solar energy, electric vehicles, medical technology, defense, and water treatment – all markets experiencing rapid growth.
According to Kiyosaki, this makes silver not only scarce but also irreplaceable. And another crucial factor: the price. Compared to other commodities, silver is currently relatively cheap. While gold recently reached a new all-time high of nearly $3,200 per ounce (about 28 grams), silver is still about 34% below its 1980 record high. Despite a nearly 20% increase in the last year, Kiyosaki believes the current silver price is significantly undervalued. “Silver is cheap and indispensable,” says the investor. He sees more upside potential in it than in gold – or even Bitcoin.
Kiyosaki’s price target: $70 per ounce
For 2025, Kiyosaki calls silver the investment to watch. His price forecast is extremely bullish: $70 per ounce. Based on the current price of around $32.50, this represents an expected increase of over 115%. According to Kiyosaki, now is the ideal time for investors to get in – even before the market has fully realized this potential.
