In his latest X post, Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, has once again sounded a cautious alarm, adding how 2026 might be the year when recession hits the world. Sharing the data insights to back his claim, Kiyosaki said that ADP has announced 32,000 layoffs, with small businesses laying off nearly 320,000 workers. These signs are signalling global recession fears brewing over, with Kiyosaki suggesting ways to secure one’s wealth in such a scenario.

“Lesson #4: How to get richer when the economy crashes. ADP just announced 32,000 jobs were lost in November. Those job losses are from big businesses. The frightening news is small businesses laid off 120,000 workers. The bigger layoffs will begin in 2026 when the world slides into a global recession. If you are concerned your job may be on the block, you may want to consider my Lesson #4 on how to get richer when the economy crashes.”

The Rich Dad Poor Dad author shared how to join Uber or Lyft service to begin to learn more about their “system,” all while suggesting starting a business that can survive the pangs of recessions by delivering value in those times.

“#1: If you own your own car, you may want to join Uber or Lyft now and learn their system. I use their service a lot, especially if I have been partying. #2: If you can SELL…most employees can’t sell…start looking for a business or product…you think will survive a recession… Do your market research on the business or product now… before the 2026 recession begins. When the recession hits… go to the business and let them know how you can expand the business by increasing sales.”

Additional Tips and Predictions By Kiyosaki

The tweet further comprises two more methods of surviving and combating the looming recession. Kiyosaki suggested that structuring the real estate services by purchasing dilapidated properties and selling them before the crisis hits might be a good idea to survive the looming recession crisis.

“#3: If you can raise capital…most employees…definitely cannot put a deal together and secure investor financing. Residential and commercial real estate will crash in 2026. Real estate bargains will float to the surface. A number of “deals of a lifetime” will be floating to the surface. Waiting for you to put the investment and investors together. Finding distressed properties, assembling a team of asset developers… and selling the asset is what I do today…. Getting richer using other people’s time, skills, and money. It’s called “Capitalism.”

Lastly, Kitosaki advised his audience to go to school and learn a trade, as well as accumulate assets like gold, silver, and BTC to outsmart a recession.

“Go to trade school to learn a trade. Rather than returning to school . Accumulating student loan debt…learning about the history of French miniature art. Or some other useful subject…go to trade school, learn to do something useful…and get paid for what you learned… Accumulate and save “assets” that go up in value as our FAKE $ loses value. Keep your job and save real gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum.”
