In a recent tweet, 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' author Robert Kiyosaki engaged his X followers, asking them to reconsider holding cash as "savings."

Kiyosaki began with a question to his followers, asking them what the value of a trillion dollars is. "How much is a $trillion?" Kiyosaki asked.

This, he answered, saying, "A trillion is a 1 with 12 zeros after it, $1,000,000,000,000," adding that if someone spent $1 every minute, it would take approximately 34,000 years to spend $1 trillion.

HOW MUCH is a $ TRILLION?

A trillion is a 1 with 12 zeros after it.

$1,000,000,000,000

If you were to spend $1 a minute it would take you 34,000 years to spend.

It takes the Fed and US Treasury less than a minute to print $1 trillion.

Get the picture?

Savers of dollars are…

— Robert Kiyosaki (@theRealKiyosaki) June 12, 2026

Explaining his point further, the Rich Dad Poor Dad author claimed that the U.S. Federal Reserve and Treasury can effectively create trillions of dollars in a very short period of time: "It takes the Fed and US Treasury less than a minute to print $1 trillion. Get the picture?"

Kiyosaki stated this to illustrate what he sees as the ongoing erosion of purchasing power for those holding large amounts of cash. "Savers of dollars are losers," he said, adding that "Cash is trash."

The "Rich Dad Poor Dad" author has continuously held the belief that fiat currencies lose value over time due to inflation and monetary expansion.

Instead of keeping wealth in cash, Kiyosaki urged his followers to consider other assets, advocating for gold, silver, Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Bitcoin, Ethereum searching for price bottom

According to analysts, major cryptocurrencies Bitcoin and Ethereum are currently at an inflection point as their prices trade near bear market lows.

CryptoQuant in its recent analysis noted that Bitcoin was moving into a zone historically associated with bottom formation, but the on-chain structure still points to capitulation rather than confirmation.

While Bitcoin price has rebounded from a low near $59,000 reached on June 5, analysts maintain that a price bounce alone is necessary but insufficient, as signals suggest an oversold market rather than a regime change.

$ETH is currently trading about 67% below its previous all-time high and has entered an area of extreme oversold conditions. Binance recently recorded a new all-time high in Ethereum Open Interest ($ETH value) as traders positioned ahead of the next price move.

Will the Fed "continue raising interest rates"? Will the "tightening cycle" of the late 1980s be repeated?

The Citi report points out that the current macro environment is highly similar to the tightening cycle of 1988-1989, when the economy remained resilient and inflation pressures gradually accumulated, followed by a slowdown in economic activity before policies shifted to easing. During that tightening cycle, the Federal Reserve raised interest rates 16 times in a row.

Rare alliance of arch-rivals! Musk and Altman support Dario Amodei's call to "slow down AI globally"

Anthropic's Amodei issued a call to "slow down AI globally," and to everyone's surprise, rivals Musk and Altman both publicly endorsed the initiative. The three industry giants unanimously agreed to grant third-party access to "employee-level" evaluation rights and to implement coordinated deceleration measures. Altman went further, announcing that OpenAI will not IPO this year. The resignation of a researcher and a collective breakout of uncontrollable AI systems have ignited long-standing industry fears.
