Story
Are mass violence and catastrophes the only forces that can seriously decrease economic inequality? To judge by thousands of years of history, the answer is yes. Tracing the global history of inequality from the Stone Age to today, Walter Scheidel shows that inequality never dies peacefully. Inequality declines when carnage and disaster strike and increases when peace and stability return. The Great Leveler is the first book to chart the crucial role of violent shocks in reducing inequality over the full sweep of human history around the world.

Story
The current crisis is not like 2008 or even 1929. The New Depression that has emerged from the COVID pandemic is the worst economic crisis in US history. Most fired employees will remain redundant. Bankruptcies will be common, and banks will buckle under the weight of bad debts. Deflation, debt, and demography will wreck any chance of recovery, and social disorder will follow closely on the heels of market chaos. The happy talk from Wall Street and the White House is an illusion. The worst is yet to come.

This is an updated version of the book that accurately predicted the global stock market crash of 2008, the bursting of the real estate bubble, and Ben Bernanke's unprecedented overreaction via quantitative easing programs. First published in 2008, the book quickly became a best seller not just for its timely insight into precious metals investment but for its amazingly accurate prediction of a "roller-coaster crash" - the manipulated whipsaw between inflation, deflation, and back again.

A balanced look at prepping without the Fear Porn
This book is a balanced look at prepping without the authors overdoing the Fear Porn. No repeating references financial armageddon, no dwelling on religious apocalyptic scenarios. Just some practical tips on how to build (and join) your community, remain self-sustaining, prosperous and live a fuller life in uncertain times where global resources are likely to become less available than they are today.

Fresh prespective
I'd recommend Crash Course first, to set the context. This was fairly heavily focused on establishing a homestead-style life, although by no means exclusively. There is also a strong coaching framework theme running throughout..and it maybe a little light on statistics, but all in all a very useful resource in preparing for future societal and economic turbulence.

A book for affluent preppers
Any additional comments?
Overall it is a decent book with exceptional narration for an author, but I was nevertheless a little disappointed. The material does not go into specific homesteading skills but instead directs one toward lifestyle changes and a different way of thinking, which are just as important as skill sets and really are the first steps one should take in moving towards a sustainable life. However, the book was unfortunately biased towards an affluent audience, it being the only sustainability type of book I've come across that discusses a therapist and a life coach....seriously?! I may be overreacting, but the testimonials made me want to gag! The letters sounded edited (maybe they weren't), but what galled me was all but one or two of the testimonials were from those who obviously had abundant financial resources to set up elaborate...and expensive...homesteads, giving this whole section of the book an exclusive air that left me a bit depressed. Having grown up poor on the classic small family farm in the midwest (father a farmer, mother a school teacher) where we modestly lived and breathed nearly all the points mentioned in this book, the testimonials just left a bad taste in my mouth.

Live like you want to make a difference.
Where does Prosper! rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I have read several books pertaining this subject matter. Very few of them are as filled with information that can aid you in preparing for and navigating through the changes that may lie ahead. I hope to never be surprised by things I did not have an opportunity to prepare for. This book helps you make preparations for the best possible outcomes regardless of what happens. I am on my second time through the book and still gleaning additional insights. Repetition is how we learn.
What did you like best about this story?
Prosper! forecasts a potential for a problematic future but does not dwell on it. It offers solid ideas on how you can build for a great future regardless of how the future presents itself.
What does Chris Martenson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Genuine caring for giving you useful tools to build with.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Either their own or mine.
"The next 20 years won't be anything like the last 20 years." or
"Live like you want to make a difference."
Any additional comments?
A great cerebral investment. I think the payback will be exponential though things exponential are not shown in the most positive light in the book, I think exponential payback is a good thing. In fact it may be a way to Prosper!

Some good advice given - new look on things - different perspective on future planning but just too much doom and gloom and "end of worldy" for me.
