UK will Collapse Jim Rogers Investment Guru !!!!!!!!

[kopynd1]

doomed, no future, what future,lawlessness, this is a nightmare, I feel like shit. I am really concerned. HELP

[IParanoidAndroidI]

Fuck all up with the u.k, everyone has there ups and downs, and we are going through a bad patch at the moment, But we are slowly paying the debt off, and we still have one of the largest currencys in the world, the pound is almost double to the u.s dollar, and we Always have The EU to fall back on if we ever get that desperate, but we haven't even borrowed from them yet, and probably wont, america has no body to fall back on, its only japan and The u.k buying up american debt,

[robitsme]

@IParanoidAndroidI Sadly you don't know what you are talking about. I hope you have educated yourself in the 6 months since you wrote your post

[Scorpion781000]

@tommyboomboom Biz senin yedi sülaleni sikeriz de,,,üstüne bonus olsun diye ,kızlarınızı,annelerinizi yedek alırız. Son of Bitch,,,first of all ,,,listen your Central Bank President,,,,what did he say.... " At least four generation require for a healthy

Balance Sheet ",,,,Son of Bitch,,,,,think once more why did he say,,,,this truth ?And

[Scorpion781000]

"Wıll Collapse " don't be laugh me....COLLAPSED,,,already,,,

[tommyboomboom]

@Scorpion781000 UK still has a significantly larger economy than Turkey. Anani sikerim!

[commanderjohnkoenig]

The UK is in the dumpster

[hkrainman]

Wake up people! Even HSBC is moving out of UK and relocating their HQ back to Hong Kong!

[jayandrew01]

it is only just starting poeple,look for oct for usa markets to crash

[logelamutp]

germany the greatest, richest and powerful in europe

[Ausiz]

@logelamutp no, kazakhstan is greatest country in the world, germany can't compete with that :D

[frankqio]

thanks for posting !

[o0Tao0o]

Clearly this guy is a total muppet, here we are 1 year later and everything he said was incorrect.... haha, does anyone listen to this fool?

[gruff5]

@o0Tao0o err, I missed what thing he said that was incorrect - can you point it out to me, plz??

[Jacobrester]

@o0Tao0o He said the same shit about the USA 3 years ago and it never happened

[TheTruman777]

@o0Tao0o here we are 2 years down the line and we can see his wisdom winning through! Have you any views on all the cuts and increases in taxtaion? The students had plenty to say to the tories the other day! Also America is on the brink now. Some people are eating out the garbage cans over there who formely had good paying jobs. We are takling white coller guys turning up for a free feed in at charity relief centers!!! We truely are a nation of idiots. This man is wise. Read his books!

[o0Tao0o]

@TheTruman777 He's still incorrect. There's been no collapse. There may well be one, but not when this muppet said there would be.

[TheTruman777]

@o0Tao0o That is true. Then this is all a matter of timing then. Mind no one knows exactly a day of month when a particualr thing happens. The fundimental factors are stil there and are showing fruit in accoardance with what he had spoken, albeit not stricly on time. Do you really think he is and idiot? Gerald celente forecasted that there would be a world wide collaspe and he has been on spot on for over 20 years! Exact times are hard to predict but you can't discredit his wisdom/insight

[Sprauge99]

Well if you can get the enviromentalist to allow us to Mine it or in the case of Oil,pump it from the ground than yes we do have plenty of resources.

[999silverrush]

"Tell us why you think the pound is a bad choice, tell us whats wrong with Britain."

Wow, total intel fail. Well moron there nothing wrong with Britain, your first mistake is thinking britain=pound. Whats wrong is the bank printed your pound off a cliff a long time ago and it's about to land in a few years and theres 100 million people on an island that produces food for 5% of them and the only thing they will use the pound for besides burning is playing monopoly(no pun intened :-) )

[999silverrush]

These news reporter morons just don't get it. Their own personal emotional response to facts does not change the facts. I don't understand why they have such financially retarded people interview such wise people, you should have to go to a seperate school just to interview people like jim rogers, one where you actually learn whats HAPPENING IN REALITY instead of purple is a luxury color in businessmarketing102.

