Robert Kiyosaki Sells Bitcoin Amid Market Crash, Invests in Real Estate
Financial author and “Rich Dad Poor Dad” creator Robert Kiyosaki has made a significant move in the volatile cryptocurrency market. In a detailed post on X, Kiyosaki revealed that he recently sold a major chunk of his Bitcoin holdings, liquidating $2.25 million worth of the cryptocurrency. The coins were originally purchased for $6,000 each several years ago, and he received roughly $90,000 after selling.
Kiyosaki explained that he is now using this liquidity to invest in two surgery centers and a billboard business. He anticipates that these new investments will start generating around Rs 22.8 lakh ($27,500) per month in positive cash flow by February next year. He emphasized that this new income will be tax-free and will expand his already substantial portfolio of cash-flow-generating real estate assets.
In his post, the best-selling author stressed that this strategy aligns with what he has taught for decades—using investments to build recurring income rather than solely relying on capital gains. “I practice what I teach,” he wrote, adding that transparency is important, even though financial advisers warned him against announcing such moves publicly.
The timing of Kiyosaki’s sale is particularly noteworthy. Bitcoin recently experienced a sharp drop from its all-time high near $126,000 to around $80,600, a significant correction that has shaken investor sentiment after months of record-breaking optimism. Despite selling, Kiyosaki clarified that he remains “very bullish” on Bitcoin and plans to accumulate more using the cash flow from his new businesses.
Kiyosaki also pointed out that his investment playbook is personal and not a universal model. “I am not saying my plan should be your plan,” he wrote, referencing how different wealthy investors—from Warren Buffett to Donald Trump—follow their own methods. His post concluded with a reflective question to his audience: “What is your get-rich plan?”
Kiyosaki warned that the global economy may be heading into a volatile period and urged people to prepare. However, his core message remained consistent with his long-standing philosophy: build assets that produce steady income and use financial cycles—whether highs or crashes—to reposition wisely.
