The Shrinking World
The 30-year era of free money is over. AGI is coming for your job. And most financial advice you have ever heard is now dangerously wrong.
In 2024, Japan's 30-year bond yield hit 3.41 percent-the signal that the world's cheapest money was ending. In the same decade, Artificial General Intelligence will displace millions of cognitive workers. These two ruptures are converging into a 15-year contraction when capital becomes expensive, labor becomes non-scarce, and the old rules of investing and careers no longer apply.
Warren H. Lau-a former Wall Street trader who returned 600 percent in the 2008 crash and averaged 22 percent annual gains for seven years-presents a battle-hardened system for surviving the contraction. Not predictions. Not hope. A system: when to buy gold, when to sell stocks, how to generate income when no one needs your brain, and how to exploit volatility instead of fearing it.
Written for three audiences-investors, working people planning retirement, and college students building careers-this book offers a transparent, backtested framework that replaces emotion with checklists, prediction with preparation, and hope with discipline.
If you want comfort, read a different book. If you want a cold, logical framework to survive the greatest economic shift in a generation, read The Shrinking World.
Three guides. One system. No illusions.
