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

Loved the audible. Highly recommended for those who want to hear a point of view not commonly voiced in mainstream media, and rethink at least some of their financial decisions.

James Rickards boldly puts answers to various troubling macro economic questions in our time. The sustainability of the endless expansion fueled by money printing, leverage and its atendant moral hazard is put to the test perhaps better than most other writers in similar series. Highly recommended read if finance brings to you more questions than answers

An impressive masterclass in global finance

What about James Rickards’s performance did you like?

Quietly lucid and easy to listen to

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Well researched and support insights on every page from someone deep inside the world of money and currency (you'll soon discover the difference) I constantly had to remind myself that Ian Fleming's James Bond could not have done a better job - main;t because that was fiction. If you want the history of the banking system it's here

Any additional comments?

Fascinating.

Almost (but not quite) beyond belief
