The Wealth Gap Is Turning Into a “Grand Canyon”
Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, has issued another warning about the growing economic divide between the rich and poor. Referring to it as a “Grand Canyon” gap, Kiyosaki emphasized that billions of people are struggling to make ends meet, keep their jobs, and cope with persistent inflation.
He blames traditional financial habits — what he calls “old thinking” — for keeping people trapped in a system that no longer works in today’s volatile global economy.
Old Thinking vs. New Thinking
According to Kiyosaki, the “old thinkers” still follow outdated strategies: pursuing higher education, working longer hours, saving depreciating fiat money, and relying on conventional retirement plans.
In contrast, “new thinkers” embrace innovation, entrepreneurship, and tangible or decentralized assets. They launch startups and save “real” money — gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum — to protect themselves from inflation and the declining purchasing power of traditional currencies.
Bitcoin and Ethereum as Modern Wealth Builders
Kiyosaki drew parallels between early Bitcoin investors and today’s Ethereum buyers, stating that those acquiring ETH at around $4,000 could see gains similar to those who bought Bitcoin when it was at that same level.
He predicts that the rise of digital assets will continue to redefine wealth creation, making decentralized finance and sound money principles the foundation of the future economy.
A Call to Action
Kiyosaki’s message is clear: the world is changing, and those clinging to old systems risk being left behind. The choice, he says, is between traditional financial dependency and the pursuit of financial independence through new-age assets and innovation.
As the wealth gap grows, his warning urges individuals to act now — before the “Grand Canyon” between the rich and poor becomes impossible to cross.
