We’ve Just Witnessed Four of the Worst Economic Bubbles in History Burst in Catastrophic Succession . . . Crippling Our Nation and Robbing You of Tens of Thousands of Dollars!

The ONLY Economists Who Predicted This Mess Now Foresee Two More Bubbles Directly Ahead!

Prepare Now, as Every Penny You Own May Fall Victim to the . . .

• Will Your job (or any job) be safe in the Coming Years?
• Will the Stock Market Plunge 50% (or More) — Taking Your Retirement With It?
• Will Our Entire Economy Collapse When Communist China Stops Writing Us Blank Checks?

The Shocking Answers and the Step-By-Step Blueprint for Your Financial Salvation Are
REVEALED IN THIS MUST-READ BOOK!

Yours Free With No Strings Attached!

No charge. It is 100% FREE.

The message in this book is so critical that I’m also filming an online broadcast with four very important people: Fox News analyst Dick Morris, Aftershock co-author Robert Wiedemer, former Libertarian vice presidential nominee Wayne Allyn Root, and international currency expert Sean Hyman.

We will be discussing the powerful revelations in Aftershock and the specific actions you can take to fortify your finances.

And that’s free, too!

But you must hurry. I originally could only get my hands on 5,000 copies. I offered those up to readers and they were taken within hours. So I contacted the publisher and they did a private printing of additional copies of Aftershock for me (at a pretty sizable fee). And they are almost gone now as well.

Only those who get there hands on this 100% free book can receive an instant, private airing of this powerful webinar I recently filmed with Dick Morris. I’m limiting the attendance because I want only those who are taking this situation seriously and who are willing to become active participants to attend.

The timing could not be more crucial.

Having a false sense of hope is a fruitless endeavor right now. One that could put you in the poorhouse.
Do not fall victim to the mainstream media’s trumped-up climate of economic optimism.
Disregard the government’s 24/7 propaganda machine.
And give no credence to the misleading hype from Wall Street.

Aftershock predicts that the two largest bubbles, which have not even hit us yet, are just around the corner. And after the authors’ previous book predicted the four bubbles that just hit us — I’m not taking this warning lightly.

But what if you could fight this upcoming crisis head-on?

What if you had a specific, step-by-step blueprint that could make you wealthier than ever . . . multiplying your nest egg many times over — even in the face of overwhelming adversity?

Look at this moment as if you have been given an early warning for an impending disaster . . .

This is a turning point.

When an earthquake strikes, the immediate damage can be immense. Foundations crumble, walls crack, and cities teeter on the edge of collapse . . .

And what comes next can be equally destructive:

They occur for weeks after an initial earthquake. More buildings fall . . . city blocks are leveled . . . and even more lives are ruined.

Our economy mirrors this chain of events.

The stock bubble . . . the housing bubble . . . the consumer-spending bubble . . . and the private-debt bubble . . .

Each one acted as the equivalent of an economic earthquake. Leveling banks, destroying jobs, and wiping out the savings of millions of Americans.

We have been taken literally to the brink — because we had no time to recover between the earthquakes.

The danger has not dissipated. And the damage has not been repaired.

It has only been covered up with a patchwork of stimulus programs and bailouts.

Sure . . . Capitol Hill’s megabillion-dollar handouts gave the stock market some juice. We’ve certainly witnessed that firsthand during the past 10 months.

But, the apparent rebirth of Wall Street is nothing more than final death throes.

Soon the “recovery” CNN is talking about will be exposed as a sham . . . a fake . . . something that never was. And when the aftershocks come, the consequences will be disastrous.

Why is the media ignoring this upcoming threat?

Why is no one telling you about it?

Because they don’t even know it’s coming.

They sure didn’t bother to warn you in 2006 to get out of the market . . . protect your home’s value . . . defend your job . . . and strengthen your personal finances.

After all, Ben Bernanke and Alan Greenspan didn’t see the first four bubbles. Heck, they helped create them.

Are CNBC “experts” going to tell you tomorrow morning the truth about these next two bubbles exploding? They massively missed the boat years back. I wouldn’t expect them to help you now.

And even the most prescient of economists failed to predict the true gravity of what would eventually transpire over the last few years.

Except for a Trio of Revolutionary Minds . . .

