'If you are curious about what the financial Götterdämmerung might look like you've certainly come to the right place' Forbes

Financial expert, investment advisor and New York Times bestselling author James Rickards reveals how the global elite are darkly concealing a coming catastrophe from investors, whilst protecting themselves from the fallout.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I enjoyed this book a lot more than expected. Some very well researched points that lead you to question what we currently take as given. The historical context gives us some great examples of the book's rationale. Well worth a listen.

I really enjoyed this book. It's nice to know how the polical and financial elite have and continue to manipulate the small end of town (you and me). There is a reason for major political change. it is long overdue. Brace yourselves for the crash of 2018-25

Excellent and timely account of systemic risk

Extremely knowledgable author that reinforces his views with history and science.
His views differ slightly from books by other authors I have read and I welcomed his view and history and science regarding the economy. I highly recommend this audiobook as an easy way to listen to a book that would take me a few days to read.
It's also great to hearing the voice of the author as you progress through the chapters.

Expert on the economy
