Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s recent statements on inflation have triggered worry among the known writer Robert Kiyosaki.
Powell’s acknowledgment that achieving a 2% inflation target might pose challenges highlights a shift in the approach toward reaching that goal compared to previous targets.
However, Powell moved slightly to 2.5% in February, stressing the unpredictable route to achieve price stability.
Kiyosaki engages in some projections of the economic future, commenting that it would affect families in America and the international financial stability. He also blames fiat currencies as the main cause for the steep depreciation of the dollar’s purchasing power since the formation of the Federal Reserve in 1913.
The US national debt is approaching $34 trillion. Kiyosaki suggests investing in gold, silver, and Bitcoin to guard against rising inflation.
Kiyosaki’s suggestion corresponds with his doubt about the conventional financial systems, for he does not consider saving to be the sole option for wealth creation.
