Bitcoin: The Millionaire’s Game?

Oh, the vulgarity of rising prices! Bitcoin, that most digital of speculations, has dared to breach certain “key price points,” prompting the sage – and undeniably stylish – Robert Kiyosaki to reveal his purchasing whims. One detects a hint of theatrical timing, wouldn’t you agree? It seems even fortunes require a soupçon of drama.

Mr. Kiyosaki’s Bitcoin Fancies—And When to Cease Them

The author of “Rich Dad Poor Dad”—a title I suspect has funded more holidays than actual financial independence—has, with characteristic fanfare, declared the precise moment he will deign to acquire more of this digital bauble and, crucially, when he shall abstain. His book, a perennial bestseller, apparently continues to assist the masses in rethinking money, though one wonders if they are truly *listening*. 🙄

When Bitcoin flirted with the rather immodest sum of $117,000, Mr. Kiyosaki, via that modern oracle known as X (formerly Twitter, how terribly pedestrian!), proclaimed:

Bitcoin over $117K a coin. Going to buy one more bitcoin asap. It’s never been easier to become rich… even a millionaire. Please study, learn, and find out if bitcoin is your path to becoming a millionaire.

And lo, it exceeded $120,000, reaching a peak of breathtaking—and frankly, rather alarming—proportions. At this juncture, our financial guru announced a temporary cessation of purchases. “Great news for those already possessing the good sense – or luck – to own some,” he declared, rather pointedly, “bad news for those who, for reasons best known to themselves, remained…uncommitted. They own nothing.” How delightfully blunt! 😈

His reasoning? A fear of appearing…greedy. Imagine!

Bitcoin over $120K … I am buying one more coin… I will not buy any more… until I know where the economy is going. As tempting as bitcoin going to $200K to $1 million is… I do not want to be a hog and get slaughtered.

Mr. Kiyosaki, a devoted prophet of prudence—when it suits him—reminded us that excess, like an over-embroidered waistcoat, can be ruinous. He reiterated the time-honored maxim, “pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered,” and confessed to awaiting a “sharp downturn” before resuming his acquisitions. “After the hogs have ceased their caterwauling and are busy blaming Bitcoin for their misfortunes,” he recently observed, “my fellow pigs and I shall purchase more Bitcoin at a bargain.” As of now, it trades at $117,875. A truly fascinating spectacle.

Despite his momentary restraint, he still foresees Bitcoin reaching the dizzying height of $1 million. He advises neophytes to begin with “a satoshi” – a rather modest beginning for such ambitious dreams. He also alluded to Warren Buffett’s considerable cash reserves, implying that even the most legendary investors are patiently awaiting an opportune moment of… chaos. “I suspect he is waiting for the world to crash… Then he will move back in and buy the best assets with cash.” But fear not, for Mr. Kiyosaki remains devoted to his digital treasures: “I love my bitcoins… all of them.” A sentiment, one suspects, echoed by many. Though whether it is love, or merely a highly profitable infatuation, remains a question for the ages. 🤔
