From the book jacket:
Oil prices and commodities surging. Real estate tumbling.



Trillions rushing into stock and bond markets. Taxes jumping, America staggering and a pension crisis gripping 11 million Canadians.



Between now and 2015 investors, homeowners and savers will hardly know what hit them. If you’re not prepared for higher taxes, the incredible fallout from the Boomers or crashing house prices, you’re not paying attention. The road ahead is paved with change. Already so many people are losing their way.



In ‘Money Road’ financial guru Garth Turner explains why the global financial crash did not end in 2010, and what this means for stock markets, home values, gold, your paycheque and your retirement. Like no other Canadian guide yet, this one book is packed with hands-on strategies and tools you cannot afford to ignore.

· The secrets of contrarian investing, analysis and stock selection.

· Why real estate will fall and how to be a vulture when it does.

· The looming Boomer crisis. Even if you are 60, it’s not too late.

· Slashing taxes, tax-free pensions and how to deduct your mortgage

· How to make a perfect portfolio. Why many ETFs won’t cut it anymore.

· Investing in stocks, bonds with zero risk. Tax shelters that are too good to last.

· Over a hundred strategies specifically for Canadians.

Very interesting book. Anyone read any of his stuff?

He used to pitch squirrel recipes and buying backup generators, batteries, etc. (from his site, of course). Now a year or two later, he conveniently does not mention that and mocks the doom and gloomers.

He makes some interesting points but keep your head on your shoulders.

He does have some good ideas, but he is to narrow minded, and is in the business of selling books.
