So today we are going to discuss my view of what we can expect from the economy in the next few years and what we can do to prepare for it. I will tell you why I think 2010 is actually going to look pretty decent and on the other side why you shouldn’t take that much comfor in it. Then next week we will take a day to compare my view to the view of many of the experts such as Jim Rodgers and Gerald Celente.

Tune in today to hear…

• Why I think we are about to see a fake recovery followed by a bigger crash
• The stimulus doesn’t kick in until 2010, how it will succeed and how it will fail
• Unemployment is “bottoming” the truth and the lies about that statement
• This coming bubble and collapse is planned, I will explain why there is no other option then this one
• Credit cards can’t fix a debt problem and how that relates to our national deficit
• How the impact of Health Care won’t be seen until late 2011 perhaps longer and the disaster it will create
• The coming 1.5 Trillion Dollar tax increase from the administration that promised not to do it
• How high taxes reduce the amount of tax government collects and what it does to the economy
• Why inflation looks like recovery at the beginning
• Why you need to own at least some silver and or gold
• Land is cheap, go make a low ball offer while you can
• Store food, build your own grocery store at home
• Spend smart don’t horde money, balance your assets
• Place priority of spending on assets with long term value
• Keep some cash, don’t believe the lies about putting all cash into gold right now
• Debt is evil, always in good times and bad
• Never be 100% invested in any item or investment type
• Do not liquidate IRAs and 401ks modify their portfolios but leave the money in the vehicles
• Above all never “freak out”, make smart and strategic spending and saving decision you do have time to act, don’t panic and react to swiftly to concerns
