Kiyosaki Predicts $35,000 Gold by 2035, Explains Why You Need Silver and Bitcoin Too
Gold price broke above $4,300 an ounce on June 15 and kept climbing, reaching $4,362.6 at press time. The metal had been struggling after a brutal pullback from its January all‑time high near $5,600, but the bounce finally came. Bitcoin and Ethereum also surged on the same day, up 4% and 10% respectively, as the broader market found some footing.
Robert Kiyosaki, the author of the 1997 bestseller Rich Dad Poor Dad, wasted no time. He posted on X that gold had “finally” begun its next major move, acknowledged that some investors may have missed the first leg, and then dropped his boldest prediction yet: $35,000 per ounce by 2035.
Then he did what he has done for decades. He told his followers not to be losers, to take some cash (which he called “trash”) and put it into gold, silver, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and oil. The message was the same one he has been repeating for years, but this time the numbers were bigger and the timeline more specific.
I have followed Kiyosaki’s commentary for a long time. He is not a technician since (for example), he does not draw Fibonacci retracements or watch RSI divergences. His analysis is pure macro and philosophical. Whether you agree with him or not, his track record on gold has been impressive, and his latest tweet deserves a serious look.
What Kiyosaki Actually Said
Kiyosaki’s June 15 tweet had three core components.
First, he acknowledged the move that had just happened. Gold price pumped above $4,300, and he said the ascent had only begun. For anyone who missed it, he offered reassurance: do not worry, because the real rally is still ahead.
Second, he gave a specific price target for the first time in years: $35,000 gold by 2035. He even noted that the numbers were “nice,” starting and ending with 35, which made the target feel almost aesthetic. That kind of casual justification is typical Kiyosaki. He does not pretend to have a complex valuation model. He trusts his macro instinct and wants his followers to do the same.
Third, he repeated his core investment framework. Cash loses value over time because central banks print too much of it. Hard assets (gold, silver, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and oil) preserve wealth because their supply is limited or controlled by natural forces. He said he had been following that strategy for years, and he urged his followers to join him.
He ended with a warning: “Don’t be a loser.” That is his signature phrase. It is blunt, emotional, and effective.
Kiyosaki’s Long-Term Belief in Hard Assets
Robert Kiyosaki has been buying gold for decades. He often says he started stacking silver in 1965 when it cost pennies. His conviction in precious metals predates most of his followers by generations.
His macro thesis is simple. The U.S. government spends more than it collects, borrows the difference, and then prints money to pay its bills. That process devalues the currency. Cash savers get punished because the purchasing power of their dollars shrinks every year. The only way to escape that trap is to own assets that cannot be printed.
Kiyosaki calls fiat money “fake money” and U.S. government bonds “the biggest lie”. He believes that the entire system is built on a debt bubble that will eventually burst. When that happens, he expects a flight to real assets.
That is where gold, silver, oil, and Bitcoin come in. Each has a limited supply. Each is difficult to produce. Each has historically held value during periods of currency debasement. Kiyosaki treats them as a unified basket of protection, not as individual speculative trades.
Why Silver and Bitcoin Belong in the Same Basket
Kiyosaki does not rank his assets by preference. He holds all of them. But in his recent commentary, he has emphasized silver in a way that stood out.
In May 2026, he called silver one of the best investments he owns, noting that he had been accumulating it for decades and that it remained one of his strongest performers. That comment came as silver traded near $85 an ounce, after a sharp run‑up over the previous year. He has also floated a $200 per ounce target for silver, though he admitted that call could be wrong.
His Bitcoin commentary is equally aggressive. He has set a $250,000 price target for 2026 and has even suggested that Bitcoin could reach $750,000 following a major market collapse. Ethereum gets less attention from him, but he includes it in his portfolio based partly on Tom Lee’s research that ETH serves as the backbone for stablecoins and real‑world assets.
The common thread is scarcity. Gold and silver are geologically scarce. Bitcoin is mathematically scarce. Ethereum, while more flexible in supply, powers a network that Kiyosaki believes will grow exponentially. All four are positioned against what he sees as unlimited, devaluing fiat money.

His Track Record: Right on Gold, Mixed on Timing
Let me be honest about Kiyosaki’s record. He has been bullish on gold for decades, and gold has gone up significantly. Over the past five years, gold rose roughly 133%. Over the past decade, it gained about 240%. Since the year 2000, gold gained nearly 1,500%. Anyone who followed his gold advice in the long term made money.
But his timing has been inconsistent. In November 2025, he predicted that gold would reach $27,000 by the end of 2026. That forecast was wildly optimistic and did not come close to happening. He also predicted that Bitcoin would hit $100,000 in June 2024, which was off by both timing and magnitude.
Kiyosaki is not a trader. He does not try to call short-term tops and bottoms. His method is to accumulate real assets during periods of weakness and hold them through the cycles. When he tells his followers not to worry about missing a move, he means it. His horizon is measured in years, not weeks.
My Take on the $35,000 Gold Target
I do not think Kiyosaki expects gold to rise in a straight line from $4,300 to $35,000. He knows there will be corrections. Silver just fell 40% in two days earlier this month, and gold had one of its worst single‑day drops since the 1980s. Volatility is part of the deal.
The $35,000 target by 2035 implies an average annual return of roughly 20% from current levels. That is not historically unusual for gold in secular bull markets. From 2001 to 2011, gold rose from roughly $250 to $1,900, which is a compound annual return of about 22%.
What makes Kiyosaki’s target extreme is not the compounding rate. It is the absolute level. $35,000 gold would mean the metal has absorbed a massive share of global financial wealth. That would likely require a true loss of confidence in the U.S. dollar as a reserve currency, combined with a debt crisis or hyperinflation.
Is that possible? Yes. Is it likely within a decade? I am less certain.
What I do believe is that gold is in a long-term uptrend supported by central bank buying, rising sovereign debt, and the accelerating use of blockchain‑based payment systems. Kiyosaki is right to own it. His mistake is not the asset choice. It is the confidence in a specific price and timeline. Markets do not move on schedules.
For a more grounded perspective, J.P. Morgan forecasts gold to average $6,000 by the final quarter of 2026 and rise toward $6,300 by the end of 2027, while Wells Fargo lifted its year‑end 2026 target to $6,100‑$6,300 an ounce. Those targets reflect strong central bank buying and policy uncertainty, but they remain well below Kiyosaki’s long‑range call.
FAQs
He predicts gold will reach $35,000 per ounce by 2035, based on his belief that the U.S. dollar will continue to lose value due to excessive money printing and rising national debt. He made the call in a June 15, 2026 X post after gold broke above $4,300 an ounce.
His long‑term gold calls have been highly profitable, as gold has gained over 130% in the past five years and 240% in the past decade. However, his short‑term timing has often missed, and some of his aggressive price targets (e.g., $27,000 gold by end‑2026) have not materialized.
Yes, a growing number of analysts believe gold could hit $10,000 per ounce over the medium to long term, though reaching this level would require a significant escalation of current trends. Longtime gold bulls like Robert Kiyosaki anticipate the most extreme targets, but even more mainstream voices, such as Rockefeller Global Investment Management’s Doug Moglia and veteran Wall Street analyst Ed Yardeni, have projected gold hitting the $10,000 mark by the end of the decade.
