Despite years of gloomy forecasts, best-selling personal finance author and prominent ‘finfluencer’ Robert Kiyosaki’s favorite assets, gold, silver, and Bitcoin (BTC), are all up in early 2026, meaning a $1,000 investment at the start of the year would already be showing a double-digit gain.
To see how his strategy is holding up, we calculated the return on a simple $1,000 investment made on January 1, 2026.
The Robert Kiyosaki portfolio 2026 performance
In the first 19 days of the year, Bitcoin rose 6.59% from $87,412 on New Year’s Day to $93,169 at press time. This means that a $1,000 investment made in BTC at the start of 2026 would have turned into $1,065 by January 19 – a limited but respectable profit of $65.90, considering less than three weeks elapsed so far.

Gold, the world’s foremost ‘safe haven’ asset, has been even more impressive. The yellow metal is 7.94% up in the year-to-date (YTD) chart as it has risen from $4,332 to $4,669. Thus, $1,000 invested on January 1 would have turned into $1,079.

Lastly, had an investor chosen to create a $1,000 ‘Robert Kiyosaki portfolio,’ with an equal distribution among the three investments – so, $333 allocated to each of them – they’d have a total of $1,139 on January 19, for a total increase of 14%. Once again, a limited yet respectable profit in less than three weeks.
