Kiyosaki's Debt Philosophy Unveiled

Robert Kiyosaki shares his unique debt philosophy in an Instagram reel, emphasizing a crucial distinction between assets and liabilities.

He highlights that while many people use debt to acquire liabilities, he strategically utilizes it to invest in assets. Notably, Kiyosaki reveals that his luxury vehicles, including a Ferrari and a Rolls Royce, are fully paid off, categorizing them as liabilities, not assets.

Doubts on Cash Saving and Gold Strategy

In the video, Kiyosaki expresses skepticism about saving cash, pointing to the detachment of the US dollar from the gold standard in 1971. Instead of saving cash, he advocates for storing gold and converting earnings into precious metals. This strategy has contributed to his staggering $1.2 billion debt, a fact he openly acknowledges, stating, "If I go bust, the bank goes bust. Not my problem."

Insights from the "Disruptors" Podcast

During the "Disruptors" podcast, Kiyosaki reaffirms his billion-dollar debt status, explaining that he views debt as money. He distinguishes between good debt and bad debt, crediting good debt for helping him generate wealth, particularly through loans used to acquire income. Moreover, he encourages leveraging debt in investments, especially in real estate.

His unconventional debt philosophy and insights into wealth creation challenge conventional norms, making him a noteworthy figure in the realm of personal finance.