[Jacobrester]

This woman on the video doesnt want to hear the truth.....everytime he tells her something she dont like she changes the subject

[DiNatalli]

Vast amounts of coal that will not be used under the cop15 treaty.

[martinbelmont]

Bullshit. In france they beheaded their king and queen and have millions of tourists. Its the most lame argument for keeping them around.

[contactchoco]

The UK monarchy is one of the most powerful familys in the world. If you think they have no influence then you should research Money! You will find the royals along with other families own the bank of England. Which means that a large part of your taxes goes to paying the interest on the money loaned in to existence.

In other words you all still pay taxes to the king!

Google Money as Debt, Money masters,

or to put it another way: You'r being ripped off!

[whereismybailouttv]

I'm surprised Sky had the guts to put him on.

[salahuddin786]

Rid the UK monarchy as it is now a joke - The Queen does not even rule anything outside her palace as London is even owned by foreigners.

It is no longer Great but now is Britain.

Jim is asked to come on shows for his views why? - he talks truth. When did Mervyn King come to give his opinion? - exactly.

UK has no oil and sold its gold. Financial London is down and out - UK is finished as a Influencing Nation of the planet. FINISHED OUT BYGONE

[kansasisaband]

Thank God for Chapter 7.

Rid yourself of the monetary system and start packing your bags for another country. This is really something we can't run from though. What's next? Illuminati Blackjack...youtube it. Who knows. We all have so many opinions and we just need to UNITE and get networked and start making a difference on a larger scale. It's time people. UNITE as one. Peace.

[Zeldovich]

I'm glad the UK is finished. They've had this coming for some time. I hope their republic is overthrown and replaced by a disasterous dictatorship that lasts for generations.

[adamfaramir]

lol ... The UK is the United Kingdom and NOT a republic. Their monarch presently is Queen Elizabeth II

[AaronGreen]

Good Job No One Listens To Jim Rogers.

[titan13131]

Man, the bailouts won't work. We r just getting deeper into debt and r now debasing our currency by printing money. The fundamental problem with our economy is we imported way more than we exported and now we are broke and in debt. We need less government, less regulation and lower tax. We need companies to build their factories here and not in china. And actually, it's a real shame more people don't listen to Jim Rogers and others like him.

[AaronGreen]

Fair Comment.

[nav122]

And thats why you will regret it for years to come, you wait and see :)

[imh11621]

@AaronGreen Yep. Rogers is a coward. Makes a shit load of money here and when things get bad he slinks off to Asia. He's no better than those who financially raped this country. Good riddance to him.

[rainstormaeroponics]

she how she trys to twist it we are not compare it

we are it is fu*ked simple

we have no income and everyone is in debt and there housings is dropping

[duncan36]

EVERYONE in the UK works in insurance, financials, or government bureacracy, EVERYONE.

[kickndave21]

I think he is right, but he always has a chip on his shoulder. Show hosts are completely blind to whats happening but why get upset at them? Look at Ron Paul, hes so freaking patient. - Oh and he loves to say Mazzerati, however it is spelled.

[Jacobrester]

The UK is in very serious trouble when you add in the fact they have no natural resources.......they don't produce anything....and the days of London being the Financial Services Leader are over......I'd say the Brits are in trouble

[NunsAllowed]

Maybe, but we still have - our queen, the mother of all parliaments and the best police force money can buy.

Our greatest natural resource is our people.

So there.

[Jacobrester]

You can have the Queen.........Your parliament is indeed impressive......your police force is a joke......LOL

[Cathyvalaz]

let them fail!

