When?

The 100 trillion dollar question is; "When will D2Z come?"  It is a natural desire for humans to plan,  to put dates on calendars, to count down, and make ready our affairs.  To ask "When?"

Being not a soothsayer, I don't know.  I have a hunch that it will be sooner rather than later.  Probably much sooner than I am prepared for. 

But D2Z is not predictable, at least not for me.  It is going to surprise us.  Even those of us who have been expecting it for a decade.  And it will likely surprise us with its ferociousness too.

It is important to note that the preparations for D2Z that I advocate (see survive)  will likely not waste your time and money if D2z does not happen for another election term, or if it does not happen at all.  A tax haven, a second citizenship, a home in another country, a load of gold and silver bullion, and a portfolio of resource stocks will likely serve you well regardless.  You may have trouble getting through your stock pile of canned beans.  But hey Dude, beans are good for you!

What do the Great Contrarians Say?

I asked 30 excellent contrarian financial speculators the following question:

"When would you speculate the day will come when the US Dollar drops to zero value?"

When each in turn responds to my query, I will post their predictions on this page.

What Do I mean by 'Zero Value'?

I mean less than 0.00000001 % of the 1913 Federal Reserve Note.  Or when it takes a 2 billion dollar bill to buy a loaf of bread.  Or when it is observed that Americans have effectively stopped using dollars due to the worthlessness of the these papers.
