Sunday watch, George Soros: “the end of an era”

If you have a hard time understanding what is going on nowadays and you have some time to watch world’s most known investor George Soros, you’ll get a good basis for all chit chats tomorrow at the office.
Bill Moyers interviews Soros, who has been warning years ago of a financial melt down fueled by easy credit and sleepy regulation. If you ask me these for words are a spot on explanation for the crisis.
You can find the video at Bill Moyers Journal

Hi Patrick,
thanks a lot for sharing, really appreciate…
first time I hear Soros talking, interesting to see how down-to-earth he is…
would be nice if he could explain to the average guy what “investing” in shares means…

Patrick:
Great find - thank you for highlighting this interview. I would encourage you to keep up or maybe coordinate a forum where your readers can share their thoughts on how technology must adapt to survive the next phase, contribute to developing solutions, and plant the seeds of new growth. Once the dust settles there is going to be a very new landscape to explore: one which will likely include tighter funding but also one which should draw forth more inspired leadership.
