How the Rich Get Tax-Free Cash Without Selling Anything
ListenedWhen the poor need money, they sell. When the rich need money, they do something completely different. Here's what YOU were never taught. Most people were trained to liquidate. Need cash? Sell the gold. Sell the stock. Sell the property. Robert Kiyosaki explains why that one habit costs you twice: you lose the asset's protection, and you may hand the government a piece of the gain. Then he shows why the rich borrow instead, why a loan is not taxable income, and the rules that separate the investor who keeps his assets from the one who loses them anyway. In This Episode: ● Why selling your gold or stocks for cash can cost you twice ● How the rich borrow against their assets instead of selling them ● Why borrowed money is not taxed as income ● How a cash-out refinance lets you keep a rental property and get your money back ● Why a home equity loan (HELOC) is not the same as borrowing against a rental ● What a margin call is, and how lenders decide when to send one ● The 25% loan-to-value rule for borrowing…
How Rich Investors Find Opportunities Others Miss
ListenedHow do the rich find investment opportunities that most people overlook? According to Robert Kiyosaki, the difference isn't luck. It's financial education, understanding cash flow, knowing how to evaluate risk, and surrounding yourself with people who recognize opportunities others don't. In this episode of The Rich Dad Radio Show, Robert Kiyosaki and Kim Kiyosaki welcome stock market expert Andy Tanner and resource investor Marin Katusa to explore how experienced investors identify opportunities in real estate, stocks, natural resources, and emerging investment markets. While most people focus on market headlines, stock prices, and conventional financial advice, the Rich Dad approach asks a different set of questions: Where is the value? How does the asset generate cash flow? What are the risks? And what does the average investor fail to understand? Andy Tanner explains why he evaluates stocks the same way a business owner evaluates a company. Rather than buying a stock simply because its price might rise,…
The 5 Money Moves YOU MUST Make Right Now
ListenedAs markets plunged, Robert Kiyosaki and Kim were closing on a 300-unit apartment building in Tulsa for $17 million—while TV experts urged viewers to stay the course. In this episode, Kiyosaki uses that contrast to lay out five money moves: rethink the security of jobs and savings, turn paychecks into assets, distinguish borrowing for cash-flowing investments from borrowing for consumption, and question advice from people paid to sell financial products. He also tells the story of how a private-investment deal opened his eyes to who gets access to what he calls the "best investments." The episode challenges familiar ideas about financial safety—and makes a clear case for why its advice may not suit everyone.
Good Debt, Bad Debt, and the Cost of Learning the Difference
ListenedRobert Kiyosaki says his 58-foot sailboat and private jet earn their keep by being rented out—and uses them to explain his provocative claim that more debt can help you escape debt. In this episode, he contrasts loans paid from your own paycheck with borrowing to buy assets whose customers generate the cash to repay them. He also walks through a stock-options example, describes how crypto lending and staking can produce yield, and warns that leverage can wipe you out just as quickly as it can build wealth. His bottom line: learn first, start small, and know exactly who's paying.