[swixican]

good thing the US does have a manufacturing monopoly on one commodity the world will always need.... weapons

[01289PUDNAN]

@swixican that is a terrible thing, think back to the last depression, ww2 broke out not long after

[Igor707]

"terrible morality" say Jim Rogers. Yes, this is the core of the problem... I would add to this - and the SYSTEM which allowed and created conditions for all that.

[funex1]

£4.5 trillion in liabilities (foreign currency) is £180k per household. It would take at least two generations to pay off the debt these private banks have racked up overseas.

Even if the taxpayers were willing the pound wouldn't take it, it would collapse.

[mesaboogiemon]

Rant part 2 :-) Prosecute the financial criminals who got us in this mess, and lied to us all the way. Take away all their money and assets and make sure they never work in finance again. People don't seem to realize BANKS DON'T ACTUALLY CREATE WEALTH THEY JUST SCREW THE PEOPLE WHO DO! WAKE UP EVERYBODY let's start talking about real long term solutions and the bigger picture instead of just bickering about the details!

[sacha4you]

mesaboogiemon, good idea! What's about strapping financial criminals into the most exciting and irresistible piece of furniture in the history of humanity: The electric chair.

;-))

[mrgav88]

Your views are the opposite of Jim Rogers' views, you are right however. Nationalising the banks is the way forward, proper nationalisation and not bailout loans. Shut down the City, fanancial services are parasires. The only way to get banks putting credit back into the system to help build a strong economy is public ownership and control. Jim Rogers has milked this country for everything he can now he's taking the money he stole from our economy to china to rape their economy.

[mesaboogiemon]

Spot on Jim!

LET THE BANKS FAIL!! They eventually will anyway, compensate the people who have lost savings.Start up new banks with STRICT CONTROLS, buy all reposessed houses for all the homeless/jobless, give them enough credits for a basic existence. Encourage people to be more self sufficient

[Mojo1982]

F#ck Sky News, Murdoch-Zionist propaganda station. "Oh I didn't mean to distort you" Yeah right you disgusting propagandist. Jim Rogers is just tellling it as it is, and I'm English!

[xaviqaz]

Decoupling rules. Everybody is gonna suffer but at long term, when the US dollar loses the statu quo as 1st world reserve currency, the rest of the world will do much better

[Clichyabarbes22]

Spent 3 weeks in France about 3yrs. back. We took the Eurostar & arriving in London for 3days was like being splashed with a bucket of cold water. I do like the UK and Brits, but after spending 3wks in France among the very courteous, & helpful French (mind-they like Cdns) & enjoying thr rich culture & good food, I was struck at how rude, off-hand & generally lacking in common courtesy the Brits have become. A big change from my 1st visit a few yrs back. What happened? The food was awful also.

[Relugus]

Britain does not make anything anymore. It has nothing to sell.

Britain has gambled two thirds of its economy on the financial sector, which is utterly stupid.

Hardly surprising though, as we Brits prefer to make quick bucks through gambling rather than actually innovate like the Germans and Japanese.

[iancoley]

the only thing i may agree with from this yanky doodle dandy is allowing some of the banks to actually go under.... and allow the shareholder to take the pain.. but his other talk, just yankey doodle waffle, bless the new world dopes! AND WHAT IS THAT BOW TIE? trying to have British Savile Row style? Yanks just can't carry it off! all that cash and NO clue on style...

[drmodestoesq]

Normally, I avoid ad hominem attacks but for just once I feel compelled to make an exception. You remind me of a British automobile reviewer who went on and on about how classic a high priced British car's wooden dashboard was and how declasse a BMW's was. All the while ignoring the mechanical superiority of German engineering and saying that British mechanical breakdowns were charming. In my experience, you can wear socks with your sandals as long as your money is good.

[iancoley]

Dr! LMFAO again! you sit there in Canada, whose ass we saved from becoming Yanks by the way! and bemoan British made cars! NORTH AMERICAN CARS??? they are worst in world.. u get excited by petrol burning boxes! We STILL manufacture the best quailty cars in the world. TVR, MINI, Range Rover, Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Aston Martin, Lotus etc.... ALL MADE IN BRITAIN! name some Canadian makes? Might not all be owned by UK shareholders,still made here. And then you laugh at our fashion? Lumberjacks?

