Exclusive Interview with Future Prediction Expert Gerald Celente

by Terry Easton 06/05/2009 It’s the end of the world as the Greater Depression hits after 2010’s failed “W-recovery” Human Events had the opportunity to interview forecaster extraordinaire Gerald Celente, President of Trends Research Institute, several days ago -- and the future he predicts looks bleak indeed.
