This is the Rich Dad Radio Show The Good News and Bad News About Money Here's Robert Kiyosaki
1:07Jeff Gottfurcht:Hello Robert Kiyosaki, the Rich Dad Radio Show The Good News and Bad News About Money And I'm broadcasting from Phoenix, Arizona Costell, Arizona Where it's either heaven or hell And right now it's heaven So all you guys that are freezing And wherever you freeze Come to Phoenix You know, it's beautiful Sunny, beautiful, warm. But I just completed one show with Glenn and Eric Meter. And their gig is Privacy Academy. It's how Big Brother is watching you. This is technology coming into our lives. So Big Brother is watching you. And they want to get all the data they can from you. So they were warning against CBDC, Central Bank Digital Currencies, and what we can do to defend ourselves.
1:56So Privacy Academy, they suggest understanding the problem first,
2:00Jeff Gottfurcht:the education program, to understand how big Big Brother is and who is Big Brother and what are they doing with the information. So I know that when I go, every time I go to a retail outlet, they want to know my phone number. And I don't give it out if it doesn't make any difference. I get it anyway. So, or your credit card number. So Big Brother is watching. Again, that was Glenn and Eric Meter of Privacy Academy. Today is an old friend of ours, Jeff Godfors, and he is CyberDive co-founder. The problem is similar but not the same. And I like his name, Godfors. But for full disclosure, I'm an investor in CyberDive.
2:45Jeff Gottfurcht:I like what they're doing. And what they're doing is, and Jeff, if I can get it wrong, jump on me. but basically big brother also wants your kid's number and what they do is they come in through the kid's cell phone so i invested in cyber dive for full disclosure because what jeff has done he's invented their own cell phone that big brother cannot get into so today we're going to be i want to have jeff talking about that how big and pervasive is this problem of privacy you know Glenn and Eric they got into this business because they were programming big brothers programming their son to commit suicide and wow so they find you know they go through the data they find let's say a child who may not be happy may be misfunctioning and all this you can program a child via the phone so Jeff again welcome to the Rich Dad Radio Show again and how did I do explaining what you guys do.
3:51Jeff Gottfurcht:You have your own cell phone for kids. How does that work?
3:54Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah, thank you for having us again. And what we have is a cell phone built specifically for kids where every action that takes place on that phone, regardless of on what social media site they're on, regardless if it's encrypted, if it's on Snapchat, all that information is sent to a parent dashboard all in real time. So now we have given the power back to the parent that the parent finally gets to see what nefarious things, what programming, what lobotomization is happening to their child. And before, like you had indicated, there had been a sort of a wall. Those major big companies did not want parents to know that.
4:40Robert Kiyosaki:And like your previous show, So, excuse me, we started the company because of a young girl who had been assaulted and wanted to commit suicide after an event. And we know that we've created something that's very unique, very different, and is a way to finally turn a wall sideways and turn that into a bridge for parents to get their power back finally.
5:15Jeff Gottfurcht:So how old basically are the kids or the children that use your Cyberdype phone?
5:21Robert Kiyosaki:It's a great question. We get kids ranging from four years old up above 18. And what I mean by that, a lot of parents are getting their child a phone for the first time. We also have parents who will give a phone to a child who might have some sort of special needs, who is over 18 and needs further monitoring and guidance. The most important thing that we understood was the genie is out of the bottle. Phones are not going away. And we wanted to be able to provide phones to a lot of parents who've grown up on social media and really believe in involvement over limitation, but are also scared of those things that are out there that are being programmed into their kids.
6:08Jeff Gottfurcht:yeah so um my my question you know if i was a kid i don't know if my i want my parents have a cyberdive phone you know i mean right i want to be private i mean do you have that problem at all
6:22Robert Kiyosaki:not really because most young kids when they're getting a phone for the first time they just want to go into the online world they want to understand what their parents are doing all day on their phones. They know they can learn to shop. They can listen to music. They could play games. All they want, especially young kids, they want to go on. It's sort of like driving without a seatbelt. You know, there was a time when we got to drive without seatbelts and when they told us we had to, we said no. But now for young people, they won't even get in a car without putting on the seatbelt. You know, it's been programmed into them.
