Basic Information For Futurists
 

Hi,

The article I've linked to below is a wonderful source of ideas for business ventures.

From my reading of this article, here are my thumbnails of products and services that will be huge home-runs for the providers:

* Needed invention: a food factory: robots add seeds to one end of a conveyor belt and harvest food from the other end.

* Needed invention: a water creator.

* Product: provides quick economic success for young people.

* Product: provides self-reliance.

* Service: quick and ultra-cool vacations or niche-vacations.

* Product: manufactured housing.

* Services: for the elderly.

* Product: Business TV shows and other niche TV programming.

Hope this was useful,

-Boyd

Hi Boyd,

Thanks for the link to the article, I enjoyed it!

Boyd.... Here's what I've found one of the most remarkable books of prediction.... Remarkable, because it makes sense, and has proven to be incredibly accurate!

I'm talking about "The Great Boom Ahead," by Harry S. Dent.... It was published in 1993. In it, he not only predicted the economic boom we've been seeing, but also the recession in the Japanese economy....

The incredible thing is, he predicted it almost purely on the basis of demographics.

I won't say too much here, but his approach has been shown to be accurate, and is also very rational (something I personally look for).... I think you'd probably appreciate it. :)

Once you understand his technique, you can extend it to the future.... You can get a good idea about which business sectors will be "booming" over the coming few years, and which sectors will start to go "bust"....

This is useful information, both for the long term stock market investor as well as for the small businessperson or independent professional....
