Robert Kiyosaki, author of the bestselling book Rich Dad Poor Dad and one of America's best-known financial gurus, is predicting that Zurich-based investment bank Credit Suisse will be the next bank to fail because of the trouble in the bond market.
Robert Kiyosaki, author of the bestselling book Rich Dad Poor Dad and one of America's best-known financial gurus, is predicting that Zurich-based investment bank Credit Suisse will be the next bank to fail because of the trouble in the bond market.
In an interview with Fox Business, now available on YouTube, Kiyosaki said he was "concerned" about the situation, adding: "The problem is the bond market, and my prediction—I called Lehman Brothers years ago—and I think the next bank to go is Credit Suisse…because the bond market is crashing."
Kiyosaki, who founded his business Rich Dad Company on the back of the popularity of his 1997 bestseller, recommended people buy gold and silver to keep their savings safe as he expects the Federal Reserve to print more money to keep the U.S. economy afloat.
"BAIL OUTS begin. More fake money to invade sick economy. Still recommend same response. Buy more G, S, BC. Take care. Crash landing ahead," Kiyosaki tweeted on Monda

Never in the history of the world has Gold and Silver been totally worthless But that time is coming.
In terms of barter, the man who trades a sack of flour for a pound of silver would be foolish. Better he keep his flour because he cannot eat your silver.
A time is coming when a man will need to work all day for a lousy loaf of bread, and he will not take silver in return for his work because no one will want it. Silver, Gold, and Diamonds are not edible.
The banks hold dollars. Well, not really. They hold numbers 010100101101 ...that is where your bread comes from at the moment. As they fail those ones and zeros will vanish. People will not want something they cannot eat.
Those who are rich simply have more zeros and ones. But they can all vanish. Then food will be the money. not ones, zeros or gold or silver.
Paper and Gold will hold value for a short time, until people realize they cannot eat paper or gold.
[The bank in this thread also has great holdings in precious metals']
It all begins with the banks. It will all end with the banks.
We cannot trust a word Biden says. Do we really believe the US can prop up all the money in all of the banks? And who will prop up Credit Suisse?
It is impossible to prop up the worlds banks. ...
The banks are the Gold. The paper and the silver.
If someone holds money in one hand and bread in the other, and I am starving. I will take the bread every time. Credit Suisse has no holdings in bread. They store no meat. They have no means of doing so. They also have holdings in diamonds as well. Swallow one and see if it provides you any nourishment.
This is where we are headed. It is about control, and when someone is hungry...you can control them
Whether deliberate or not, someone is at the root cause of the banks failures. So it is
happening and perhaps the reasons for it no longer matter? We just need to be prepared

Bank of Japan keep an eye on that one.
Japan is getting a new Bank of Japan (BOJ) governor. The government has presented economist Ueda Kazuo to the Diet as its candidate. Ueda will need to be approved by both the House of Representatives and the House of Councillors, but since the ruling party has a majority in both chambers, this is unlikely to present a problem. Incumbent BOJ Governor Kuroda Haruhiko’s current term ends in April.
There has long been considerable speculation as to who would replace Kuroda, best known for coming up with the so-called “unprecedented monetary easing” as a means to overcome Japan’s persistent deflation. Many observers have felt that the choice of his successor would determine the fate of Kuroda’s signature policy.
Ueda is a widely respected economist specializing in finance. After graduating from the University of Tokyo, he earned a Ph.D. from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. From 1998 to 2005, he was a member of the Policy Board at the BoJ Monetary Policy Meeting, so he has considerable practical experience. Traditionally, however, the BoJ governor has been appointed from within the Ministry of Finance or from within the BOJ itself This is the first time a scholar has been appointed since the end of World War II.
If confirmed, Ueda faces numerous challenges. After all, Kuroda’s unprecedented monetary easing policies have not only been ineffective, they have in fact been conspicuously harmful.

don't worry, if anything bad does happen, it's Trump's fault. So there is that.
