This book will give you the understanding and the blueprint for shaping your financial future and that of your community.
After what seemed like a bad dream, the country woke up to find themselves in the Financial Land of Oz. The housing market cratered, stocks fell, and once venerable financial institutions were on life support. The economy struggled. The Wizards stepped in with their own rescue.
The economy recovered, but not for everyone. The social fabric tore in Ferguson and Baltimore. The 2016 presidential election split the country even more.
The economy and our social fabric can recover, though our journey will require us to take a road we have traveled before but one we long ago forgot. Reliance on the Wizards will only make our country’s journey more painful. Ultimately, we have to trust ourselves. Once we pull back the curtain, we will realize we can get back home without the Wizard’s help.
Professional Reviews
American Economy Ready to Implode
We are certainly on the edge of an economic precipice as Mr. Mosquera clearly documents. He takes us through the “economics jungle” in plain understandable language that even I understood. All chapters end with a Summary of salient points and issues; and, what is even more helpful, are the “Reader Actions” he includes at the end of chapters where appropriate. – Rick Steiner, Ph.D., Author “Retirement: Different by Design”
Mosquera helps you understand global economics trends in a comprehensive way
Jim gives a very comprehensive view of how the world economy has gotten to the precarious place it is over many years of flawed policies and then tells readers how to prepare for the coming dislocations and pain in a practical, helpful way. – Jordan Goodman, Author of 13 books on finance and investing
Clear, concise, fun, and compelling
Clear, concise, fun and compelling. Those are not words that usually come to me when reflecting on a book about economics, but Jim Mosquera has produced exactly that in Escaping Oz: Protecting Your Wealth During the Financial Crisis. The analysis is so strong that, for anyone who cares about money in a responsible manner, this book should be read and considered, especially in these confusing times. – Steven Spierer, TalkRadioOne.com
