DAC 2013: Debt and Demographics – The Wild Cards with Robert Ironside

In 2050, 2 billion people worldwide will be over age 60 – it’s the fastest growing age cohort in the world. Learn how the changing demographics will impact the future at our upcoming Distinguished Advisor Conference, November 10-13, 2013 in Ojai, California.

By the year 2070, we will have the greatest population reduction since the Black Plague in Europe. China has one of the fastest aging populations in the world – will be old before rich. Massive migration of rural to urban areas will fuel the need feeding and housing in old age in under-developed nations. The developed world’s influence will shrink. . .

Significant changes in demographics will affect everything – business valuation, stock and bond values, real estate values, export values and family values. What investors will profit from a declining world population? Who will lose?

In a session that will have you at the edge of your seat, you will learn that if you’re focused on a younger demographic, you may want to rethink your strategy. Learn how to do a SWOT ANALYSIS on the opportunities that lie ahead.
