Crash Proof 2.0

How to Profit from the Economic Collapse

De: Peter D. Schiff

Narrado por: Sean Pratt

The economic and monetary disaster, which seasoned Wall Street prognosticator Peter Schiff warned of in the best-selling first edition of Crash Proof, is no longer hypothetical - it is here today. And while most people believe that the economic collapse is over, the reality is that it has only just begun. That's why he's returned with Crash Proof 2.0.

For more than a decade, Schiff has not only observed the U.S. economy, but also helped his clients restructure their portfolios to reflect his outlook. What he sees today is a nation facing a growing economic storm - brought on by bursting bubbles and growing federal, personal, and corporate debt - that will only continue to intensify as the U.S. government refuses to allow market forces to repair the damage.

Crash Proof 2.0 picks up right where the first edition - which clearly foresaw the bursting of the real-estate bubble, credit crunch, and the insolvency of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac - left off and includes much more up-to-the-minute analysis and advice. This timely guide takes into account the dramatic economic shifts that are reshaping America and provides you with valuable insights that will allow you to protect yourself, as well as prosper, during the difficult times that lie ahead.

Throughout, Schiff explains the factors that will affect your future financial stability - from the bubble in bond prices and collapse of the dollar to surging long-term interest rates and run-away inflation - and offers a specific three-step plan to battle today's economic downturn and tomorrow's market mayhem.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Schiff was warning us about our fragile economic foundation long before the first cracks started to appear. There are plenty of market cheerleaders out there, but if you want advice from a market realist who has been proven right again and again, listen to this audiobook." (Glenn Beck)

Crash Proof 2.0

Masterpiece.One of the most brilliant minds in Economics. I never miss a Podcast of Peter Schiff.Sad that so many people are blind to these Economic and Political facts.

update to 3.0

great advice for the still coming crash. there should be an update for a ten year later advise .

Watch of the the screeds and the shills

The first half of the book is a screed. The second half is a shill. Chicken little, is the sky falling? Never worry! He is there to take his 2% fee when you follow the advice in his book! It’s good to listen to this book, so you can know what the paranoiacs are experiencing. Financial advice should be free from emotion — this book, it is far, far from that.

Phenomenal

A must read for anyone wanting to understand the structural layout of what is going on in American economics today!

actual advise

most books give hints around what to do but this gives a doable plan that can be researched

Sound advice based on common sense.

If I had followed Peter Schiff's advice when I listened to Crash Proof when it was first released I would probably be pretty happy with the current state of my portfolio instead of pretty unhappy that I lost more than half of it. Well, I'm listening now.

This is the first book, updated at the end of each chapter. Timely info based on sound money economics.

Peter has stood the test of time. His predictions in 1.0 we're mostly on the mark. More importantly, his overall strategy has been proven correct for anyone that is investing for the long-term.

Paul Krugman fans turn back now,.. unless you want to hear the truth about how big government will continue to drag us all down the Road to Serfdom.

Well, hind-sight being 20/20 and all; I am following his advice now.

An insightful description on the economy

What did you love best about Crash Proof 2.0?

How the author broke down the housing crisis and economic disaster we encountered.

Who was your favorite character and why?

N/A

What does Sean Pratt bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Sean Pratt is a good narrator, sometimes that is hard to find with audible books.

What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?

Use as a history of the housing and bank collapse with an economic point of view.

Any additional comments?

Understand that some of Schiff's political point of views and ideals come out in this book. It is not as bad as some of his others. Once you get past him telling you how right he was and how no one listed to him as well as the several plugs for his one company it is pretty good. Do not use this book for the modern economic condition but a history lesson that one could possibly learn from if the government does not fix our tax and spending problem.

Advice is still relevant

The information in this book is still relevant even though the updates were written in 2009. Peter's advice is timeless.

Crash proof 2.0

Excellent book,, excellent narration.

Thought provoking, @ very disturbing.

Great breakdown of the facts and insight

Peter Schiff is able to clearly articulate the cause and effects of inflation in the US the ongoing devaluation of the dollar and how everyone can put a plan to mitigate exposure to these risks to reduce impact to them. I found his 2009 updates somewhat amusing, almost like an adults version of "I told you so". In any case, the audio book was informative and educational and would recommend it.
