PODCAST EPISODE 360 – From Financial Teacher to Doom Prophet: The Hidden Cost of Fear-Based Investing

Robert Kiyosaki helped change how millions of people think about money. But what happens when a voice that once educated and empowered starts leaning into fear-based predictions?

In this episode of More Than Commas, Paul takes a closer look at Kiyosaki’s evolution (from the impact of Rich Dad, Poor Dad to his repeated market crash warnings) and breaks down what he predicted vs. what actually happened.

More importantly, we explore how these narratives can influence investor behavior, why fear-based messaging spreads so easily, and what investors should focus on instead to build real, long-term wealth.