They Predicted All Four Bubbles in 2006

I’m also including free subscriptions to three of my most valuable investment newsletters!

That’s how seriously I’m taking the threats to our
already shaken and unstable economy.

This is nothing less than a war on your wealth.

And I’m going to help you level the playing field!

But you must hurry!

As I just mentioned, the first 5,000 books were snatched up within hours. And the private print run I negotiated with the publisher on the second (and final) batch of books is down to a quickly fleeting few copies. Plus, only those who claim a free copy get the webinar, its companion Web site, and the free subscriptions.

Claim your copy of Aftershock now at no charge!

I wholeheartedly endorse this book! It warns you about the next two major bubbles.

These are the big ones!

According to the authors, if these events transpire, they’ll make the last four years look like a walk in the park. While I don’t agree with every one of their predictions, I think it is worth considering what could happen.

• 10% Unemployment? — Try 40-60%!
• A Few Banks Fail? — What If the Entire Banking System Collapses?
• A Weakened Dollar? — How About No Dollar! Imagine a One-World Currency!
• Scared of Double-Digit Inflation? — Try to Comprehend Triple-Digit Hyper-Inflation!
• Goodbye Social Security — Hello Social Welfare!
• The Recent Stock Market Surge? — The Future 50% (or more) Plunge!

Could these events occur? They very well might. At the very least, it’s a good idea to take in as many opinions as possible before coming to your own conclusions.

But judging by the authors’ track records — I wouldn’t bet against their predictions. I’d prepare for them.

In These Times When Everyone Promotes His
Own Personal Agenda, We’ve Never Needed the
Truth More . . . Even If It IsTough to Swallow.

That’s why it’s so critical you get your hands on this book. And it’s also why I’m going to send you a copy of it for free.

If you want to take all of the necessary precautions to protect your wealth and that of your friends, family, and neighbors, you must reserve one of the remaining copies I’ve secured.

Make sure you are one of the fortunate few not only to survive the mayhem fiscally — but also come out well ahead.

It will cost you nothing to claim a copy of Aftershock plus everything else I’m giving away. Go here now!

So how did we get here? How did our country fall so far?

72 Hour Emergency Survival Kits

There are many types of disasters that a 72 Hour Emergency Survival Kit is buit for: floods, fires, earthquakes, hurricanes and tornadoes, to name just a few. Government and Relief Agencies estimate that after a major disaster, it could take up to three days (72 Hours) for relief workers to reach some areas.

In such a case, your 72 Hour Emergency Survival Kit could mean the difference between life and death. In other disasters affecting your family, a 72 Hour Emergency Survival Kit means the difference between having a miserable experience or one that’s like a pleasant family camp out.

*Important to know*

1. Your kit should be in a portable container located near an exit of your house. This is so you can grab it on your way out of the house in a serious emergency. Do not overload your kit–you may have to carry it long distances to reach safety or shelter.
2. Each family member should have their own kit with food, clothing and water. Distribute heavy items between kits.
3. Enclose the extra clothing, matches, personal documents, and other items damageable by smoke or water in plastic to protect them. If it’s raining when you have to evacuate, you will appreciate the dry clothes.
4. Keep a light source in the top of your kit, so you can find it quickly in the dark.
5. Personalize your kit. Make sure you fill the needs of each family member.
6. Inspect your kit at least twice a year.

Rotate food and water. Check children’s clothing for proper fit. Adjust clothing for winter or summer needs. Check expiration dates on batteries, light sticks, warm packs, food and water.

7. Consider the needs of elderly people as well as those with handicaps or other special needs. For example: for babies, store diapers, washcloth, ointment, bottles and pacifiers, and other special supplies.

---

A crisis or emergency is a high stress time for everyone. It is especially important to have a 72 Hour Emergency Survival Kit with high energy foods available during these times. Food that is high in calories (even empty calories) is recommended for these times. If you plan ahead, you can have meals that are not only high in energy, but also nutritious.

You can live several days without food if you have water to drink, but you won’t be very comfortable when you are used to eating three meals a day plus snacks. Besides the nutritional benefit you gain from the food, there is also a positive psychological benefit of doing things the way you did before a disaster. Eating three meals a day will help make the stressful time seem more like normal.