6:58Robert Kiyosaki:So for us, kids just want to go into that online world because it's so magical. There's so many incredible things that can happen online and in social media. But again, we have that other end where there are those nefarious things.
7:12Jeff Gottfurcht:Right. So, you know, like if it bleeds, it leads, you know, the news. So you can cyberdive doing wonderful work, but everybody wants to know what are some of the horrible stories that have happened to kids or young people because they don't have a cyber dive? I mean, what are these? When I was a kid, the parents could lock the door. You come home, stay in the house, lock the door. Now you can't lock the door because the doors are wide open. Yeah. So what are some of the stories that have happened to kids that inspired cyber dive to step up the, you know, become a business, basically?
7:53Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah. And provide the service with parents. I think, again, there was a lot of nefarious things that happened online, anywhere from sex trafficking to sextortion, which is sort of like extortion with photos with someone who's nude, drugs, grooming, animal violence, violence on children that is so prevalent online. I mean, there is a group of predators out there that feeds upon seeing young kids in very highly sexual experiences. And you can now find that online. Before, you couldn't find that. You would have to go into the underground, but online, especially on the dark web, you can find it. So for us, we see a lot of very horrific things, very terrible things that are happening online that the general public does not want to know about.
8:46Robert Kiyosaki:There's a blind spot and they want to keep that blind spot. But for us, every story has a hero and a villain. And we like to try to be the hero because some of these things, Robert, are so disgusting and vile that are happening. but we really again wanted to be able to provide parents with a way so that they get to see what's happening. So these things can't happen to their kids because no one else is out there stopping it. And if they expect a social media company to stop it, it's going to be Christmas Eve for a very long time. They're not going to stop it. No.
9:23Jeff Gottfurcht:I remember when he was talking to you guys, it's like how they, you know, basically, I don't, Yeah. There's just predators. There's predators. Just predators. Yeah. Young boys and girls.
9:38Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah. Gosh, you miss sexually, you know, blackmailing them, basically.
9:43Jeff Gottfurcht:Of course.
9:44Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah. So. You know, I think. I'm sorry. I was going to say, I think about that when I'm in a restaurant. I will look around a restaurant and I'll see people in there and I'll always think, there is someone in here who's a predator. You know, they just look like a normal person, but on their phone, they have images of this or that or something that is nefarious. And it's just prevalent in our world now. Like you said, you can't lock people up behind the door anymore. And with kids, the predator is already in the house. And I think that's sort of what has inspired us to become the best company that we can and provide power back to the parent.
10:22Jeff Gottfurcht:Okay. So big question is how much does a CyberDive phone cost?
10:27Robert Kiyosaki:We have three plans that we offer because we really didn't want to be like a company that was out of anybody's zip code. So we start at$900 if that's if you want to own it outright. But then we have payment plans 24 months and 36 months so that anyone could afford it because we didn't want to be a gated community product. We want to help. I mean, that is part of our mission to make human life better.
10:57Jeff Gottfurcht:So if I paid cash, it's$900, or I can get it on time payment. Yes. And how does a parent access what's in that phone? Do you have a copy of one there?
11:11Robert Kiyosaki:I don't have one in front of me, but they have a parent dashboard. That's an app that they put on their phone or on their tablet. And all they do is push on that, and then it shows all of that information. It'll say, here's what your child did on TikTok. talk. Here's what your child did on Snapchat. Here's what your child did on WhatsApp. And remember, WhatsApp is encrypted. You can't even see that. I mean, that's the point of that. But for us, we're able to give that to the parent and deliver it in an app that is in real time and is perfectly, perfectly suited for them to understand what is happening with their child.
11:51Robert Kiyosaki:We wanted to make it as seamless and easy for that parent to understand that. So that is how they see that. The child has the phone, and then they have the app on their phone or tablet.
