Why U.S. Bonds Are DOOMED (And What to Do About It)

Rich Dad Radio Show: In-Your-Face Advice on Investing, Personal Finance, & Starting a Business

The U.S. bond market is on the brink, and it’s time to face the truth: the financial advice we’ve been fed for decades might just be a lie. In this episode of the Rich Dad Radio Show, Robert Kiyosaki dives deep into why U.S. bonds are no longer the “safe” investment financial planners claim them to be. Joined by Jay Martin, host of the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference (VRIC), we explore the shift from bonds to gold, silver, and other real assets as nations worldwide reject U.S. treasuries.
This conversation goes beyond money—it’s about how global resource wars, geopolitical power shifts, and a lack of investment in critical commodities are reshaping the economy. Why are countries stockpiling gold instead of buying U.S. debt? What does this mean for the future of your wealth?
Whether you’re new to investing or a seasoned pro, this episode is packed with insights on real money, commodities, and strategies to protect your financial future. Learn why understanding these global dynamics is more critical than ever and how you can turn uncertainty into opportunity.

Please read carefully.
This is not financial advice.
You may be asking, “what does that mean?”
Let me explain…
Do not just do what I, my team, or my guest says. That would be stupid and irresponsible. Take the education, then use your own brain and make your own decisions.
YOU must take responsibility for your future and your success. That is why you are here. Neither I, or my team, or my guests, know your risk levels, prior education, emotional maturity, or how much money you can afford to lose.
We are only telling you what we believe to be smart moves. But you must decide for yourself. There are NEVER guarantees.
Also understand that we are REAL teachers. We practice what we preach. With that in mind we often invest in the very projects that may be mentioned on this show. While it is never our intent, we could possibly profit from others investing in our recommendations.
Take the education we provide but then determine your own actions. If it does not make sense to you, get more education before you invest. We will continue to provide education and there will always be more opportunities.
