v2.11 - What Robert Kiyosaki’s Bitcoin Sale Actually Teaches
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you think a 14% return in the S&P 500 and a 14% cash-on-cash return in real estate are the same thing, you’re missing the full picture.
Dustin and Adam dig into Robert Kiyosaki's recent tweet about selling $2.25 million in Bitcoin and reinvesting it into real assets generating $27,500 per month in tax-advantaged cash flow – and why the top reply (”just buy an S&P 500 ETF”) gets it completely wrong.
One return is paper gains you can’t spend. The other is real money hitting your bank account…plus appreciation, plus depreciation deductions that could make the income effectively tax-free.
They also break down why the 4% retirement withdrawal rule can destroy a portfolio if you retire into a bear market – and how cash-flowing assets eliminate that risk entirely.
