I took a course in Economics in college. I had a wonderful Professor who was excellent at explaining and turned me on to Economics even though my undergraduate degree from Punjab University was in Engineering. Later on I studied at University of Washington for my Master's and Ph. D degrees. I worked for Boeing for 5 years in Seattle, then The Aerospace Corporation for 6 years, and US Nuclear Regulatory Commission for 5 years and finally became an entrepreneur in Silicon Valley becoming CEO of several companies over the years.
For the last 7 years I was a CA Licensed Real Estate and Finance Broker and was at the epicenter of the Housing Crisis and saw first hand the brewing of the disaster. We have seen it all -both the ups and downs and learnt from it all. We wanted to share what we learned over the last 48 years in this country by writing this book.


My love for Mathematics and Politics also influenced my love for Economics and stock markets. I guess I was wired like that. It did not take me long to learn that they are all interconnected. I studied the theories of Ludwig von Mises and Nobel laureate Friedrich Hayek and then became adept at Elliott Wave Theory. 


Today we are confronting unprecedented levels of debt, foreclosures, bankruptcies, unemployment, energy depletion, foreign exchange hysteria, illnesses treated without health insurance coverage—or just not treated, unprecedented levels of homelessness, and by all indications, not only the USA but the whole world is well on the road to a re-run of 1929- style deflationary depression or something much worse.

We all know nothing lasts forever, and birth, youth, maturity, old age, and death are all cyclical. Whether it's a person, a town, a country, a civilization, a planet or a galaxy, they all grow through the same stages in this material world- like Yin and Yang in the Chinese philosophy. It is the waxing and waning of the cosmic and human realms as a process of harmonization ensuring a constant, dynamic balance of all things. It's just a question of over what time period it happens and how large it is. This period that we are going through will also end. The question is how do we ride this wave and enjoy the thrill of it while helping to reduce the pain for others.