Food will probably be provided at an emergency shelter for you and your family, but government officials and relief agencies usually take 72 hours to get set up. You have the responsibility to be self reliant and plan your own meals for those three days. Foods that are lightweight, compact, and require little preparation are the most suitable for your 72 hour emergency survival kit. Since an emergency situation is not the time to try out new and unusual foods that your family is unaccustomed to, you should try out your emergency foods before you need them. Whenever possible, stick to simple tastes that you are used to. Consider these possibilities:

Stress Foods-
Foods that provide sugar energy and are comfort foods are good ones to pack in your 72 hour emergency survival kit. These types of food include chocolate, hard candy, dry sugar cereal, fruit bars, etc. In high stress situations your body requires a higher caloric intake, not just nutrition. For those who can’t eat sugar, pack alternative high caloric food such as peanut butter, dried fruit, and sugar-free candy.

Compressed Food Bars-
Compressed food bars include granola bars, trail bars, and high calorie food bars that are sealed for long term storage. These are lightweight, nutritious, and high in calories, making them a good choice for your 72 hour emergency survival kit.

Survival Drink Mixes-
These types of drink mixes are high in protein, vitamin and mineral content, such as protein drinks, diet drinks, and survival drink mixes. These should be just-add-water-mixes, so you must remember to store extra water just for mixing these drinks. Remember that any diet drink mixes you include should be high in protein and not just for weight loss.

Trail Mixes-
Trail mixes can be made of ingredients such as granola, raisins, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, or chocolate chips. They are very tasty and full of energy and nutrition. You can make your own trail mix to accommodate your family’s taste, but be aware that it could become rancid if you try to store it for a long period of time. Storing trail mix in your refrigerator or freezer is a good way to preserve its shelf life.

Dried Foods-
Dried foods, such as fruit and meat (jerky) are excellent additions to your 72 hour emergency survival kit. They are tasty, nutritious and satisfying, and they can make up a part of a meal.

Freeze-Dried Foods-
Freeze dried foods are probably the best tasting, most “normal” things you can pack in your 72 hour emergency survival kit to supply you and your family with a “real” meal. They are lightweight and easy to prepare, but require extra water and some cooking. Plan ahead by storing the water that you need and a way to heat it.

Instant Soups, Meals, & Milk-
Instant soups and meals, (such as cup of noodles, cup of soup, and instant mashed potatoes) are a great way to supplement meals for three days. They are lightweight and easy to pack in your 72 hour emergency survival kit. Instant milk is a good way to make sure you get the calcium you need. These items also require additional water to use.

MRE’s (Meals ready to eat)-
MRE’s, designed for the military, are the easiest meals you can put in your 72 hour emergency survival kit. They have an incredibly long shelf life (up to 10 years when stored at temperatures below 70 deg. F) which makes them an easy solution for a 72 hour emergency survival kit. MRE’s also do not require cooking, water, or any preparation. For more information on MRE’s see the Insight article entitled MRE- Meals Ready to Eat

Snack Foods-
Snack foods are an essential part of a 72 hour emergency survival kit. If you eat snacks during normal times, you will want snacks during emergencies too. Plus snacks are a good way to help relieve the stress of emergency situations. You can store snack-packs of cheese and crackers, packages of crackers or nuts, or peanut butter snacks. MRE snacks are a good way to store snacks because they can be stored for 5 or more years and they taste good.

For Babies or Toddlers-
If you have a nursing baby, you should pack formula in case you aren’t able to nurse because of shock or stress. Include both powdered formula and liquid formula in case water is not available to mix the powdered formula. Include baby food for an older baby or toddler. Instant cereal, fruits, and vegetables are a good choice. Remember to store extra water to reconstitute these items, and to update your 72 hour emergency survival kit as your baby grows.

Equipment and Utensils-
Sometimes when you are planning your food menu, you forget that you need certain utensils to cook and eat with. Essential cooking items include:

• small cooking pots
• spoons, forks, knives, (plastic or metal)
• Sierra cups (metal camping/backpacking cups that you can heat food in or drink from)
• mess kits or camp plates
• napkins or paper towels
• small, trial size of dish soap
• hot pad or wash cloth
• can opener
• waterproof matches or matches in waterproof container
• canned solid fuel and folding stove
• zip lock bags

As you plan your 72 hour survival kit, you must also remember the little extras that make life more comfortable, such as: toilet paper, diapers, wipes, first aid kit, toothpaste, soap, razors, reading material, stress relieving games, and so forth. If you put a little planning into your 72 hour kit, you and your family won’t need to panic when an emergency occurs.

