The best-selling author of The Death of Money and Currency Wars reveals the global elites' dark effort to hide a coming catastrophe from investors.
A drumbeat is sounding among the global elites. The signs of a worldwide financial meltdown are unmistakable. This time the elites have an audacious plan to protect themselves from the fallout: hoarding cash now and locking down the global financial system when a crisis hits.
Since 2014, international monetary agencies have been issuing warnings to a small group of finance ministers, banks, and private equity funds: The US government's cowardly choices not to prosecute J.P. Morgan and its ilk and to bloat the economy with a $4 trillion injection of easy credit are driving us headlong toward a cliff.
As Rickards shows in this frightening, meticulously researched book, governments around the world have no compunction about conspiring against their citizens. They will have stockpiled hard assets when stock exchanges are closed, ATMs shut down, money market funds frozen, asset managers instructed not to sell securities, negative interest rates imposed, and cash withdrawals denied.
If you want to plan for the risks ahead, you will need Rickards's cutting-edge synthesis of behavioral economics, history, and complexity theory. It's a guidebook to thinking smarter, acting faster, and living with the comforting knowledge that your wealth is secure.
The global elites don't want this book to exist. Their plan to herd us like sheep to the slaughter when a global crisis erupts - and, of course, to maintain their wealth - works only if we remain complacent and unaware. Thanks to The Road to Ruin, we don't need to be.

2nd listening- there is enough here for me to study chap 1-8 in detail and follow the depth of Jim's insights, to really think through The contrast between current theory : equilibrium model , Keynesian economics , monetarism, floating exchange rates , free trade, globalization, and fiat currency versus the the actual reality of ; complexity theory of various system, conditional probability, neomercatilism, behavioral economics and psychology, gold as currency , and the reality of existing currency wars. This is pure genius and I don't want to leave any stone unturned for enlightenment.. I'm looking forward to Jim's next book with even more insights on the update of what's going on and 2018. Jim your making a difference.

My whole adult life I have been questioning our economy. I’ve been questioning common wisdom.
The stock market and our overall economic numbers have never made sense to me. These books explain why my intuition was correct.
This is what ha been going on!
