About this episode
Robert Kiyosaki discusses the historical deal signed in 1944 that shaped the global economy and its implications on wealth distribution.
In 1944, 44 countries signed a deal. One country wrote the rules. And the world has been paying for it ever since. Robert Kiyosaki breaks down the hidden system behind your dollar — from Bretton Woods to Nixon's 1971 bombshell to the petrodollar deal almost nobody talks about. If you've ever wondered why prices keep rising, why saving money feels futile, or why the rich keep getting richer while everyone else falls behind — the answer starts here.
