Europe and Asia don't provide much hope, but what about somewhere that's both closer to home and sunny year-round? In \u003ci\u003eBrazil is the New America: How Brazil Offers Upward Mobility in a Collapsing World, \u003c\/i\u003e James D. Davidson shows that the current financial situation in Brazil is a haven for those looking to make money in a world in turmoil.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith a population just 62 percent the size of that of the US, Brazil has added 15,023,633 jobs over the past eight years, while the US has lost millions. In a world burdened by bankrupt governments and aging populations, Brazil is solvent, with two people of working age for every dependent. In a world of \"Peak Oil\" Brazil is energy independent, with 70 billion barrels of oil, 60% of the world's unused arable land, and 15% of its fresh water. Comparatively non-leveraged--and with significant room for growth and expansion, as well as vast natural resources, Brazil is a haven of opportunity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten by James D.

Over the eighty-year span from 1929 to 2009, average annual GDP growth was 3.6 percent, but the ten-year growth rate was only 1.9 percent and the five-year growth rate was less than one percent. With unfunded Medicare and Social Security liabilities growing at a rate of 33 percent of GDP ($5 trillion annually), the U.S. faces the greatest solvency crisis in history. Ever shrinking incomes and an erratic stock market combine with a widening gap between spending promises and actual resources to create a perfect storm of downward mobility.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs the U.S. grows more bankrupt by the day, many Americans are looking for investing opportunities abroad, but the familiar, traditional \"advanced\" temperate-zone economies of Europe and Asia seem just as bleak. In \u003ci\u003eBrazil Is the New America: How Brazil Offers Upward Mobility in a Collapsing World, \u003c\/i\u003e acclaimed entrepreneur James Davidson presents another option, explaining how Brazil has emerged as the new destination for investment success. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile the United States remains in the throes of financial crisis, Brazil has already undergone its own period of wrenching adjustment and has come out the other side all the stronger for it. Having learned its inflation lesson, Brazil is now reinstituting high-interest credit, paving the way for impressive growth prospects over the next decade, while transforming the country into an investor's dream. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a population just two-thirds the size of that of the U.S., Brazil has created over 15 million jobs in the past eight years, while the U.S. lost jobs. Combining energy independence and vast natural resources, including 60 percent of the world's unused arable land, and 25 percent of its fresh water, Brazil is the first tropical superpower, offering a whole new frontier for growth. Add in a young population, a relatively underleveraged consumer economy, and a per capita GDP that has more than doubled in the last decade, and you have a recipe for investment success. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe awakening of the long slumbering giants, China and India, will profoundly reshape the world economy, and one country is sure to benefit--Brazil. Whether you're looking to relocate yourself and your entire business, or simply want to put your money to work somewhere that still has the potential to grow, \u003ci\u003eBrazil Is the New America\u003c\/i\u003e tells you about everything you need to get started.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJAMES DALE DAVIDSON \u003c\/b\u003eis a successful entrepreneur who edits \u003ci\u003eStrategic Investment.\u003c\/i\u003e A cofounder, with Bill Bonner, of Agora Inc. and a cofounder of the media outlet Newsmax.com, Mr. Davidson is the author of five books.
