Product Description A practical guide to preparing for the next phase of the financial meltdown From the authors who were the first to predict Phase I of our current economic downturn-in their landmark 2006 book, America's Bubble Economy-comes their insightful sequel discussing their predictions for the next phase of the Bubble Economy. It may seem like the worst has come and gone, but it hasn't. With their proven track record of accurate predictions-which most financial professionals and economists missed-the authors explain how and why the next phase of the financial meltdown is about to hit. Things are not going back to how they were before. Instead, we are moving through uncharted territory, with new challenges and opportunities that few people can anticipate. Written in a straightforward and accessible style, Aftershock shows readers how to seek safety and profits in these dynamic economic conditions. - Discusses how to protect assets, businesses, and jobs before and during the second wave of financial meltdown
- Provides clear and accurate advice on how to profit from the collapsing bubbles
- Offer focused guidance regarding real estate, which will continue to be a pressing concern for many
The authors' first book was chosen by Kiplinger's as one of the 30 Best Business Books of 2006, and its accuracy has been hailed by Paul Farrell of Dow Jones MarketWatch when he said "America's Bubble Economy's Predictions, though ignored, were accurate." Don't miss out on these time tested author's proven advice for how to mange your money during the coming financial meltdown.

have read several books about economy and... March 13, 2010 overtaxed Allen (boston) aftershock was excellent. I compared what this book said to end the fed, crashproof, crashproof 2.0, don't start revolution without me, and shadows of power.
All of them agree that we cannot continue to borrow from other countries to finance this massive debt that we are continually running up. All of them are saying that we will experience massive inflation and other undesirable consequences.
What I liked about aftershock was it had the bubbles explained in details. I agree that 4 popped and have been temporarily re-inflated. And they will burst making a bigger POP. The last two are the dollar and govt debt. Its happening in Greece, happened in Zimbabwe, and throughout history no fiat dollar has survived as long as the dollar which is a note. Few people know what a fiat currency is :-(
The question that remains somewhat unanswered is where to park assets for preservation and not so much for a gain. I do not see it in real estate nor stocks. I question if the plunge protection team is keeping the stocks up (& precious metals down) and this is why the fed reserve is not audited. But that is off topic.
The only chance we have of saving the dollar is a full audit of the federal reserve (end the fed by Dr. Ron Paul explains it quite well). And probably shutting the fed res down. The fed is allowing the Washington politicians from both parties to spend our children's and grandchildren's futures away. We need PAYGO now and not years from now when we are forced to live within our means.
I gave this book a 5 star rating. I would rank all of the ones I listed above at at least a 4.5 stars. I recommended this book to friends followed by crashproof 2.0 (by Peter Shiff who is running in Conn for office - I see Dodds decided to not debate him and retire instead hmmmm) and shadows of power by Perloff (to read how these economic problems were set up in 1913 by President Wilson)..
I wish more people would read and be informed of what is going on with the country and their wallets and their futures.
Drop Everything March 9, 2010 Scott D. Hanson (NoDak) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
No matter what else you are doing or plan to be doing, drop everything else and read this book. When you buy this book - get 20 copies because you will want everyone you know to read it also. Very easy read with vivid guidance. Arguments are compelling and well supported. Note to authors: Get rid of the shaded box on pages 107-108. This one ancillary item negates any conviction many readers may harbor that you have good judgment. (why tick off 56% of your readers with a statement that adds nothing to the book?)
A MUST READ FOR WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN IN THE NEAR FUTURE March 8, 2010 CAPTAINPHIL (FLORIDA,USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a book that is a must read for anyone who does not have a plan for the near future. These folks were accurate before and I am afraid what they say is going to be accurate now. I would recommend this book and the information they provide as a manual for survival when things get unpleasant in the future. If you follow the suggestions you will come out on top.
empty promises March 7, 2010 Judith Preece (Parrish, FL USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I read the book 3 times in one weekend. I really liked it alot. The only problem I am having is, all through the book it makes reference to it's web page and blog. Well, I have been waiting since January for any info. to be on either of the two. There are about 6 comments on the blog, none of which have been discussed. There is no information at all from these authors and they said there would be. I don't know if anyone else has cared to check this out. I expected much more from this group. They seemed like they were on the ball, but promises, promises, promises....
An excellent word of warning March 7, 2010 Stacy (McKinney, TX USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Aftershock is a wonderful tool to see the bubbles in our econony. If you don't see them, you can't prepare for the results of them collapsing. Everyone should read it and decide how they will prepare for whats coming.
