I guess if you have the money now is the time to start looking for those future investments.

Another know-it-all. I don't know a lot about the economy, but for him to say that the collapse in commercial real estate will be much worse than has happened in the mortgage market leads me to believe that he doesn't know any more than I do.

My guess is that he has a vested interest in fearmongering--like maybe a book for sale?

As stated below....he has a pretty good track record of the past 30 years.
I really think the current financial mess is worst than they are letting on.
I forgot who but one senator referred to the current crisis as a "financial holocaust"

700USD to kick start the recovery? Ask the President if he will take a check. This one is on me.

Do some research on Gerald Celente. Unfortunately, his track record for predicting trends has been pretty solid for almost 30 years.

Mike, Al & Greg- you guys are dead on.

I have been trying to avoid posting in this thread. I think I will continue to read along before commenting further.

I'm not ready to throw myself off the Tobin Bridge yet.

I agree that we need to innovate and start manufacturing tangible 'products' again here in the US. Education in the sciences needs to be encouraged.

Self-fulfilling prophecy. You believe it, it will happen.

Totally agree. The media is not helping in all this with the constant fear mongering.
