This Money Expert Says ‘Savers Are Losers’ — Is He Right? Experts Weigh In

Dawn Allcot Tue, August 5, 2025 GOBankingRates

Robert Kiyosaki, finance expert and “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” author, has been known for straight talk about the economy. In a recent tweet, he said, “Savers are losers.”

He pointed out that the U.S. Federal Reserve’s way to avoid economic disaster is to print more money. He listed the 1987 market crash, the 1998 long-term capital management (LTCM) crash, the 2019 repo market seizure, the COVID-19 pandemic and the Silicon Valley Bank failure as examples.

“It’s not a new crisis….it’s the same crisis getting bigger,” he wrote. Then, he warned, “Stop saving FAKE $. Start saving real gold, silver, Bitcoin. Protect your wealth. America is the biggest debtor nation in history… because of the FED. The Biggest Crash in history is coming….soon.”

How Much Money Would Your Kid Have at Retirement If You Invested $5 a Month From Birth?

Peter Burns Sun, August 3, 2025 GOBankingRates

It’s obvious that those who start saving early end up with a lot more for retirement. But, what if you started saving for your kid from the moment they were born? Putting a small amount away each month, even as little as $5, would amount to $60 saved per year. By the time they reach full retirement age of 67 (for most), you will have $4,020 saved up. This number isn’t very impressive on its own, but if you take advantage of compound interest, you’ll be looking at a much higher number.

7 Key Signs You’re Wealthier Than You Think

Caitlyn Moorhead Tue, April 29, 2025 GOBankingRates

Controversial but consummately successful podcaster Joe Rogan once said he felt like he’d “made it” financially when he had enough money to eat at a restaurant at night without feeling guilty and stressed about what it cost the following day.

Rogan’s net worth is now estimated at $200 million, which is all the money in the world — unless you’re Elon Musk. That makes Rogan’s $200 million fortune he made bloviating opinions less than 0.05% of Musk’s $391 billion fortune he made buying cars and rocket ships.

With interest rates falling and inflation still creeping up, the value of cash is shrinking. While having some cash on hand is necessary for emergencies, Fidelity’s long-term data shows that cash has historically been the worst-performing asset class, significantly lagging behind stocks and bonds even during volatile market conditions.