[Clichyabarbes22]

Love the UK. Was one of the greatest countries in the work. An important part of half our country's heritage, part of my heritage, but to use the word quality & British made cars in the same paragraph is an excellent definition of an oxymoron. Expensive - yes, cachet - yes, successful branding - yes, quality - absolutely not. Economy - IMO - religion is an opinion, economy is a fact. U can't measure god's grace; u CAN measure the value of an economy. This is serious & will get much worse.

[drmodestoesq]

I agree with your perspective Clichy. You have to be realistic and not be blinded by your patriotism. While we are on the subject of motor vehicles I'm reminded of Harley Davidson. I always said if I worked there I would put all my money in the bank (or gold, ha ha) because they are a fashion accessory for the upper middle class. One economic downturn and those overpriced rattling vibrating antiquated paint mixers are going in the tank.

[wrinkles1931]

Noo..My brother bought a land cruiser 2 years ago..it's been nothing but a complete disaster for him...I have 10 year old ford explorer (11 years old now) it has 148,000 miles on it...and never had a problem..the American cars have been given a bad rap becuase of the crap they put out in the 80s...look at JD Power for quality..you will see they have rated american cars among the best for the last 5 years or so...while British cars rate near the bottom

[drmodestoesq]

Ah, Mr. Iancoley, where to begin, firstly, I'm filled with nothing but gratitude for the gifts that remaining loyal to the British Empire has given Canada. Americans, for some reason think they vastly benefited from their revolution, I see no evidence of that. The commonwealth is not a competition, it is a mutually beneficial cooperation. Also, my comparison was between British and German cars not my Chevy piece of crap. In addition we are a small country not a superpower.

[iancoley]

Nothing wrong Britain! This dope did not predict the US mess, and his type are the reason it happened! So one thing we should learn is that these types talk bullshit! This guy distorts facts, he is one who has made money from "confidence" crisis, why listen to some yank telling us what to do. we will survive, like we have survived every crisis. We don't need an investment guru, who has no morals to advise us.

[drmodestoesq]

Mr. IanColey please, you have to do a slight bit of research. Mr. Rogers has been one of the most public and vociferous predictors of this crash for years. Do a simple YouTube search and you'll see interviews Jim Rogers did years ago calling this crisis with astounding perspicacity.

[iancoley]

drmodestoesq, LMFAO, there is always someone who can stand there and predict the world is nigh, and stand and say "told you so!"... look at religion, such as the Jehovah Witnesses, they have been predicting it aswell, it does NOT prove they are experts, this guy, like any such "expert" is partially to blame for this mess! sorry Doctor! this guy is so wrong, and sadly just says what the media want to hear, we need people to do stuff, not sit there &comment! He has made millions out of the mess!

[drmodestoesq]

You are right, anyone can be a simple contrarian, but when you look at the specifics Peter Schiff, John H. Kunstler etc.. used to describe the present collapse, well, its just uncanny. Point by point they nailed it. Also, I wasn't praising the fashion sense of the average Canadian, I was insulting your snobbery over Mr. Rogers choice of neck wear. I personally, wear my ignorance of fashion as a badge of honour. (Look at that my anglo friend, Youtube thinks you can spell honour without U)

[wrinkles1931]

Well..you may survive...but you and the US/canada...are headed for complete financial collapse..depression...and long term pain

[drmodestoesq]

Wrinkles old boy, why are you including the Northern Wastes along with Britain and the good ol' USA. We in Canada have two trillion barrels of oil mixed with sand, huge agricultural exports, massive amounts of uranium etc, etc, etc. We are perfectly positioned for the rebound of China and India and the rest of the world's domestic consumption. If your watching Jim Rogers you know he's bullish on commodities. A note to Mr. Iancoley, those lumberjack shirts aren't just a fashion accessory.

