Robert Kiyosaki, author of the #1 best-selling personal finance book ever, Rich Dad, Poor Dad, is very concerned about 2021. He believes that America is suffering from great social division largely caused by the unfair policies of the Federal Reserve which is picking who wins (the already rich and powerful) and who loses (everyone else) in today's society. As a former marine who fought for the American ideals of freedom and fairness, Robert is concerned that the US is fast losing both. And the damage done to the economy, throwing tens of millions of households out of work and decimating many small businesses, is only making the situation worse. Having this struggling economy paired with financial markets at historic levels of over-valuation, Kiyosaki fears it's going to be rough going for those looking to build wealth from here. Which is why he thinks developing financial literacy and creating income streams that you control are more important than ever. And Robert agrees with Peak Prosperity's outlook that now, more than ever, is the time to partner with a financial advisor who understands the risks in play, can craft an appropriate portfolio strategy for you given your needs, and apply sound risk management protection where appropriate.

Adam Taggart is the President and Co-Founder of Peak Prosperity. He wears many hats, but his basic job is to handle the business side of things so that his fellow co-founder, Chris Martenson, is free to think and write. Adam is an experienced Silicon Valley internet executive and Stanford MBA. Prior to partnering with Chris (Adam was General Manager of our earlier site, ChrisMartenson.com), he was a Vice President at Yahoo!, a company he served for nine years. Before that, he did the 'startup thing' (mySimon.com, sold to CNET in 2001). As a fresh-faced graduate from Brown University in the early 1990s, Adam got a first-hand look at all that was broken with Wall Street as an investment banking analyst for Merrill Lynch. Most importantly, he's a devoted husband and dad.
