This is the second part of our interview with Harry Dent. Last week, Harry and Bruce talked about the threat to the economy, which is according to Harry's prediction- the financial asset bubble.
 
 Harry S. Dent Jr. studied economics in college in the 1970s, receiving his MBA from Harvard Business School where he was a Baker Scholar and was elected to the Century Club for leadership excellence. After Harvard he became a management consultant, helping businesses understand where they were, what obstacles they faced, and how to succeed.  He did this by weaving together research on people, technology, and markets. 

Since then, he’s spoken to executives, financial advisors, and investors around the world. He’s appeared on “Good Morning America,” PBS, CNBC, and CNN/Fox News. He’s been featured in Barron’s, Investor’s Business Daily, Entrepreneur, Fortune, Success, U.S. News and World Report, Business Week, The Wall Street Journal, American Demographics, and Omni. 

Harry has written numerous books over the years. In his book The Great Boom Ahead, published in 1992, he stood virtually alone in accurately forecasting the unanticipated boom of the U.S. economy in the 1990s, as well as the multi-decade decline of the Japanese economy.  In 2016, Harry published, The Sale of a Lifetime,  where he reveals the secret behind many of the largest (and fastest!) fortunes in history out of great crashes that can create a profit windfall that will last you generations. 

Today, he uses the tools he developed from decades of research and hands-on business experience to offer readers a positive, easy-to-understand view of the economic future.
