2024 has proven to be a highly profitable year for investors in the stock and cryptocurrency markets. Aside from them, gold has reached its all-time high, and silver is trading in the green, making it an opportune time to consider investing.
One of their staunch supporters and investors is Robert Kiyosaki, a famous finance author who has spent his career advocating against fiat money and proposing alternative ways of investment, calling them “real assets.”
Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL) have found their place in his portfolio.
Kiyosaki uses these assets as a means of deterrence against inflation and tools to increase his profits.
Considering this, Finbold decided to analyze his portfolio and determine how much an investment of $10,000 in the popular finance book “Rich Dad, Poor Dad’s” author portfolio at the start of 2024 would be worth now.
All of Kiyosaki’s investments have recorded a profit this year
If a trader decided to invest $10,000 into five different Kiyosaki portfolio holdings, that would mean an investment of $2,000 each as an effective means of spreading and diversification.
Starting with his favorite asset, Bitcoin, which has experienced a 37.90% growth year-to-date (YTD), $2,000 invested in maiden crypto would acquire 0.0453 BTC, now worth $2,758.04.
Next in line is Ethereum, which has grown 12.05% since January 1. A $2,000 investment would yield 0.8501 ETH, which would have a value of $2,238.89 at the time of writing.
Solana’s growth was the biggest during the eight months of 2024, rising 41.36%. $2,000 invested would buy 19.70 SOL, which is currently valued at $2,821.79.
Commodities, namely precious metals such as gold and silver, experienced more modest growths at 21.37% and 23.91%, respectively, valued at $2,427.56 for gold and $2,478.35 for silver.
Profit for those who copied Kiyosaki’s portfolio
Investors who decided to allocate $10,000 on January 1 would see their investments increase by 27.24% and be valued at $12,724.63 on August 22.
Geopolitical tensions and fears of a possible recession were the main profit drivers in this portfolio, as the Federal Reserve has postponed cutting interest rates for September at least, motivating traders to turn towards more conventional means of investing, regarded as safe-haven assets.
