BUY WHEN THERE IS BLOOD IN THE STREETS.

-Sir John Templeton, billionaire, contrarian value investor, and "the greatest stock picker of the century" (Money magazine)

YOU CAN MAKE MEGA RETURNS BY GOING AGAINST THE GRAIN

John Templeton famously said, "You want to buy at the point of maximum pessimism." This book is about finding bargains and profiting when assets become cheap. This book is about making Mega Returns.

If you follow the masses and adhere to media predictions, then Mega Returns is not right for you. If, however, you're not afraid to go against the grain and like to think outside the box by buying when others are selling, and you enjoy undervalued assets, then Mega Returns is your bible for investing.

We are coming to the end of an era: the era of asset price inflation and bubbles driven by a huge explosion in debt that has continually picked up steam and accelerated since the 2008 financial crisis. For the past 50 years, we have seen an explosion of debt at all levels of the global economy. From government to consumer to investment corporate to junk corporate to student and emerging market debt, the list goes on.

Today, the world is experiencing the "everything bubble." Nearly every asset class is at an all-time historical high—stocks, bonds, and real estate alike. This can mainly be attributed to the cheap money policies and inflation due to a massive increase in money printing. This everything bubble creates a new series of challenges for traditional investments; however, there will be a variety of opportunities for the savvy investor to make Mega Returns.

This book is not doom and gloom. While the current state of the global economy is indeed alarming, you must not let the failure of large governments and multinational corporations to properly manage their funds negatively affect your investment decisions. In fact, quite the opposite—with the bursting of the bubble, great opportunities will arise for the informed investor. The world financial system is experiencing serious changes in terms of emerging technologies, fluctuating commodities, precious metals markets, and debt-servicing capabilities. Even the fiat system is evolving with the development and implementation of cryptocurrencies globally.

With so many rapidly emerging and changing economic markets and sectors, many opportunities will present themselves for financial gain in both the short and long terms. Mega Returns—Good hunting!