12:02Jeff Gottfurcht:It's kind of like I just got this thing called Ring. Yeah, yeah. I can be in South Africa and see somebody at my front door. Right, right. So that's kind of what the technology is doing.
12:16Robert Kiyosaki:It's a great analogy. That is sort of exactly how it is. But think about thousands of people knocking on your door all day, and you would be seeing thousands of people doing that.
12:27Jeff Gottfurcht:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. So when we come back, we'll be talking more, Jeff, God first. But it's a brave new world. That's what we're talking about with Eric and Glenn Matter of Privacy Academy. Big Brother is watching. And Big Brother's a pervert. Yeah. What a world, what a world, what a world. Because I grew up in the dark ages. I still remember I had to use, we didn't have cell phones. I had to carry quarters in my pocket to use a phone. But we knew who the predators in town were. I won't mention names, but we knew. Right. And tried to talk to little boys and little girls. but now they come in over the phone and what does a parent do?
13:24Jeff Gottfurcht:Big Brother is watching like we said, Big Brother is a weirdo. So we come back, we talk about Jeff Godfirst of CyberDive, what you can do to protect your children because if you don't protect your children with a CyberDive phone then Big Brother is happy about that. So we'll be right back with Jeff Godfirst.

15:05Jeff Gottfurcht:My blood is boiling and yours should be too. For decades, America's largest financial institutions like BlackRock and the
15:13Robert Kiyosaki:big banks like Wells Fargo and JP Morgan have been using a secret account to collect an average of 29 % per year. They never advertised it to the general public. They never told you about it. They just quietly parked billions here while offering you 0.4 % on your savings. Now, let me put that in perspective. The 29 % account is 72 times more profitable than anything banks offer the general public. 72 times. It's the difference between doubling your money every two and a half years and every 144 years. But here's the good news.
15:52Jeff Gottfurcht:What I recently uncovered is that this account isn't just for the big banks. It never was. They just didn't want you to know about it.
16:00Robert Kiyosaki:The truth is anyone can open one. It doesn't matter if you're 18 or 81. It doesn't matter if you've got$500 or$5 million. My name is Mark Lichtenfeld, and you need to watch my short presentation at the29account.com. That's the29account.com.
16:22Jeff Gottfurcht:Welcome back. Robert Kiyosaki, Richard Radio Show. Today our guest is Jeff Godfors. He's one of the co-founders of CyberDive and full disclosure, I'm an investor in CyberDive because I like what they're doing. And we're talking about, you know, we had Eric and Glenn Meador, a privacy academy for this, is how Big Brother is watching and how they want to steal all your information to use it against you. So when you go to a retail outlet that can't give you a phone number, I wouldn't give it out, but they'll get it anyway. Well, they'll get your credit card number, they'll get it. So I met Jeff years ago, and what they did was they created a phone to protect your kids.
17:01Jeff Gottfurcht:So it's a special phone, it's$900. So the parents can then, when they give their young child an iPhone, it's their phone, a cyberdive phone, and the parents can find out what's on the phone. And it's really a sad world when you think about all the predators out there, and that's why I invested in it. You know, before when I was a kid, mommy and daddy could lock the door. Today you can't. You know, and how do you protect your kids is the question. So we're talking at the break about CyberDive and how it bleeds, it leads.
17:38Jeff Gottfurcht:And there's a lot of goofy stuff going on out there. So what else does CyberDive do for the parent and to protect the kid?
17:46Robert Kiyosaki:I think most importantly, there is a euphemism that people use called peace of mind. And we hear that a lot. You get peace of mind with this. I think when we went about building our phones, we really wanted to lean into that. Again, we really wanted to be able to show parents what their children were being exposed to because, again, they're being programmed not only just by what's happening on social media, but also by like AI chatbots where kids are talking to bots about their problems and issues. And there have been recent cases where those bots have encouraged kids to commit suicide. And those cases are now going through the courts and so forth.
