spend 'em if you got 'em

"the dollar crisis" by richard duncan is pretty good.  Although written in 2003 with updates in 2005, he seems to hit the mark on quite a few things...my take from the book is this...

• the dollar is doomed, if you're rich in dollars, you ain't gonna be rich no more
• if you got dollars, you may as well have some fun and spend your paper money. and at least you'll have some fun.

it seems there are always extreme (even not so extreme) situations which reset the monopoly board of life.  this may be one of them...that cause people that thought they were rich to...well...not be so rich...

i think real richness in the 'next economic life' will come down to having family and friends to enjoy a nice game of 'monopoly', or my favorite the game of 'life'.
