Summary

What if everything you thought you knew about money was a lie?

In this episode of The Rich Dad Radio Show, Robert Kiyosaki sits down with Lawrence Lepard, investor and author of The Big Print, to expose the shocking truth behind inflation, money printing, and why your dollar is losing value faster than ever. Did you know that 40% of all U.S. dollars were printed in just the past few years? That’s not just reckless—it’s criminal.

Lawrence explains how central banks, government spending, and a broken monetary system have stolen wealth from the middle class while making the rich even richer. From the Cantillon Effect to the collapse of fiat currency, this episode lays out the hidden forces reshaping your financial future—and what you can do about it.

We also dive into the potential of Bitcoin and sound money, and why now may be the best time in history to build real wealth—if you understand what’s coming.
