'Rich Dad Poor Dad' author returns to Johannesburg for the National Achievers Congress 2025

Robert Kiyosaki, the world-renowned author of "Rich Dad Poor Dad" -  the number one personal finance book of all time - is returning to Johannesburg for what may be his final live appearance in South Africa.

The National Achievers Congress 2025 (NAC) will be hosted at Emperors Palace on the weekend of 10th and 11th May 2025.

Kiyosaki’s latest urgent call to action is to “Make The World Rich Again,” beginning with South Africa.

As a close ally and co-author with former U.S. President Donald Trump, Kiyosaki’s financial philosophies were shaped alongside one of the most controversial and influential business figures of our time.

Their shared belief in financial education, entrepreneurship, and building real wealth over time laid the foundation for two best-selling books: "Midas Touch" and "Why We Want You To Be Rich".

At this year’s NAC, Kiyosaki will expand on these principles, reflecting on how Trump’s presidency reshaped the financial world—and what that means for your financial future.

This event offers a rare opportunity to learn from someone who has been inside the room where high-level economic decisions are made and who now wants to pass that insider knowledge directly to you.

“I’ll be talking to delegates about the three types of money in the world today: God’s money, which is gold, silver and platinum; government’s money, which is the dollar, the pound, the rand and the yen; and what I call people’s money - cryptocurrency in the form of Bitcoin and other currencies,” says Kiyosaki.

“We’ll be discussing what I see happening in the past, the present and the future of money and our world, which will allow delegates to make plans to prosper into the future and not get wiped out, as many people will be.”

For years, Kiyosaki has warned about major financial shifts, and time and again, he has been right. Now, he believes an even greater wealth transfer is underway.

Those who prepare for it, he says, will not only survive but could prosper enormously. At this event, Kiyosaki will share his latest predictions on the economy, markets, inflation, and more. He’ll dive into the biggest money mistakes people are making right now, the types of investments likely to thrive—or crash—and how the rise of AI, crypto, and Bitcoin could offer explosive opportunities for those ready to act.

Joining Kiyosaki on stage are global experts including Rugby World Cup Champion and South African icon Bryan Habana, who brings his powerful journey of discipline, leadership, and business mindset into focus.

Also speaking is Mpho Dagada, a leading voice in Africa’s Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), and a passionate advocate for youth empowerment and digital transformation.

Sandy Jadeja, a globally respected Chief Market Strategist known for delivering cutting-edge financial strategies, will offer key insights on navigating uncertain markets with clarity and confidence.

The National Achievers Congress 2025 is committed to raising the financial literacy of South Africans and equipping individuals with tools to take control of their financial destinies.

Attendees will walk away with a clear understanding of how to distinguish assets from liabilities, build income-generating investments that outpace inflation, transition from earning money to making money work for them, and leverage both good and bad debt to their advantage.

Whether you’re navigating economic uncertainty, seeking to grow your wealth, or simply aiming to secure a better future—this event could be the turning point.