Democracy May Be Ending

EU Warns of Democracy Ending in Greece, Spain and Portugal. Will the U.S. follow the same path? Read this Newsmax.com report from today, Wednesday, 16 June 2010 09:39 AM, written by: Frank McGuire. “Democracy could “collapse” in Greece, Spain and Portugal unless the debt crisis is controlled, the head of the European Commission reportedly has warned.” “Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso recently detailed his “apocalyptic” vision in which crisis-hit countries in southern Europe are jolted by military coups or popular uprisings as interest rates soar and public services collapse because their governments run out of money, the London Daily Mail reported.” “Greece, Spain and Portugal are facing dire problems with their public finances. All three countries have a history of military coups. Greece has been hit by a series of national strikes and riots this year following the announcement of drastic cuts to public spending.” «MORE» ************************************************ We’ve been seeing all of this unfold before our eyes as we watch the evening news. There’s rioting in the streets over budget cuts, lowering of wages and pensions, and disagreements between labor unions and a government that’s running out of money. Are situations in the United States heading us in the same direction? Will labor issues force the American people to break and cause the same reaction as we see in places like Greece? We can hardly believe what we see: the unrest going on around the world over disagreements between the people and their governments. It is all part of the “signs of the times”, as discussed in the scriptures. In Daniel, it speaks about ten and half years of tribulations, beginning in the year of the earthquakes. Is that now? What will our future look like a year from now, even six months from now? It is unnerving to consider everything that we see happening and all that has been predicted to happen. Should we close our eyes and ignore it all, thinking that what we can’t see won’t be real? The truth is, “It Is What It Is”! We can ignore it, fight it, worry about it, or we can do what we can to make our lives more comfortable in the midst of calamity and chaos. I choose to consider the worst, decide on a plan, and implement that plan. If it turns out better than expected, then great; I’m happy and grateful. If it isn’t what I expected and I did not plan correctly, then all I can say is OhWell-ItsOk, I’ve done what I can and after that, I’ll have to depend on the Lord and others within the community to help me. What can we do that’s within our realm of abilities? We can store food and water and non-hybrid seeds for growing food. We can use small greenhouses to grow food on apartment patios and decks–even in our washrooms. We can have emergency supplies on hand, including alternative communications. We can keep our vehicles half-full with gasoline and keep maintenance up to date. What else can we do? Shouldn’t we prepare our families emotionally, spiritually, and physically to handle what might be ahead of us? Shouldn’t we seek counsel from experts? Shouldn’t we engage older family members in our preparations and ask for their input? Ignoring the “handwriting on the wall” by not doing anything is a bad position to be in right now. Denial of reality or ignoring it will cause us to react in default because we have not planned for an event or we have not the means to carry out necessary activities that make a situation easier for us and the family. I read a report last month, but unfortunately I don’t remember where, that the banks will start to fail in June and that, by September 2010, 138,000 banks will fall. If this is true, if this comes to pass, what will you do? How will you take care of the family if the dollar crashes? We don’t know the answers any better than you do. What we do know is that we have the following choices: We can get our houses in order spiritually and physically to handle the unexpected. In other words, the parable of the ten virgins (where 1/2 had enough oil in their lamps to meet the bridegroom, and half were unprepared and ran out of oil) applies to us right now; not only spiritually but physically as well. We need to store food and water that can be transported if we have to leave our homes. We also need a large container of water (55 gallon drums) filled with water if we are stuck where we are now. We would be wise to have stored seeds and economy or portable greenhouses to plant and grow our own food. We need to learn how to do without. We need to learn how to prepare food with scraps or to be creative with cooking more “mother inventions”. We need to learn to mend, sew by hand, or repair clothing and to take care of the assets that we have now. We need to pay attention to our health so we don’t have to obtain medical attention. We need to know how to live in alternative shelters and cook in alternative ways. We need extra money or items to use in trade. We need to offer our services for trade in the community. We need to have a change in our thinking and look at the future with a different pair of eyes. If we choose not to think about these things and we do nothing about it, our lives will be more miserable when things get worse. It will not matter that we don’t believe in the scriptures because, if the scriptures are true and we are living in the times that have been foretold, then it will all happen. We need to accept this fact and change the way we do things or we will reap the consequences. “It is what it is” right? My associate and I suggest that you check out our store at Shop.OurDayShopping.com and see if we can help you with your planning. We’ve already done the work for you and put together items that we needed ourselves and that we knew you would need also. We think you will see something to help you reach your goals. In addition, you have the benefit of ONE-STOP SHOPPING. Please take these warnings seriously! I truly believe we are in very perilous times. It’s much like us being on the Titanic (which is NOT supposed to sink) and now we are about to hit an iceberg. One minute we are all fine and enjoying living our lives as usual, then the next we are in frigid waters and fighting for our lives.

