This article is always true.

Doom is just around the corner. Our financial foundations are precarious and we walk on a precipice.

When we fall off the cliff, like in 1929 (I don't believe 2000 or 2008 or the present crises are even comparable), no one will have seen it coming. It'll just happen.

As such, the action to take is always the same. Hedge your bets for YOUR particular situation. Stick with a consistent strategy that works for YOU.

As for authors preaching the moon or doom, I'd like to see what skin you have in the game. It would make for far better reading. EG) Prove you're sold out and are shorting the market.

I don't mean to be snark, I'm serious. There's a real opportunity for content creators who provide advice AND have skin in the game.

Everyone with an internet connection or on a major network can say anything they want. In a content-saturated world, consumers are hungry for people who preach something AND have skin in the game to back it up.

To all advisors and commentators, put your money where your mouth is - it's a great opportunity!