Read the full transcript
18:32Robert Kiyosaki:But that is the strange world we live in now, that a child can be talking to a large language model bot, and that bot can lead them to a path to take their life, and they do it. And when I speak about peace of mind, that is what we wanted to be able to provide because we understood that that big brother is almost hijacking kids, lobotomizing them, making them to think certain ways that those companies want them to think and sort of taking away their free thought about issues. And we think we've accomplished that with a really great phone that does that. Thank you.
19:14Jeff Gottfurcht:So I was talking to Eric and Glenn Medder of Privacy Academy, how they protect adults. What Jeff with CyberDive does is protect actually the parents and the kids. And the question is, who is they? Who wants to do that? I mean, what kind of deviant would want to do that? I mean, could it be anybody or is it organized or who's they?
19:40Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah, I think there are multiple rings when we talk about that. I think there's individuals who are doing it. There are organized crime groups who go after kids. And I think we're in a space, again, where social media companies are trying, in an essence, to protect people and protect kids. but there are so many nefarious people and predators out there and they look normal. You know, they're just normal looking people. When you see the pictures after they've been arrested, they look like just like normal human beings. You know, we often envision nefarious people looking very nefarious, looking, and they're not, they're not.
20:22Robert Kiyosaki:They just have very bad intentions. And those people can get onto your kid's phone and I can promise you they're not bringing milk and cookies to your house. That's not what they're doing. They want other things.
20:34Jeff Gottfurcht:Do you have an example of one? Have you guys caught anybody?
20:38Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah, we had a recent case just recently that happened on a platform called Roblox, where a 14-year-old girl in Virginia was on that platform and a person pretending to be a young boy started to talk to them and then got them to move to a site to video chat. And they started chatting. He was not a 14 year old boy. He was a man. And during that conversation, he then took down his pants and started to pleasure himself with her on the Zoom chat. Our phone spotted that. That phone shut down. that parent then reached out to the authorities in Virginia and South Carolina law enforcement and we were able to send all of those sessions of everything that happened to that law enforcement agency and they were able to move forward with the prosecution of that and I think that is something we're very proud of that we're able to see those things and to help and that is a real-time event that happened i mean that's it happened and it happened to a young girl and we were able to protect her and that's what we're happy that we were able to accomplish so that also work in favor
22:01Jeff Gottfurcht:because what cyberdive was actually got this guy's identity and all that and yeah we were able i mean
22:07Robert Kiyosaki:we were able to record everything so we were able to send all of that to law enforcement so they were able to see his face. They were able to see the whole action of him doing that and the whole beginning of him trying to groom her. He started to be friendly with her about a game and then it moved into let's do this sexually. And so you were able to see that whole journey and we were able to provide that to law enforcement. I mean, and that's, what more can you say? That's the win right there. So when he goes to court, what can he say, right? Yeah, there's nothing. I mean, he's going to be, he just got to put his head down.
22:45Robert Kiyosaki:He's going to be just.
22:46Jeff Gottfurcht:It's like the old TV show, smile, you're on candid camera.
22:49Robert Kiyosaki:Exactly. Smile, you're on candid camera. Exactly. 100%. But that's a real world event that happened. And we're really proud of that. And we have that happen all the time where parents tell us, here's what I caught. Here's what I saw. Here's what I'm able to help my kid with. And that's really gratifying for us.
23:08Jeff Gottfurcht:in the 1960s, that's how old I am. I was in school in New York, and there was this very famous, I'll mention his name, DJ, radio guy. Okay. And he was saying to all the kids, okay now, kids, go to your mother's wallet or your father's wallet, get some money out, and send it to me. And he was raking it in, you know? Right. All these kids will send in money. I go, God almighty. So they busted him. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Because he was famous, too. I mean, but they busted him. Anyway, it's such a brave new world we live in. Right, right. So what else do you see coming down the road for Cyberdyrk?
