 This booklet has some good points July 9, 2008

The ideas in this booklet have some ground. I wouldn't swear by the correlation between demorgaphics and Dow Jones Index, but there is some sense. Worth reading to be better prepared for the upcoming events.

This is a great little book that you can read in less than an hour. It's based on the work of Harry S. Dent in Mr. Dent's excellent book The Next Great Bubble Boom. I believe the concept. I think demographics is the most important factor in the economy of the future. The demographics of the United States is very bad. You can't replace 78 million boomers with 48 million Gen Xer's. The Xer's will already have jobs and careers. The numbers of the generation after the Xer's is not good at all. Who will replace the boomers when millions start to retire? Who will replace their spending? Bonds? The author Daniel Arnold talks about bonds on page 47 of his book The Great Bust Ahead. Long term bonds? Nuts! Bonds are just a promise backed my nothing. It's the generational bonds that will be broken. The old people of the future will not be related by blood or race to the young people of the future. Overall, I agree with the author and his computer models, once the huge bulge of the middle aged boomers move through the system and start retiring, markets can only go down. Regards, Keith Renick, Peachtree City, Ga.

I think this author is on to something. I can agree with his point of view because he lays out the facts (from the Government, mind you). The book was written a long while ago, I read it a small while ago, and now it is happening just like he laid it out. What comes next? You have to read it and weep. Or... read it and prepare.

Daniel Arnold has some great information in this easy to read book. However his recommendations for the future are very slim - hence the name of the book implying the heralding of the doom. One important factor that he doesn't mention in the book is the fact that when the collapse happens treasury bonds will be a safety net however having enough food and water at hand will be the order of the day.

The Great Bust Ahead is short and to the point. The author makes a direct, reasoned prediction based on consisely presented data. After presupposing a conclusion he explains much the way a prosecutor would before a jury. I highly recommend this title to anyone interested. My only complaint is the clear lack of suggestions to protect ones financial interests. Although, in the author's defense, that would likely consume a book many times this one's length.
