Blurb -
"In 'Crisis Investing', Douglas Casey offers virtually irrefutable evidence that a major crash of the U.S. economy is now inevitable. If Casey is correct, then prudent, thrifty Americans who have prepared for the future in traditional ways will soon be completely wiped out.
Casey wards that "many people never plan properly for the future, simply because they are afraid they will discover they have built their hopes and dreams on foundations of quicksand." You need to read 'Crisis Investing' if you either don't believe the following events will occur over the next few years, or don't know how to take proper measures to protect yourself when they do:
- Strict controls on wages, prices and profits, with jail sentences handed out to those who do not comply.
- Restrictions on traveling abroad.
- A ban on foreign bank accounts, with severe limitations on funds that can be sent out of the country.
- Inflation of well over 20% - at first - then accelerating rapidly thereafter.
- Chaotic shortages resulting in rationing, black markets, searches, siezures and confiscation.
- Unemployment rates in excess of those experienced during the Great Depression of the 1930s
- Bankruptcy, on a massive scale, of major corporations and local and state governments.
- The drying up of capital markets, with no money at all available for stock or bond issues.
- Nationalization of major industries.
- The complete collapse of the Social Security System, as well as most, if not all, pension funds.
- Riots, protests and general chaos, which will be brought under control by a national police force.
- Confiscation of gold from individuals.
Fortunately, in 'Crisis Investing' Douglas Casey provides specific advice on how to prepare for such calamities, advice which he believes will actually produce profits from the coming depression."