23:57Jeff Gottfurcht:Again, full disclosure, I invest in your company because I like your product. I like what you do. You guys are ahead of the game. but you have to stay ahead of them also too don't you i mean technology aids them as well as you
24:09Robert Kiyosaki:guys yeah of course for us we always have to telegraph the future if we're just standing still that's not good so for us besides our phones we are going to be having coming out tvs as well and we did that we wanted to create a smart tv where parents can then see what their kids are doing when their children are playing video games because if they're playing games like fortnite or minecraft any or roblox they're chatting with people there are people talking to them and when a child is doing that on a video game there's no monitoring of that so we're really proud that we're in development of that that television because i think that's completes the whole picture for the parent the parent will have the phone and then they have the tv where they have like their playstation or their xbox hooked up to and for us we knew customers wanted that and that was a frontier where we knew that kids were also being attacked and a lot of nefarious predators on that as well and we're excited about that it's a big step to develop that's a big step yeah it's huge yeah but let me ask another question because i
25:19Jeff Gottfurcht:I don't know much about it.
25:21Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah.
25:21Jeff Gottfurcht:What is the dark web? A dark place.
25:27It's an area where you have to dive deep in order.
25:33Robert Kiyosaki:Like us normal people, when we type something into like Google or a search engine, you know, we're getting the top layer of what's out there. I mean, if we're looking at a car or, you know, a jacket, whatever it is, you can go further down, deeper into that. And when you get down to sort of a lower level, that is where a lot of nefarious things are. And that is trafficking, drugs, a lot of other illicit things. And I have to tell you and all the viewers, it's out there. It is real. These things that we sometimes might see in movies that we think are just in a movie, it's real. And it's even worse in the real world.
26:13Robert Kiyosaki:I mean, the stories we hear about what people do to kids and to animals and to things of that nature, it is a, like you said, it is a new world. And it is time that we understand what is happening out there.
26:33Jeff Gottfurcht:It's interesting. My physician, my doctor, she just got married and had a child. But her husband got his PhD in the dark web. So I'm going to interview him next to figure out what is this dark web. And you may remember one of the things that people were against Bitcoin was about was Bitcoin was what funded the dark web. That's what they claim. And so there's so much we do not see that we'll never see because it's an invisible world of the dark web, whatever that is.
27:07Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And I think that's a good point that we go about our day-to-day lives just looking at what's in front of us and sort of going through the cadence of what we're doing. But there is a whole arena, just a dark web, a online world that we don't know about and parents don't know about. But in most normal people just going through their day-to-day, they're not aware of it. But the sad thing is it's there. And at a granular level, people are being hurt. And that is sort of the reason we started our company. Because yes, we know we can help. And that makes us feel good. That's why we put our feet on the ground every morning to be a company that does things right and does try to make human life better.
27:58Jeff Gottfurcht:Well, you fight back against the dark web or you put light into the dark web.
28:03Robert Kiyosaki:Yeah. We try to bring some light. I like that. Right? And like you said, if it leads, it bleeds. Right?
28:10Jeff Gottfurcht:What we're talking about during the break is that I'm so old. I had to carry quarters in my pocket. You know, so I fly from Hawaii to New York to do a CNBC or something. I had to carry piles of quarters in my wallet, my pack. I set off all these alarm bells and all this. So I fly from Hawaii to California, and I get on the phone, and I dial New York and get a busy signal. Now with the iPhone, it's so much faster and quicker, but so that the dark side get faster and quicker also. And I must confess, we're laughing about this. 25 cents was a lot of money back then. So I used to travel all over the world.
28:52Jeff Gottfurcht:And one day I put, I think it was 100 yen piece or something. instead of 25 cents, it was like three cents or something like this in yen. And it worked perfectly in the payphone. So could you imagine? And back then, they used to break into the payphones and steal the money. So somebody breaks into this payphone, they get Japanese yen.
29:22Jeff Gottfurcht:There's always a way to get around the whole thing.
29:25Robert Kiyosaki:Absolutely. I love these stories because all these interesting stories that you've experienced, I love hearing them.
