This approach aligns with Kiyosaki\u2019s warning to avoid over-relying on traditional retirement accounts tied to equities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/udirectira.com\/\">uDirect IRA Services, LLC<\/a>\u00a0is here to help you~!\u00a0 We are not a fiduciary and we do not offer tax or legal advice.
