This morning we had to face some hard truths. The economy's beginning to show its true colors.
Last month the economy added just 142,000 jobs. August was revised substantially lower to just 136,000 jobs. Analysts were expecting 200,000-plus jobs growth like it would go on forever.
Of course, I'm not the least bit surprised. You know I've seen this coming.
I've spent the last 30 years developing something no economist thought possible.
In fact, I'm not really an economist. I'm an entrepreneur in economics.
Entrepreneurs are almost like criminals. They attack society's norms. Both are creative, and even many criminals become famous for what they do – like Jesse James, Butch Cassidy, the Sundance Kid, or even mob bosses like Al Capone.
The difference, of course, is that entrepreneurs attack society and business in a constructive manner.
My breakthrough research has shown that you and I can predict the key economic trends that will impact the rest of your lifetime today.
It took me 10 years to get my first major insights, and now 30 years to perfect a long-term model for our economy.
Most economists tell you that they may be able to predict the trends into the next election, and most of them can't even do that. But no one, they say, can predict the future beyond that…
I beg to differ!
I got my first breakthrough indicator in 1988: a 46-year lag on the birth index for the peak in spending for new generations, like the massive baby boom.
How simple is that?
Knowing that – along with a 20-year lag for workforce entry that best forecast inflation trends and interest rates – I was able to predict the mega boom of the 1990s into 2007 with its falling interest rates.
After 2007, I saw deflation – and look what happened! I simultaneously predicted the collapse of Japan when everyone thought they would take over the world. Look what happened there!
