Do not be fooled by the fact it is described as fiction. The fiction is simply used to bring forth facts. I will be using some of the facts that I learned to improve my investment returns."L. Klopping"Should be read by everyone, learned so much. Year 2020, world economy is collapsing. This book and all the articles after the "Afterword" are to teach us how survive the next crash."Tulay C."Reading this book put me very much in the state of mind I was in during the Presidential race of 1992 listening to Ross Perot, telling of his predictions for the economic future of this country. We all knew he was absolutely correct, maybe somewhat understated, and we numbly sat their while the elite, using the media, cast him as a clown. It is not a question of if, it is merely a question of when. You do not have to be psychic, you need only do the math."JC Stadler"A well-written, easy thriller to read, this is actually a financial survivalist book with a scholarly twist. If you have any savings at all, you should read it. If you liked The Big Short, this book travels the same road, but in defensive rather than aggressive mode. The book is written by Gordon L Eade, father of the political-legal-ecological thriller writer, Kenneth Eade. Like all the Eade books it is based on real complex events and systems, but tells its tale through its characters."NerodogGet the paperback now and start reading while you wait for delivery with the free Kindle Match Book.
