Description
The bestseller finance book now available in paperback with a new updated epilogue This book has it all - sophisticated global analysis, a new Canadian agenda for the next millennium and an individual retirement planner. The Cooper Files is also an entertaining and easy-to-follow guide to the monumental, once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for financial gain that are presented by the technology revolution. You will learn how to break free of the financial and career anxieties associated with this period of rapid change - how to ensure your financial security and that of your family. You will learn how to take control of your own destiny in a time of tremendous opportunity. A leading economist and commentator on the global scene, Sherry Cooper assesses the growth sectors of the global economy and shows how Canadians can position their careers and investments to assure financial security and prosperity. Who will be the winners and losers? Which countries are the leaders and which are the laggards, and why? What can we do to maximize our own career and investment opportunities? Dr. Cooper answers these questions and provides inspiring portraits of individuals, industries and locales in Canada that are pointing the way forward, bucking the malaise that has infected Canada and creating dynamic growth. Whether you are just starting out, a mid-life Baby Boomer, or well into your retirement years, The Cooper Files shows how you can profit and prosper in the new millennium. (2000)
