Taking to X, the popular author quoted a Vietnam-era protest song: “War: What is it good for? Absolutely nothing.” He, however, noted that if wars were not profitable, there wouldn’t have been any wars.
Kiyosaki said that he served Vietnam’s military twice, once in 1966 and then in 1971-72. During this time, he lost many friends. “I returned to Vietnam three weeks ago to find my own answers, say goodbye to lost friends, and make peace with myself. My concern about this war in the “Holy Lands” is for those killed and wounded in this war,” he said.
The author added that his concern also includes those of us at home who are far from this war but will suffer financially due to inflation. “Our national debt, poverty, and homelessness are how we all pay for this war,” he further said, adding that this is why financial education is essential in times of peace and especially in times of war.
“Your greatest asset is you, and your choices as to what financial education you choose to put into your brain. War may be a time for you to get smarter and richer….if you choose your teachers and your financial education with care,” he wrote.

Like many of you, I had no money to start with… but I just bought small assets, held them for years, and rarely sold. Most of you know I bought my first six Bitcoins for $600 — all the money I had — and did not eat for days. It took plain and simple US Marine Corps discipline and close friends, not with money but with spiritual support,” he wrote in his post on X.
Kiyosaki claimed that even billionaire investor Warren Buffett has sold billions of dollars worth of stocks and is sitting on large cash reserves, waiting for markets to fall so he can buy assets at lower prices.
“Rich lesson on investing: Investors who can see the future are the investors who get richer. The ‘buy, hold, and pray’ crowd will be the biggest losers,” he added.
The rising hostilities in the oil-rich Middle East have led to the prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz, resulting in a mind-boggling rally in oil prices. Brent crude is currently hovering above the $110-level. The sharp surge has triggered inflation worries back in India as well, leading to a massive selloff on Dalal Street.