Dangerous Times Ahead

“Financial Meltdown of
Our Nation Because
of Excessive Debt”

How Prepared Are YOU?

Many of your fellow readers are already taking control of their finances and are now preparing for the dangerous times ahead.

Let me share with you a portion of an email I received recently. Perhaps you will find it helpful in making your plans for future investments.

People like Fox News analyst Dick Morris and CEO of Newsmax, Christopher Ruddy, have gathered together an esteemed panel to discuss the economy and how to safeguard investments and even prosper during these difficult times.

These people are in a position to know what is going on in the financial world and they are telling us that we need to protect our assets and prepare for the worst.

First, let me assure you that I have nothing to do with this offer, I receive nothing for referring you, and I receive NO proceeds from your purchase. I am telling you about this offer because I believe that YOU should have access to this information also.

Aaron DeHoog, Financial Publisher of Newsmax and Moneynews writes: “At great cost to Newsmax, I purchased more than 10,000 copies of the book Aftershock to GIVE AWAY — 100% free (just pay shipping)!”

“They were gone in a matter of days . . . so I purchased another 10,000. Those, too, were snatched up just days later. So, I arranged for another shipment. There are only a few copies left . . . and this is your last chance to claim one for yourself.”

“If you were to go to Amazon or Barnes & Noble, you would pay around $28 retail for this book. (By the way, both of these retailers are out of copies!)”

I don’t know if these claims are true or if the book is worth ordering. I just know that you need to do something right now to protect your family and I thought that, perhaps, this book will help you do that.

By clicking here you can get a copy of Aftershock as well as an instant, private viewing of the Early Warning Wealth Summit for FREE!

I Must Ask, Are You Emotionally, Spiritually, and Financially Prepared for a Financial Collapse or for Whatever is on the Horizon?

The bubble that we have been living in so comfortably is going to burst   . . . the stock market will plunge . . . unemployment will surge to levels matching or exceeding the great depression . . . and the entire financial system will be in total collapse. We cannot begin to imagine the effects this will have on our families.

Are you prepared to handle the kind of turmoil we will experience in the near future?

This scenario is NOT supposition, it is a fact that we cannot change. The past forty years have already set things in motion for this situation to occur.

We are not the only country that will suffer a financial collapse. It will be global and a dominoes affect. Whatever happens to one nation’s economy affects all world economies.

• Do you understand what could be coming?
• Do you know what steps you need to take to prepare?
• Are you prepared to protect your family from the calamity that will arise?
• Do you have food and water stored and emergency supplies to handle a natural disaster?
• Do you have alternative communication devices, such as two-way radios?
• Can you grow your own food?

Please, do not be fooled by what the media is telling you. They keep reporting that the economy is getting better because the White House says it is, but most Americans know that it is NOT.

What we really have is hyper-inflation staring us in the face . . .  we have the death of the middle class projected because Obamanomics redistributes the wealth . . . we have the collapse of the dollar and closing of banks on the horizon . . . we have Congress on a  spending spree that is driving government into SEVERE debt that will reap terrible consequences . . . and we have mother nature kicking up her heels all over the nation and around the world.

The warning signs are all there and some of us are beginning to recognize them. However, our OWN spending habits and debt, which are giving us a false sense of security, will have DIRE consequences as well if we do not stop our reckless spending and change our  habits.

The media isn’t ignoring this threat — THEY JUST DON’T SEE IT COMING!  Nevertheless, you see it coming don’t you?