[wrinkles1931]

Well.the USa has masive shale deposits...but..it take many years to get them developed...anyway, what I was refering to was manufacturing business...and trade wth the USA......it's gonna hurt if the USA goes under...trust me

[iancoley]

Dr, the raw materials you have do help you, a gift from the Brits "Eh?" I love it when the guys from the Colonies try to talk sense, like little kids becoming teens and thinking they own the world. They still lack experience and culture, finding their feet in the wilderness. And fashion? Canada? oh dear... no comment... Canada has only given one thing of worth to the world.. RUSH! and you still allow the French to dictate to you! LMFAO

[drmodestoesq]

Canadians think they own the world? Where do get your cultural insights? We think we're a insignificant country. You Brits on the other hand (like the French) still think you have great empires. And Fashion, I said we have no fashion sense! I also said nobody cares. As for the Quebecois French, they are our brothers and sisters who have fought and bleed beside us in every conflict we have ever been in. When will you Euros every get over your ethnic hatreds and think of the future.

[drmodestoesq]

My god man, American just elected a black president. What do we hear from you Euros? A constant stream of ethnic hatred which has benighted that continent for thousands of years. They strange thing is that you think your hatred of the French, Italians, Lichensteinians etc... is what differentiates you from each other. In fact its what you all have in common. Hell, soccer fans from Leeds pound soccer fans from Clacton on Sea. You're like the family of drunks that lives next door.

[iancoley]

Dr! lmfao... your ignorance of the facts shows you up. Check you facts! I have to laugh when I read stuff from the new world colonies commenting on the motherland, the place from where you got the little culture you base you life on. We have learnt lessons that you have still to learn. I am not aware of any FOOTBALL (not soccer.. dope!) fans pounding fans from Clacton on sea? strange comment?? better that clubbing seals? eh? I am wary of the french! as you should be, not ethical hatred,

[drmodestoesq]

I agree that your hatred, or as you say wariness of the French is not ethical. As for learning lessons, here's a lesson you should learn from our tight fisted Scots bankers. (I guess all the good ones emigrated to Canada during the enclosures) Don't buy bad paper from the Americans. Oh, and our seals are in a state of overpopulation. Where are your seals, bears, wild boars, wolves etc. etc etc...Oh, that's right you reduced them to extinction centuries ago. My god, even beavers!

[Clichyabarbes22]

A method of discussing a subject which involves being as provocative as possible invites a response. If your definition of culture means covering anything edible with custard, dumping Ryanair loads of binge drinkers on the ancient capitals of eastern Europe, or men wearing bells jumping around waving hankies, uh, no thanks. In any case having an ancient culture doesn't seem to have given these old societies a firmer grasp of or a leg up on, common sense & wisdom, witness the UK economy.

[drmodestoesq]

Who was it who said, "Everybody should try everything at least once, except for incest and Morris dancing."

[1966BOBBY]

Yeah, I'd never try morris dancing!

[NunsAllowed]

I tried Morris dancing once, but, I kept falling of the bonnet. ( US translation, Bonnet = hood)

[Clichyabarbes22]

I agree that thr will be a lot of pain, but Canada in a completely different position than either the US or UK. More than a decade of surpluses & debt reduction, our debt service ratio went fr around 70%, now round 30%. No toxic mtgs & our banks never tried to suplement thr balance sheets w/ derivatives. Our banks r sound. No credit to us but we sit on worlds largest supply of Uranium, potash. Also timber, grains. We deal w/ the world, not just US. World demand is still growing.

[drmodestoesq]

Preach brother preach. I never thought I would be grateful for the tight fisted Scots that run our banks. In addition, the balanced budget mentality has actually entered the political consciousness. A survey a couple of years ago (those were the days!) asked what we should do with the current government surplus. The answer, inexplicably enough, was "pay down the national debt." Talk about a challenge to ones misanthropy and pessimism.

