July 10, 2019 Marc Friedrich: Recession Imminent, Euro Doomed, Digital Gold-Backed Currency Is The Future
Best-selling author Marc Friedrich discusses his thoughts on the global financial crisis, collapse, and debt bubble. He thinks a recession is imminent and that the Euro is ultimately doomed, how no monetary union has ever been successful in history. He gives tips on how to prepare (e.g. real assets) and describes what he thinks the future monetary system will look like...some type of asset-backed digital currency. He thinks that China definitely is set to become the primary global power and gives his thoughts on how that dynamic might play out with the United States.

About the Guest
After studying international business, Marc experienced first-hand the Argentinian state bankruptcy in 2001 and its ruinous consequences for the country and its citizens. He already gained international work and life experience as a young man.

Together with Matthias Weik (his friend from kindergarten days), for the past decade he has been holding seminars and specialist talks on the topics of precious metals, EU, the euro, Industry 4.0, digitalisation, Bitcoin & crypto currencies, blockchain and decentralisation at national and international companies, associations and foundations, and at congresses and specialist conferences around the world, as well as at universities and colleges.

Marc Friedrich is an enthusiastic connoisseur of whiskey. He recommends selected single malts as a mixer (!) for both balanced investment portfolios and balanced meals.