PLEASE, allow us at OurDayShopping.com to help you prepare right now. Take advantage of our offer for seeds at a huge discount and an extra 10% discount on economy greenhouses.

We have most of the items that you need to prepare your household for the dangerous times ahead. All you have to do is make the decision to put your family’s welfare first, before any other spending.

Now don’t forget that on July 17th our offer expires for an extra 10% off economy greenhouses.

“Take Advantage of Our
Special Offer For
Heirloom Seeds and
Economy Greenhouses”

Now is your OPPORTUNITY to take advantage of our Special Discount for heirloom seeds and economy greenhouses. Its is likely the most important offer you will receive right now, based on the state of the economy, predictions of 138,000 banks closing by September, and the dollar crashing.

Because we’ve had a huge interest in economy greenhouses, we have been asked to extend the deadline for an EXTRA 10% discount from midnight (Eastern time) July 3, 2010 to July 17th and then this offer will no longer be available.

Food Supply Effects of Iceland’s Volcano Eruptions

It seems the only concern most media reports have today about the eruptions of April’s Volcano in Iceland is the cost it has had on travel and tourism. There is little or nothing said about the effects it has had on food distribution and supply.

A cloud of ash covers everything, including farm lands and the food growing in the fields. That means food will be contaminated.I’m sure the ash can be cleaned off from the food but what about the contaminants in ground water and soil. What better reason do you need to grow your food in a controlled environment like your own greenhouse and your own soil and water supply?

If plans and cargo are grounded because of ash getting into engines, then how will the food from around the world be delivered. Since President Obama and Congress are trying to control food growing in America and limit it to only controlled growers, then we can’t buy from the neighborhood fruit and vegetable stands to save money. This also means local grocers cannot purchase from local vendors and suppliers, again raising the cost of food.

Mount St. Helen blew in 1980 and spewed ash for hundreds of miles. Salem Oregon residents reported that, at the time, there was two inches of ash on their cars. The May 18, 1980, eruption was the most destructive in the history of the United States.

“Downwind of the volcano, in areas of thick ash accumulation, many agricultural crops, such as wheat, apples, potatoes, and alfalfa, were destroyed. Many crops survived, however, in areas blanketed by only a thin covering of ash. In fact, the apple and wheat production in 1980 was higher than normal due to greater-than-average summer precipitation. The crusting of ash also helped to retain soil moisture through the summer. Moreover, in the long term, the ash may provide beneficial chemical nutrients to the soils of eastern Washington, which themselves were formed of older glacial deposits that contain a significant ash component. Effects of the ash fall on the water quality of streams, lakes, and rivers were short lived and minor.

“The ash fall, however, did pose some temporary major problems for transportation operations and for sewage-disposal and water-treatment systems. Because visibility was greatly decreased during the ash fall, many highways and roads were closed to traffic, some only for a few hours, but others for weeks. Interstate 90 from Seattle to Spokane, Washington, was closed for a week. Air transportation was disrupted for a few days to 2 weeks as several airports in eastern Washington shut down due to ash accumulation and attendant poor visibility. Over a thousand commercial flights were cancelled following airport closures.

The fine-grained, gritty ash caused substantial problems for internal-combustion engines and other mechanical and electrical equipment. The ash contaminated oil systems, clogged air filters, and scratched moving surfaces. Fine ash caused short circuits in electrical transformers, which in turn caused power blackouts. The sewage-disposal systems of several municipalities that received about half an inch or more of ash, such as Moses Lake and Yakima, Washington, were plagued by ash clogging and damage to pumps, filters, and other equipment. Fortunately, as these same cities used deep wells and closed storage, their water-supply systems were only minimally affected.” Quote from USGS, Science for a changing world.

It is easy to conclude that, in the case of volcanic activity in your area or not, you will be affected in a variety of ways. It only makes sense to consider the affects of world eruptions as well as those in the United States like Yellowstone and Mt. Rainier.

This report is not meant to scare you to death and cause you fear about future calamity; just walking down the street today possibly could be catastrophic to you. The point is that we need to store food and have non-hybrid seeds and small greenhouses to plant and grow our own food in a crisis of any magnitude. In other words, being prepared provides peace of mind.
