Well for my money, I don’t believe the world will end in 2012 and I do believe the U.S. will recover and strive for years to come. I buy and sell comics everyday. The comic market, like any other will rise and fall, that continues to make the world go round. Now is a great time to buy and I’m spending all I can afford. If I end up being wrong, what the heck, life is a gamble and if you don’t make the bet, you’re not gonna have a ticket to cash in..

Great points.

In my opinion, if the US $ does collapse and give way to a World Currency, it is sort of an end of the world scenario for the U.S. If the U.S. doesn’t control it’s own currency, the country will basically give way to some sort of “New World Order”, maybe not obviously or in the open, but it will be a slow migration (or maybe quick!). I think there would be panic in the streets if the dollar goes away.

I like your point about Jeremiah, BUY! (but maybe not comic books – land, food, clothes, staples and gold/silver may be a better decision) We’ll see what happens.

Thank you for your comments!

You left out the scenario where the US$Dollar inflates so much that it burst (collapses) in favor of a new currency like the “Amero”, the “Euro”, or even some new World Currency. But in any case, “You’re Right”. If you look at comic books As a currency, then you probably going to be disappointed.

Still, every time an “End of the World” scenario is used to “make a decision, I am always reminded of Jeremiah when the Babylonians conquered Israel. Jeremiah prophesied that event (before the King and all of Israel), and then went straight out and began buying land. When asked, Jeremiah said; (basically) “the more things change, the more they stay the same”.

Now i’m no Bible thumper so don’t get me wrong. But if you want to know the future, you must first know the past. And to that end, you should probably do as Jeremiah did, and BUY!
