Posted Two Rules for Becoming Rich on Social Media
"Save Gold and Silver, and Buy Bitcoin"
Robert Kiyosaki, author of the bestseller "Rich Dad Poor Dad," has emphasized two rules for becoming wealthy.
Recently, Kiyosaki posted on X (formerly Twitter), beginning with the statement, "If you want to become rich, there are two rules of money you must not break." As the first rule, he pointed to Gresham's Law, an economic principle that "bad money drives out good."
He went on to explain, "When applied to currency markets, overvalued currency drives out undervalued currency," stressing that people should focus on acquiring assets such as precious metals or cryptocurrencies instead of hoarding cash.
Kiyosaki has previously stated in "Rich Dad Poor Dad" that "savers are losers." However, he elaborated, "In 2025, poor people are those who work and save for fake money," adding, "Those who save real money are wise."
As his second rule, Kiyosaki mentioned Metcalfe's Law, the principle that the value of a network is proportional to the number of users connected to it. He explained, "McDonald's is a franchise network, but hamburgers are not, which is why they fail. FedEx is a network, but a single person's truck delivering a package is not."
Kiyosaki stated that this principle should be used to decide which cryptocurrency to invest in, emphasizing, "The cryptocurrency with the largest network is the most valuable." He continued, "The reason I invest in Bitcoin is because Bitcoin is a network," adding, "Most cryptocurrencies are not."
Kiyosaki stressed that these two rules are the keys to building his own wealth. He said, "If you want to become rich, follow these two principles," and added, "Didn't Michael Saylor say, 'Only invest in what the rich would buy'?" He concluded, "I don't save US dollars because they violate Gresham's Law," emphasizing, "That's why you should save gold and silver and buy Bitcoin."
