CM-18 – Spot the Coming Financial Crisis – without a Crystal Ball (Chaos Monitaur)

in #money7 years ago (edited)

According to David McWilliams, we are now in a (scary) “brave new world of return-free risk.” You read that right. “Return-free.” How weird is that.    

He outlines, verbally and graphically, several myths on which our current bubble is based.   

  • Myth 1 – The complexity of modern banking and finance makes it impossible to spot an oncoming financial crisis.   
  • Myth 2 – The brainy people involved in high finance will understand the danger, causing a drop in share prices.   
  • Myth 3 – We learn from our mistakes.   
  • Myth 4 – This time is different.   

He stated that “Our free-market system actually encourages bad behavior.” Which will not surprise anyone who has been awake at any time over the past 20 years or more.   

McWilliams also makes a few bold statements about the real causes of a systemic collapse. Watch the 5-minute video to hear for yourself.   His conclusion … “We have a long, long way to fall.”
