I hate it when the speaker is referring to charts and graphs yet the camera remains continually on the speaker. If the point of recording the presentation is to share the information with as many paople as possible, it makes sense to do a better job of capturing the information being presented.

[fazzamin]

Yes, apologies for that. Hopefully the slides will be made available at the HTA website

Cheers

Who brings a baby to a talk/lecture such as this? Especially one that's loud and hacking up a lung throughout the presentation.

Different presentation, but I believe he references the same chart (maybe charts?) in the beginning.

What's with the crying baby throughout?

The financial system has already crashed but most governments around the world are in denial about it.

The response by most debtor nations has been to create another bubble instead of facing reality. Their doing this by printing more money out of thin air with no value to it flooding the marketplace with cheap credit enticing people to take on more debt so they can get re-elected. But we don't need more debt we obviously already have enough cars and investment properties we don't need anymore

I wonder how bad Australia will be affected by this global crisis? Are we going to be worse than we were in 1929? Are we going to be in the same condition as USA?

So far, other than Schiff, this is the only intelligent person I have heard speaking about the financial crisis. ALL the people on CNBC are NOT professionals, this guy is not only a professional he is a doctor.
