Episode Description
The stock market collapse of 2000 wiped out over two-thirds of the value of the Nasdaq Index and decimated the hopes and dreams of millions of Americans. That event prompted this week’s special guest Michael Panzner to write his first bearish book, Financial Armageddon. Written in 2007, that book proved eerily prophetic in predicting the economic crisis we now face in the aftermath of the Lehman Brothers collapse in September 2008. The outcome of Financial Armageddon is a bankrupt nation that will leave Americans with no choice but to endure a significantly lower standard of living for years to come. Panzner’s latest book, "When Giants Fall," provides a vision of a future where the U.S. will no longer police the world or make good on its retirement promises to millions of Americans. Panzner warns that the only way we Americans can survive will be by changing the way we live our lives. He provides some practical advice along those lines that you cannot afford to miss.

Jay Taylor has been able to more than double his newsletter’s model portfolio from 2000 to the present even as the S&P 500 was in the process of losing 50% of its value!
The insights provided to Jay came from a history professor in 1967 who advised Jay that when countries go off a gold or silver standard, hard economic times are sure to follow because nations begin to think they do not need to work hard and save to enjoy a better life. Indeed there is no free lunch and a gold standard reminds people of that every day.
Jay watched his professor’s prophetic words come true when in 1971, President Nixon completely detached the dollar from gold. Not surprising to Jay, the price of gold skyrocketed in the late 1970s as inflation wiped out vast amounts of wealth from average Americans. To protect his own wealth Jay began to invest in gold and gold mining shares and in 1981 he began sharing his success and insights in his newsletter. In 1981 Jay began writing a subscription newsletter that has earned his subscribers countless thousands of dollars over the years.
Jay’s insights as to the real cause of our problems has enabled him to find investment strategies that work. Diagnose a problem correctly and you have a chance for success. Diagnose a problem incorrectly as the establishment does and you are sure to fail.
