Chaos Theory and The End of Life Style
2007-07-31 - By James West
Black clouds swirl in the high stratosphere over the financial continents. The canaries of mines economic are dropping like lifeless flies into the bottomless pits into which they have been lowered. A profound financial catastrophe of global and biblical proportion looms.
Ignore this scenario at your own peril.
Like lemmings leaping off of cliffs in an ersatz embrace of ecstasy, you probably read the first paragraph of 5 stories a day before you hop in your car/truck/suv for the daily commute to the job that facilitates your American dream.
But those little sound bytes on CNN are starting to mingle and mesh into something much bigger and more sinister than even the heads that talk can imagine.
Peak Oil, worthless currencies, natural disasters, severe climatic alteration and events, widespread growth of infectious diseases and bacteria resistant strains, sky high commodity prices, growing areas of major conflict, terrorism spilling over borders into First World countries.
Could you imagine if all of these situations were to consolidate in timing as to be simultaneous:
1. Peak oil production: The global consumption of hydrocarbon products exceeds the industry’s ability to meet that demand, resulting in a steepening price incline with no cap;
2. Currency devaluation/hyperinflation: The value of the money in your wallet starts to depreciate so fast as to be next to worthless between the time the news broadcast that alerts you to the imminence of the problem and the time you walk (‘cause you suddenly can’t afford gasoline) to the bank;
3. When you get to the bank, the manager advises that your mortgage is being sold, and called on for payment in full, because the currency devaluation has put the bank’s ability to service its own debt is no longer possible;
4. You stumble towards home in a daze, thinking you will stop by the supermarket and get some groceries, only to find nothing left for sale because the transportation companies have ceased delivery of foodstuffs;
5. You get home and reach into your mailbox to discover you’ve been laid off from your job because the company you worked for can no longer make money with the high cost of energy and basic materials;
6. Your house has been ransacked and all of your belongings stolen by roving bands of feckless mobs who got the news about the End of Life Style half an hour before you.
Did I make you smile? Albeit nervously?
Sounds impossible, doesn’t it?
Or does it?
Look at last week’s news. Here’s a selection of headlines for you:
Stocks sink on housing, credit concernsStocks plunge; Dow falls more than 400 Mortgage delinquencies could soar - Moody's Economy.com
Staff stunned as manufacturer announces 90 layoffs
LSI announces layoffs, including 225 in Wichita
Rising Food Prices Curb Aid To Global Poor
Food Commodity Prices Have Risen By 21 Percent Since 2005, Stretching Aid Groups' Resources Thin – CBS News
Tasmania's Director of Public Health has confirmed that the incidence of influenza in the state is increasing.
Russia dealing with Legionnaire's outbreak
The Coming Catastrophe - Avian Flu

This is one day’s headlines!
Humanity has created such a tightly interwoven manifestation of industries all designed to ease and perpetuate life on a ball of consumable fuels called Earth, that its destruction becomes easier (and more inevitable) with every percentage point in growth.
What are you going to do to prevent your family falling victim to the swirling forces of doom? Are you going to succumb to any one of the myriad scenarios threatening to engulf a large majority of humankind?
Or will you be one of the lucky few who, heeding the advice of visionary editors, avert disaster through a carefully crafted investment strategy?
Let’s face it. Though the scenario described above represents the extreme edge of probability, you’d have to have your head in the sand to deny that the headlines we’re seeing with increasing frequency represent the harbingers of a civilization teetering on the brink of extinction.
In his latest book, James Lovelock, world-renowned author of over 200 scientific papers and several books, writes:
“We have grown in number to the point where our presence is perceptibly disabling the planet like a disease. As in human diseases there are four possible outcomes: destruction of the invading disease organisms; chronic infection; destruction of the host; or symbioisis – a lasting relationship of mutual benefit to the host and the invader”
He continues:
Much of the tropical land mass will become scrub and desert, and will no longer serve for regulation; this adds to the 40 per cent of the Earth's surface we have depleted to feed ourselves.
Now James Lovelock is no armchair critic. independent scientist, environmentalist, author and researcher, Doctor Honoris Causa of several universities throughout the world, he is considered since several decades as a one of the main ideological leaders, if not the main one, in the history of the development of environmental awareness. James Lovelock is still today one of the main authors in the environmental field.
So when a guy like him pipes up and asserts that this stuff is actually happening, and happening right now, you’d better sit up and take note.
So we find ourselves looking for strategies to fend off the coming storm, or at least find a way for us and ours to whether it without becoming its prey.
A successful investment approach is key to weathering such storms. Mainstream financial America will be the first pillar in the house of civilized man to fall. Already the signs are visible. (Just look at those headlines!)
James Lovelock is in favor of the use of clean nuclear energy, respectful of the environment : read the introduction of James Lovelock to the book "Environmentalists For Nuclear Energy". He supports the Association of Environmentalists For Nuclear Energy (EFN).
So investing in Uranium and uranium stocks is a good strategy.
Gold is the ultimate safe haven asset class.
But the best strategy of all will be health, wealth and prosperity. Check back often to discover the secret strategies that will save you and your loved ones from the dark times ahead.

Great info...Uranium is definitely on my hot list as of late. I like it long term projections being a macro thinker and its low supply but high demand will shoot its prices right up in the commodities market. Just take a look at this link of a report i found on it...
