Marc Faber's current tag line is telling parents to buy their children a $100 US Bond to teach the children about inflation as they watch their bond diminish in value to $0. lol.

His real claim to fame is getting his clients out of the market before the crash of 1987. His market report is called the "Gloom, Boom, Doom" report.

I don't agree with some of his stuff, I agree with others, but the education in the video is wonderful for those willing to take the time.
