Robert Kiyosaki Warns of Historic Market Crash Already Underway

The commentary, reported by Yahoo Finance, adds to a pattern of increasingly dire financial forecasts the author has made in recent years.

Kiyosaki has built a public profile not only through book sales but through repeated calls for investors to shift away from traditional paper assets such as stocks and bonds. His warnings typically center on what he views as structural weaknesses in the global financial system, including government debt levels and central bank monetary policy.
