‘Is it too late to buy Silver?’ The “Rich Dad Poor Dad” author and American businessman Robert Kiyosaki answered the burning question in a new tweet published early Friday morning (IST). Sharing his own connection with Silver, he confessed that began acquiring it in 1965 when Silver was less than a dollar an ounce.

Just earlier this week, news broke out that the metal had surged past $70 an ounce for the first time ever in European trading on December 23. And so, Kiyosaki’s new piece of financial advice followed Silver’s historic high headline-making milestone.

Robert Kiyosaki advice on Silver

“Silver is over $70 USD an ounce,” he wrote in a social media post on X. “If you think silver is at an all time high then you’re too late… I believe silver is just getting started and I believe $70- $200 silver could be an outside reality in 2026.”

Believing that “$200 silver” was also possible, he told readers that it was better that they do their own research to find “the best way for you to get richer.” Kiyosaki earnestly told social media users that starting small was always a good thing, as it allowed your wealth to “be in your head and in your hands.”

The financial guru added, “Even if you make mistakes you become richer than a person just lets people tell them what to do.” On top of that, he emphasised that learning from one’s mistakes, wins and losses was what would ultimately helped a someone become a “truly rich person.”

Will Silver deliver higher return in 2026?

Just about a month ago, renowned personality Keith Neumeyer, CEO of First Majestic reiterated that the white metal would eventually hit the $100 mark or even achieve a value as high as $130 per ounce, according to InvestingNews.com. The expert’s comments were nothing out of the ordinary, as he’s been foregrounding the same admission for the past few years.

“I’ve been calling for triple-digit silver for a few years now, and I’m more enthused now,” Neumeyer said at a January 2020 event. “But I’m cautiously enthused because, you know, I thought it would have happened sooner than it currently is happening.”

Other experts on the same page have also been anticipating the white metal’s continued positive performance next year. According to an Economic Times report, Naveen Mathur, Director – Commodities, currencies & international business, Anand Rathi Share & Stock Brokers said, “Both metals (silver and gold are entering 2026 with strong fundamentals, though returns may normalise in the new year.”

He further held the strong belief in his explanation that silver would continue outperforming gold despite higher volatility due to its dual role as a precious and industrial metal.

Prithviraj Kothari, managing director at RiddhiSiddhi Bullions Ltd, President of India Bullion and Jewellers Association Ltd also predicted, “Silver may outperform on a percentage basis, with targets of $75-80 (~Rs 230k and 50k) aided by industrial demand and tight supply, as per the ET report.

Siddharth Jain, Vice President – Valuations, SPA Capital Services Limited also told ET that silver’s position as a high-beta asset allowed it to move faster than gold once a bull cycle is achieved.

Meanwhile, Aksha Kamboj, Vice President, Indian Bullion & Jewellers Association (IBJA) and Executive Chairperson, Aspect Global Ventures, recommended that people investing in silver on small scale than how much they’re doing in gold. According to the ET report, Kamboj also noted that spreading out silver investments over time was suggested. He even pointed to how the declining gold-silver ratio could see the metal outperform gold.

“A declining ratio typically reflects stronger relative momentum in silver,” he told ET. “At current levels, the ratio suggest silver is closer to fair value versus gold, and some consolidation in silver or relative catch-up in gold cannot be ruled out.”
