Is it too late to buy silver after a 150%+ run in 2025? Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki answers

In a week in which the price of silver has crossed the $75 per ounce mark, according to the well-known financial author of the book Rich dad, poor dadRobert Kiyosaki has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the burning question: is it too late to buy silver?The author of the best-selling book Rich dad, poor dad posted his views on X, formerly Twitter, addressing growing concerns among retail investors about whether they have missed the rally in the precious metal.

Kiyosaki’s comments come at a time when silver has witnessed a sharp upward trajectory past multi-year highs. The increase has led to renewed interest among investors looking to hedge against inflation and market volatility. Now making headlines and fueling debate in financial circles, Kiyosaki’s entry into the conversation has added a layer of insight to the ongoing discourse.In his post, Kiyosaki directly asked the question: “Is it too late to buy silver?” His response was, “It depends.” He noted that if one believes that silver is already at an all-time high, one may feel that it is too late. Personally, however, he sees this as just the beginning.

According to him, silver in the $70 to $200 range could be a reality by 2026. “There are many reasons why I say $200 silver is possible,” he added, without going into details in the post.

The financial commentator encouraged individuals to conduct their own research and advised them to consult both the pros and cons before making any investment decisions. “I suggest you surf around YouTube, listen to the pros and cons and then make your own decision,” Kiyosaki wrote.

Stressing the importance of self-education, he revealed that he started acquiring silver in 1965 when the price was less than a dollar per ounce, and that he still buys silver even at current levels.

Kiyosaki reiterated that the path to wealth is rooted in independent thinking and learning from mistakes. “Start small and your wealth will be in your head and in your hands,” he said, adding that even mistakes can be educational and make you “richer than someone who just lets people tell them what to do.”

He concluded his post by reminding his followers that the journey of studying and learning from both wins and losses is what truly makes one rich, something he described as “priceless.”

While silver’s recent rally has drawn attention, Kiyosaki’s message underlines the broader philosophy of financial independence and critical thinking.
