The Dollar Meltdown Unknown Binding – October 29, 2009

The New York Times bestseller-an investment book for the coming age of high inflation.

On the heels of the most recent economic crisis, America is headed toward another: high inflation and dollar devaluation. The signs are clear: Federal debt is compounding while growth has stalled, and America's foreign creditors are questioning the dollar's reserve currency status. Meanwhile, the "hidden" federal debt, much larger than the official debt, makes things even worse.

But the good news, according to Charles Goyette, is that those who are prepared can protect themselves-and even profit-in this new era. Drawing on historical examples and a clear, down-to-earth analysis, he explains the importance of gold, silver, and other alternative investments when inflation takes off. He also gives readers the investing tools to protect their savings and capitalize on the opportunities ahead. Savvy readers don't have to be left holding the bag after decades of government irresponsibility.

Charles Goyette had a morning radio show in Phoenix, AZ a few years ago. I listened to him as I drove to work. Learned a lot about the coming financial mess, as the housing bubble was exploding and people were standing in line to get a chance to bid up the price of homes!! Charles had guests who clarified what the experts should have known.

This book is extremely well written in a way that is understandable to the average person. You do not need to be an accountant or financial wizard to understand the historical background or how this country got into this mess.

I have not finished reading, but I will soon. I recommend this to anyone who is the least bit interested in the economy.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Dollar Meltdown" review
Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2010

Hmmmmmm. Another one of those "The Sky is Falling" books. Painfully reminiscent of "The Great Depression of 1990" which is still entombed in one of my desk drawers, under my bed, or, well, who cares.

Author has done a good job of identifying the clandestine nature of the Federal Reserve System, the New World Order (one and the same, basically) and all the other subversive, higher, darker powers that REALLY own and run this country, for the uninformed who prefer to continue in their delusion of freedom, free enterprise, and the greatness of America. An eye-opening and perhaps shocking read for those who are inquiring enough not to believe everything the mainstream brainwashers (ooooops, I mean media) tell them.

The real value of this book didn't become apparent until the last 70 or so pages, in which he finally gets around to telling us "What to Do," but I guess that's the element of suspense. Or something like that.

Book shipped fairly promptly, but unfortunately, high shipping cost effectively offest the savings off retail.

This book is for those whom have woken up to the feeling that something is terribly wrong with our economy, especially your economy. The main stream media is daily rushing to assure you that the worst is over and your life is getting better. If you want to know what is really happening to your savings, your earnings, your pensions and your country then don't walk, RUSH out and buy the new book, The Dollar Meltdown!

Written in easily understood prose, author and radio talk show host Charles Goyette presents his case on what is happening to the U.S. dollar, why it is happening, who is responsible and most importantly how you can survive it.

An Excellent book. Well written, concise and clearly factual on the events that led to the current economic crisis. It becomes obvious that our leaders living in the DC balloon of ignorance should all try to get educated on financial issues and basic economics before making rules and laws which they don't understand but the population does who lives with the consequences. Goyette is an excellent writer and provides positive suggestions on how to protect whatever funds you have left after the financial devastation caused by our government and Wall street. Following the good recommendations of this book will help most people. One of the best reads for the money. G Hiebert

Charles Goyette does an excellent job laying out how Federal monetary policy has robbed and continues to rob Americans of our wealth and prosperity. Mr. Goyette also presents options for alternate investing to help protect against what would appear to be an impending crisis.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST READ!!!

Charles Goyette tells it all! Hundreds of hours of research has to have gone into the preparation and writing of this MUST READ book. He backs up Everything with FACTS.....no speculation.....just the cold hard facts about what is happening to America's currency crisis, and the dollar meltdown that we are experiencing in the U.S. I repeat: THIS BOOK IS A MUST READ! He reveals the "powers that be" behind all of the happenings that are contributing to what America is experiencing now. He gives clear directions as to how we, as Americans, can and must prepare for the coming collapse of the American dollar.

If you believe that Wallstreet operates on the true principles of capitalism, or there is a difference between the Democrat or Republican partys, or a consumption based society - this book isn't for you. Go into hock and buy a huge house, put your federal reserve notes towards your 401k. Stay plugged into the real "Matrix" and as a consumer, be consumed.

If you do not believe the notions above, or have doubts, you will find this book quite enlightening and informative. Don't wait too long to read this though.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected.
Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2009

I was hoping for a straight forward presentation of the most important events relating to the US dollar and associated monetary policy over the last hundred years.

This book is intended for someone with no general financial knowledge which, is why it is brimming with debatable political opinion instead of finite monetary fact.

If you dont know what the TARP program involes and generally disapprove of any form of government policy then you will like this book.

I wished it was advertised this way so that I did not purchase it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good read but investment advice not useful
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 29, 2010

I found the read quite interesting and the theory is understandable but the investment advice leaves alot to be desired. It consists of buying gold and silver coins and then a huge sleuth of ETF's for exposure to different commodities/indexes.. im not sure this would be prudent if there were a dollar meltdown..
