This is the best overview of American and international economic conditions and projected results I’ve seen. Jim Rickards tells you about banks v credit unions (and his book tells you the best ones to put your m oney in)… he answers a lot of the questions , does it extremely well . He identifies the importance of SDRs – special drawing rights – that allows the IMF to print/create its own money and become the most powerful financial institution on earth. This is a very powerful video. You won’t get bored.
James G. Rickards is an American lawyer, economist, and investment banker. He is a regular commentator on finance, and is the author of The New York Times bestseller Currency Wars: The Making of the Next Global Crisis, published in 2011, and The Death of Money: The Coming Collapse of the International Monetary System, published in 2014.
Rickards graduated from Cape May High School in Cape May, New Jersey in 1969.[1] He graduated from The Johns Hopkins University in 1973 with a B.A. degree with honors and in 1974, from the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies in Washington, D.C. with an M.A.[2] in international economics. He received his Juris Doctor from the University of Pennsylvania Law School and an LL.M in taxation from New York University School of Law.[3]
In 1981, Rickards was involved in the Iran hostage crisis.[4] As general counsel for the hedge fund Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM),[5][6] he was the principal negotiator in the 1998 bailout of LTCM[7] by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
Rickards worked on Wall Street for 35 years.[8] In 2001, he began using his financial expertise to aid the U.S. national security community and the U.S. Department of Defense.[9]
Rickards is now the senior managing director for market intelligence at Omnis, Inc.,[7] a consulting firm.[3] On March 24, 2009, Rickards presented his view at a symposium at Johns Hopkins, that the U.S. dollar is vulnerable to attack from foreign governments through accumulation of gold and establishment of a new global currency.[10] The same week, Zhou Xiaochuan, governor of the People’s Bank of China, called for a new currency to be introduced and operated by the International Monetary Fund to replace the dollar as the basic unit of international commerce.[10]
On September 10, 2009, Rickards testified before the U.S. House of Representatives about the risks of financial modeling, VaR, and the 2008 financial crisis.[11]
On January 29, 2012, on Bob Brinker‘s radio program, Rickards stated his belief that the U.S. has been in a depression since 2007. He backed this assertion by pointing out the existence of a major component of previously seen U.S. depressions, the prolonged high rate of unemployment.
Rickards is a Senior Managing Director of Tangent Capital in New York,[12] and lives in Darien, Connecticut, where he is on the Republican Town Committee.[13]
