In the 1990s, Vickers and his customers were early investors in such companies as Starbucks Coffee, Cisco Systems, and Amazon.com, to name a few. Mr. Vickers called the top of the equities markets in 2000, and in 2008, during the worst market year since 1987, a private fund initially capitalized by Mr. Vickers enjoyed returns of 63%. A frequent guest on financial television such as \u003ci\u003eGlenn Beck\u003c\/i\u003e, CNBC, Bloomberg, Fox Business, and BNN in Canada, Mr. Vickers has also been quoted in the \u003ci\u003eWall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/i\u003e, and other widely read publications.  We are at a crossroads ofimmense proportions. Nationally,internationally, and globally, we are living in a manner that is absolutely, unconditionally, irrevocably unsustainable. Our global economic stability is in jeopardy, our planet's ecosystems are under attack, and our health is deteriorating. Huge changes are coming whether or not we want them, whether or not we are ready for them. How can we lead the charge to introduce innovations and solutions to meet the inevitable challenges of new kinds of economic forces? Damon Vickers believes that by anticipating social trends and detecting potentially profitable areasfor investing, we might still be able to profit whilesupporting a sustainable future.  \u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eThe Day After the Dollar Crashes\u003c\/i\u003e, Vickers presents a possible time line for the crash of the U.S. dollar and the subsequent collapse of global markets. He outlines the New World Order that may take shape over the next decade and the impact it could have on nations, businesses, and individuals. Perhaps more importantly, he tells how investors can weather the coming economic collapse and position themselves for the coming global transformation. By changing our expectations and taking action to get in alignment with reality, Vickers shows, we can steadily profit in our investments. He suggests both globally sustainable and socially responsible types of investments, including investing in currencies of countries that are backed by real assets like resources and technologies that expand our sustainable energy and food sources.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe time for denial and waiting for someone else to fix everything is over.
