Robert Kiyosaki, author of bestselling personal finance book ‘Rich Dad and Poor Dad, For a long time, his investment philosophy has been based on actual assets and consistently dismisses Fiat currency as “fake money.”
In 2025, his favourite assets have had mixed results. Gold and silver remained upward momentum, reaching all-time highs, while Bitcoin (BTC) is facing increasing volatility, primarily sideways or downward trends.
Despite recent market volatility, Kiyosaki continues to commit to the trio, and the author plans to continue to build his own “standards” around his assets to survive what he calls the “doge chainsaw genocide.”
With the first quarter of 2025 behind, Finbold is looking into whether Kiyosaki’s cryptocurrency and product-centric strategy continues this year.
Kiyosaki’s top picks: 202 Bitcoin, Gold, Silver5
Of Robert Kiyosaki’s favorite assets, Bitcoin was the weakest performer ever in 2025. The flagship cryptocurrency has fallen almost 15% since the start of the year, trading at $79,662 at press time.
In contrast, gold continues to shine, setting an all-time high all year round. Precious metals are surged at 20.67% YTD and are currently trading at $3,167.
Meanwhile, Silver is still far from Kyosaki’s long-term goal of $70 per ounce, but has posted a notable performance of $30.09 as of April 10th, up 7%.
With this in mind, the hypothetical $1,000 portfolio, evenly divided into Bitcoin, Gold and Silver at the beginning of the year, is worth around $1,042.22, reflecting a 4.22% profit.
While Bitcoin’s short-term losses are weighted by overall returns, the strength of gold and silver supports Kiyosaki’s long-standing view of hard assets as a hedge against inflation and financial instability.
