I think this book was recommended by someone on twitter when there was a generl discussion on the implosion of American dollar and reneging on all debt....I thoroughly enjoyed this as it was interesting what the author thought would happen from both a micro and macro viewpoint! Well written if you have a general economic interest

Great imagining of a near-term future where the economy in the USA has collapsed.

Sucks you in but basically felt horrifyingly despairing about the future the whole time I was reading it. Definitely would not recommend reading during Covid times (or any other disaster)

Finally finished. Simply put it was interesting in the beginning, the middle dragged on and the end was interesting but a little rushed. I was more interested however in events before 2029 and the mid 30s and early 40s. Excellent ideas however felt like a draft