29:32Jeff Gottfurcht:Yeah, I mean, it's real life. I have a t-shirt across the front that says Saint on it. I don't dare wear it, but anyway.
29:45Jeff Gottfurcht:But anyway, we all have a dark side to this, and so does the world. So anyway, Jeff, God first, congratulations on your success. I'm looking forward to the TV. I'm glad I invested in Cyberdy for full disclosure. And again, Rich Dad makes no recommendations, just full disclosure. So keep up the good work, Jeff.
30:08Robert Kiyosaki:Thank you. Really appreciate it. Loved being on with you. Thank you for everything.
30:12Jeff Gottfurcht:Thank you. And we're right back with a final word from Rich Dad.
30:18Robert Kiyosaki:This isn't about a market crash. It's about how money is changing. Today, every payment is logged. Every transaction is tracked. And now AI is layered on top of the system to predict behavior, not just record it. That's how control increases. Quietly, gradually, without headlines. When systems are under pressure, rules change. Access gets restricted. Spending gets flagged. And savers lose purchasing power first. That's why gold and silver had mattered for centuries. They sit outside the digital grid. They can't be edited, frozen, or reprogrammed. If you want a clear explanation of what's changing and how people are positioning Priority Gold, put it all together in a free Rich Dad Wealth Defense Guide.

It was like staring at a blank page of paper with no idea where to start. I wished for someone to take the ideas in my head and create my dream website. Well, Wix may have just done that. Wix new Harmony Editor makes it so easy to create a website exactly how you imagine it. that's almost like you're just thinking out loud.
31:41Robert Kiyosaki:Here's how it works. Just type in a prompt and get a professional website in minutes. And then, here's my favorite part, you can jump back and forth between AI and hands-on drop-and-drag tools whenever you want. So your website actually ends up looking the way you pictured it. Let me say that part again. You choose how you build with the speed of AI, but you stay in control of every little detail. Wix has been pioneering website tech for almost 20 years and have done it again. Experience the new way to create website. Try Wix Harmony for free at wix.com slash harmony.

32:22Jeff Gottfurcht:Welcome back. Robert Hussack, Richard, Radio Show. I want to thank Jeff Godfors of Cyberdype. Again, for full disclosure, I do invest in their company. I like what they're doing. They're fighting the dark side. And final word about being a senior citizen now. that says you get older, it's more important you do work that inspires you. So I've loved teaching. It's my casual board game there. And I teach all over the world because it keeps my spirit happy. Education is what keeps us moving forward ahead of the dark side. So thank you again, Jeff Scott first. And thank you all for watching the Rich Dad Radio Show.
32:59Jeff Gottfurcht:Thank you.
33:04Robert Kiyosaki:This podcast is a presentation of Rich Dad Media Network.
From the publisher
Protect kids from online predators by learning how digital threats actually reach your home. In this episode of The Rich Dad Radio Show, host Robert Kiyosaki interviews Jeff Gottfurcht, co-founder of Cyber Dive, about the growing safety risks children face through smartphones, social media platforms, and online gaming.
Most parents think danger happens outside the home. Today it enters through a device in your child's bedroom. Jeff explains how offenders impersonate kids, move conversations to private chats, and manipulate behavior through messaging apps and video platforms.
Robert and Jeff discuss why parental assumptions about safety often fail. They explain how encrypted messaging, anonymous accounts, and gaming communities allow strangers to contact minors directly. Jeff also shares warning signs families miss and why many parents discover problems only after serious situations develop.
You'll learn:
• How online grooming begins
• Why gaming platforms create exposure
• Warning signs parents overlook
• How monitoring tools help intervene early
• What conversations parents should have with kids
This matters now because children receive smartphones younger than ever, while private communication apps and AI-driven platforms make manipulation easier. Financial education protects your money — but digital awareness protects your family.

The next crisis may not look like 2008. It may look like control.
Digital surveillance, digital IDs, and central bank digital currencies are building a "permission-based" financial system. Gold and silver sit outside the digital grid. That's why they matter when the rules change.
