Robert Kiyosaki has never been shy about issuing dire financial warnings. But with America's national debt reaching a staggering new milestone, the Rich Dad Poor Dad author is turning up the volume. "$40 TRILLION US NATIONAL [debt] soon!!" Kiyosaki wrote (1) on X. "What are you doing about it?"

America's national debt has now crossed the $40 trillion threshold, according to data from the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Debt to the Penny (2) database. Kiyosaki believes the country's growing debt burden will ultimately punish people who depend heavily on cash. "Remember: Savers of cash are the BIGGEST LOSERS!!!!" he declared.

Still, Kiyosaki's broader concern is easy to understand, especially given how steadily inflation has eroded the dollar's purchasing power over time. According to the Inflation Calculator (5) on the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis website, $100 in 2026 has the same purchasing power as just $11.74 did in 1970.
