By the end of this I’ll have given you two ideas on how to stay ahead of the trends that will unlock over $20 billion (maybe more) into our economy in the next 5 years….

*But there’s much more to it than that, I mean for you personally.

I have to tell you something else before I can get into all that but I really should go ahead and mention that these billions of dollars will all be made in areas that barely even exist today…3D Printing, Synthetic biology, Sensors, Robotics, Biotech, Artificial Intelligence and on and on.

But please don’t read another word before you understand this: you don’t have to know anything…and you don’t really even have to learn anything about these industries to make money off of them.  

No, you personally aren’t going to make billions (well, who am I to put limits on you…maybe you will).  

But don’t be intimidated by that huge number….  

Here is something that I believe is true: anyone reading this can make a (really good) living if you know how to live in the era of super abundance. You’ll understand by the end of the article.

And here is what you need to know first…

Right this very second there are a lot of smart books and pundits out there patting themselves on the back…

They do this because for many years they were right about one thing: We moved from an industrial economy to a knowledge economy.

Which meant sell manufacturing, buy tech.

In other words, we began to outsource industry (e.g. cars and computers) and we began to “insource” (i.e. hire) knowledge. Knowledge are things like programming, engineering, other sciences, etc.

And these same people are still writing books about how smart they are.

Sadly for them (and dangerously for you) they are wrong.

Listen…we are NOT in a knowledge economy and we haven’t been for at least 5 years and probably closer to 20.

The middle layer of the economy: middle management and the “knowledge workers” are being outsourced or demoted or replaced by temp staffers or robotics or simply fired.

It’s because we now outsource knowledge.

Right now I have several projects going on.

  • I’m translating one of my books into several languages (all outsourced to India or Vietnam).
  • I’m doing a programming project (an app for the Apple Watch). It’s being outsourced to India.
  • For the fun of it, I’ve even outsourced the rewriting of a famous book to a group in Malaysia.
  • Because of the increase in literacy throughout the world, people have been electing not to come to the United States anymore to get their higher education.

    They are staying at home.

    But the pay has not yet caught up.

    Eventually it will. But until it does, it pays to outsource as much traditional knowledge as possible to these other countries.
