From the Publisher
It's coming. After almost two decades of unprecedented prosperity, we are on a collison course with tremendous economic, social, and political volatility.
In the hard times ahead, life could be hell--for the unprepared. But if you follow Howard Ruff's advice, you can protect yourself and your family--and even prosper. And the world might even be a better place.
You've probably heard about Y2k, the Year 2000 computer problem. Well, it's real, too real. And it could change the world, not just for a few months after January 1, 2000, but for years to come.
Ruff explains that certain trends, developing for decades, have so weakened us that Y2k will have a much greater impact on your life than the technicians tell us.
Howard Ruff successfully counseled millions of Americans through the economic crisis of the 1970s because he knew that crisis had roots deep in the erosion of our society and its political institutions. Even more so today, America is dangerously vulnerable to internal fault lines just waiting for some precipitating event like Y2k. The millennium crisis will expose the deep, hidden cracks in our civilization's infrastructure.
"How to Prosper During the Hard Times Ahead" exposes the dark clouds of the coming crisis. But it also looks at the silver lining, the opportunities for individual investors and their families--and even for the nation.
With the help of Howard Ruff, you will learn step by step what you must do, not just to protect your family but also to take advantage of the fantastic opportunities that are always found in volatility.
Ruff explains Y2k and the problem it will create in simple, easy-to-understand language. He reveals exactly which dangerous trends, developing for decades, could turn into life-changing events in the wake of Y2k.
Ruff shows how our banking and monetary system is a house of cards that could be blown over by Y2k, how Social Security is a dangerous scam that could be laid bare in the millennium crisis, and how the erosion of the family and the collapse of moral standards have weakened America and made us less able to withstand the collaspe of government infrastructure.
He also tells you how to prepare your family to prosper, even in a worst case scenario. He shows you, in specific detail, the abundant financial opportunities to be found in Y2k.
PLUS he describes the essential early warning signs to look for throughout 1999 that will confirm the crisis is real and on schedule. This book is an essential guide for your safety.
Y2k could be a disaster or a glorious opportunity. Which will it be for you? And for America?