[funex1]

Tight fisted, prudent Scottish bankers?! It was the UKs two giant Scottish banks that are toxic (RBS and Bank of Scotland). Plus our Prime Minister and Chief Treasurer are Scottish (Brown and Darling). Hardly prudent.

[funex1]

I'm Irish, living in the UK, despite what I've said I'm fond of the Scots.

[KhmerD0g]

beam me up scotty

[drmodestoesq]

Mr. Funex, I noted (somewhat facetiously, obviously) that Canada got all the tight fisted Scots as a result of the enclosures of the 18th and 19th centuries. Also, I hate to inject a serious note but as Niall Fergusen says the issue is not to regulate or not to regulate financial institutions. The point is good regulation and bad regulation. Look at the sub-prime crisis. The same companies that were selling them were also rating them. What a laughable conflict of interest.

[NunsAllowed]

I live in London, but, find the Scots a bit of a handful: coming down here taking our jobs spreading their toxic debts all over our fiscal system: leaving shortbread crumbs everywhere.

The Romans got it right: Hadrians Wall. It just wasn't high enough.

[wilzyk]

you silly little twit. you are probably a wog.

[FelixLighter22]

Shame about Hadrians Wall right enough.Had it been high enough you wouldn't have been able to come north and steal our oil.English twat.

[Ntone606]

LOL are people seriously having an argument Jim Rogers vs the UK? Arguing with Jim Rogers and Marc Faber is pretty much the dumbest thing you can do in terms of investments. I would suggest people who are angry about hearing the truth go long commodities, Asia and short US long term treasury bonds. Then you'll feel better.

[Justbeatit999]

I always watch JIM ROGERS, MARC FABER, PETER SCHIFF and RON PAUL at financialtruth0.blogspot . com because they post all the latest videos there. Thanks for uploading anyway!

And don't forget the Peak oilers like John Howard Kunstler and Matt Simmons.

[mossmac1]

JCSY44 - what would you suggest 'Jimbo' should do? - invest all his wealth in a shite failing economy like America's or Britain's - because THAT would be like shuving bamboo shoots up his peehole......you and the rest of the public that has blind patriotism is part of the trouble in this world.....

[JCSY44]

Oh waaah. Lighten up, Francis. I don't think any currency is safe. Best put your money in Food.

[KhmerD0g]

and precious metals to store wealth

[HookhamC]

Jim is the best!!

[JCSY44]

Yeah, THEY took the pain and people like you moved. Can't hide forever, Jimbo.

[ampasf]

JCSY, you're free to take your money out of american and britich currency too. Jim Rogers' isn't some special magical person that makes him the only person that can do this. He's just smarter than you.

[podrag]

Dude, don't hate on people who are successful just because they are successful. It reflects poorly on your character. Jimbo doesn't owe you or me anything but he still takes the time to talk to people on TV.

[JCSY44]

I was just having some fun. You're correct, sir.

[JCSY44]

I love Britain! I love America! That's why I'm bailing my ass out to China! I hope the greedy bastard gets bamboo shoots shoved up his pee-hole.

[adilccu]

YOU STUPID.

[NicosMind]

So you want him to be stupid and keep his money in an economy thats gonna have hyperinflation and every step theyre taking is destroying the banks and the economys. Theyre destroying the tax payers money and throwing it down the drain. Is that a good thing in your eyes?

[podrag]

Gee whiz, the man has the foresight to look after himself and you hate on him. Dude, this guy is doing his best to inform the world about what is happening. Stop drinking the socialist Hatorade and listen to him. He's doing you a big favour. Unless you spent all your money and expect the government to save you... if so you basically deserve what's coming to you.

[JCSY44]

I was just having fun, venting some frustrations, but you would be correct.

[UDoHaveMyName]

Kindof random, but I was glad to see Moriarty in your tags section :)

[mrzack888]

good to know,
