Conclusion
PREDICTIONS COME TRUE
There are three points I want to make. These three points will explain why this book, Why We Want You To Be Rich, is more relevant today than when it was first released in 2006.
Point #1:
In 2004, when Donald Trump and I first got together, we found out we shared the same concerns. These shared concerns caused us to write this book. Some of these concerns are:
1. A falling U.S. dollar and how a falling dollar would wipe out savers and the wealth of the middle class.
2. The rise in the price of oil. As world consumption of oil increases the price of oil keeps going up. Oil affects everything, which means everything becomes more expensive. Again, this affects savers and the middle class.
3. Excessive debt. Not only is the consumer in debt, so is the U.S. government. Today, the world is spinning from the fall out of the sub-prime credit mess.
4. 401(k) plans and mutual fund companies ripping off their investors. Soon after this book was first published, the Wall Street Journal wrote an article validating our concerns.
Point #2:
