Financial educator Robert Kiyosaki, best known for his book Rich Dad Poor Dad, has once again issued a dire warning about the state of the global economy. His book has sold over 32 million copies, been translated into more than 51 languages, and remained on the New York Times bestsellers list for over six years.

In a post on social media platform X on Feb. 13, Kiyosaki cautioned against expectations of a “soft landing,” urging individuals to prepare for a severe economic downturn. He stated: “Layoffs to accelerate. Trump to eliminate 65,000 jobs. Even oil companies laying off thousands of workers because the economy is contracting. Car companies such as Nissan and Volkswagen laying thousands of workers.” The famous author continued with an even more alarming prediction:

It’s not going to be a soft landing. Stop dreaming. Prepare for a market crash, possible depression, and war.

Kiyosaki emphasized the importance of preparation over blind optimism, warning against government assurances: “Best to ‘prepare’ than to spend your life ‘pretending’ … believing in the tooth fairy.” He stressed:

Best way to prepare for the crash is stop listening to government officials who promise a ‘soft landing.’ Time to get back to real life.

The renowned author has long predicted economic downturns, with some of his forecasts proving inaccurate. In January 2025, he reiterated his belief in a major stock market crash, pinpointing February 2025 as a critical moment. While his past warnings have not always materialized, his latest message serves as a reminder of the uncertainties within the global economy. Whether his grim outlook will come to pass remains uncertain, but his call for preparation has resonated with many who are growing increasingly wary of economic instability.
