Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki shared on social media platform X on Jan. 4, 2026, a bullish silver outlook, predicting the metal would open at $100 per ounce and surge to all-time highs as momentum accelerates across hard assets.
“I predict: Silver opens tomorrow at $100 and goes to all time highs. What do you think?” the famous author wrote. The post amplified Kiyosaki’s long-standing thesis that silver is poised for a dramatic repricing after years of underperformance.
He has consistently framed the metal as both a monetary hedge and an industrial necessity, often arguing that rising debt levels, currency debasement, and supply constraints could trigger outsized gains once investor sentiment turns decisively bullish. On Dec. 28, 2025, he highlighted silver’s move above $80 and openly questioned whether $200 could be the next major milestone, reinforcing the idea that the market may be entering a powerful breakout phase. “Silver breaks $80 … $200 next?” he wrote.
In another X post shared on Dec. 28, Kiyosaki offered a more detailed reflection on silver’s trajectory and investor behavior. He wrote: “Silver bubble about to burst? I love silver… I bought my first silver in 1965. But is silver bubble about to burst? FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) mania crash is coming.” He added:
I believe silver will go through $100 in 2026… possibly $200 an ounce.
Kiyosaki also revisited a core principle from his Rich Dad teachings, writing: “Your profit is made when you buy… not when you sell. Patience is essential for smart investors.” His comments reflect a strongly bullish long-term view on silver, envisioning triple-digit prices while acknowledging the sharp volatility that often accompanies periods of heightened enthusiasm. Silver’s combination of industrial demand and investment appeal continues to place it alongside gold and bitcoin as investors evaluate alternatives to fiat currencies.
However, market fundamentals suggest that a move to $100 by tomorrow’s open is highly unlikely. As of Jan. 4, 2026, silver spot price stands at approximately $73 per ounce, implying a dramatic 37% overnight increase if the forecast holds. As a result, investors remain cautious about such short-term price targets. Many analysts view the Rich Dad author’s social media posts as indicators of market sentiment rather than technical forecasts, noting that while the long-term bullish case for hard assets remains intact, aggressive near-term predictions can fuel the same fear-of-missing-out behavior Kiyosaki has previously warned against.
