The Great Depression of 2023? ⛔️
In this YouTube monologue, Rob Moore argues that a severe economic downturn—potentially a Great Depression—will arrive soon, citing a confluence of recent shocks such as Brexit, the COVID‑19 pandemic, massive inflation, soaring taxes, the Russia‑Ukraine war, energy shortages, and unprecedented government debt. He references billionaire investor Ray Dalio’s forecast and Elon Musk’s timeline, differentiates between a market correction, a recession, and a depression, and asks viewers to weigh in on which they expect and when. Moore then frames the looming crisis as an opportunity, outlining how falling asset prices, reduced competition, and heightened consumer pain can create fertile ground for new businesses and wealth creation. He offers a five‑point action plan: be prepared, develop a concrete plan (side‑hustles, career moves, investments), protect cash by moving it out of inflation‑eating liabilities, invest in appreciating assets, and leverage the situation to build recurring income streams. Throughout, he repeatedly promotes his subscription platform rob.team, detailing its low‑cost membership, extensive library of masterclasses (investment, subscription‑site building, money‑saving, multiple‑stream income, etc.), and the promise that it equips members to “make, manage, and master money” during the downturn. The video ends with multiple calls to action to join rob.team immediately.

The Great Depression of 2023. One of the most important questions for you and your money is, when is the recession coming? Will it be a correction, a recession, or a Great Depression? This might seem somewhat negative. It actually isn't. You must prepare and plan for the worst so that you can achieve the best. So Ray Dalio, who's a billionaire investor who's well regarded, believes a correction or a recession or even a depression is coming soon. He predicted 3 to 4 years in a book he wrote 2 years ago, and I'm going to talk quickly about whether a correction, a recession, or a depression is coming. We're going to discuss, um, when exactly we think it's coming and how big and hard we think it's going to be. So I've got 2 questions for you right off the bat. I'd love you to share your thoughts in the comments. Number 1, do you think we have a Correction, recession, or depression coming? A correction would be minor. A recession would be somewhat painful, 6 to 18 months. And a depression could be 3, 5, or 10 years. So first thing, do you think it's a correction, a recession, or a depression coming? That's my first question to you before I riff in this content. Enid has said correction. My second question to you is, when do you think it's coming? Do you think it's 2023, which Ray Dalio thinks it's around then? It's been nearly 15 years since the last one. Generally, the average cycle seemed to be 15, 17 years. They're variable, of course. There's many factors. So, correction, recession, or depression, and when? 2023, 2024, 2025? I'd love your thoughts. As you know, I like to encourage discussion in the comments. Simon has said 2024. Okay, right, so here we go. Are you ready? Don't go anywhere for the next few minutes. Brexit, pandemic, lockdown 1, 2, and soft lockdown 3, massive inflation, massive taxation, the war between Russia and Ukraine, the fuel shortage and the energy cap rise, raise, rise, raise. The soaring cost of food and energy, the political unrest and craziness in our global political system, the massive government debt and the huge printing of trillions. All of this has happened in the last 3 years, the last 3 years. Have you ever seen such a shitstorm, clusterfluff, of so many things happening in such a short period of time? It was only the banking sector really that caused the last recession of 2008, and now we've had 7, 8, 10 significant variant factors all colliding, and that tells me that a depression is coming. Not a correction, not a recession, but a depression. And by that I mean long, longer than 18 months. Elon Musk is predicting about 18 months. I personally predict longer. Elon, if I'm right, you have to come on my podcast. And, uh, deep So not just 0.2% negative growth for 3 consecutive quarters, deeper than that because of all these factors, because the undersupply of commodities and, and resources, because of the huge debts, the huge taxations, the huge inflations, the soaring costs. Now some of you are saying the world is already in a recession, we're there or thereabouts, aren't we? Now you've got the technical definition of a recession. You can have a technical recession and not really feel it, um, because you could have 3 quarters in a row of negative growth, but that negative growth could be negligent and you don't really feel it too much. Or you could have 1 quarter where inflation goes from 5 to 10% and it hits you hard. Phil has said there'll be a depression followed by the Great Reset of 2025. So let me know what you think about the Great Reset and the New World Order. There are always changing world orders. We probably are coming to a changing world order, whether that's a new political system, a new economic system, a new financial system. That's another thing— the fiat currency system, you know, money being completely devalued and debased. That's another thing that's there for revolution and disruption. So I'm here to tell you that I believe a depression is coming, or at the very least a hard winter's recession. And by winter, I don't just mean a season. The difference, Jeff, between a recession and a depression would be how long and how deep. Now, all of this said, there is great opportunity. Um, now what? Why? Number one, asset prices are high, property prices are high. It's even hard to buy a secondhand car because secondhand cars are so high. Food is so high. Everything is so high. So a recession or a depression will pull prices back— prices of assets, prices of commodities, as long as there's not scarcity of them. So therefore, assets will be cheaper and things will start to get cheaper again. So that's benefit number 1. Benefit number 2 is when assets go down in price, they're more accessible for you to invest in. Because right now, property's been going up more than 10% a year, double-digit growth for 3 years. Who'd have predicted that with the start of the pandemic, we'd have seen double-digit growth year, year, year in real estate? No one would have predicted that. I certainly didn't. So those asset prices will come down, they will be more investable, they will have a better ROI and a better yield. So that's another benefit. The next benefit is there will be new business models that will solve big pains. So, um, in a boom there is less pain, there is more competition. In a bust there is more pain and there is less competition. And in a market where you want to start a meaningful business, more pain and less competition is actually good for you. Do you know more millionaires are made in recessions than any other time? Do you know that there is opportunity when the playing field has been wiped out to the ground and leveled? So there's a lot of good news here, but you must protect yourself from the Great Depression because what the Great Depression will do whether it's 2023 or 2025. And this might not be fair, but it is what happens, and there are reasons for it. But what will happen is the rich will get richer, the working class and the poor will get more poor, the divide between the rich and the poor will grow and grow and grow until there's a revolution. It will get to the point where people have had enough, and there will be some kind of overthrowing of the current power, political system, and financial economic system. This just happens. This happens through history, but it's probably not wide enough yet. The pain and the anger is definitely palpable. It's moving towards fever pitch, but it's not quite there yet. So what you need to do is learn to do what the rich do, learn to play the government and the tax system and the banking system at its own game, and leverage the opportunity, because the opportunity is there. You can't create a depression to unfairly make your opportunity, but you can leverage it when it comes. So here's what you need to do. Number 1, you need to be ready. You need to not— a lot of people are now saying, oh, I just want positive news. Oh Rob, this is scary. Oh Rob, I'm upset, I'm depressed, I just want good news. No, no, no, no, no, you have to be real. Now what the media do is perpetuate fear, but they rarely give you the solution. What I do is tell you what I believe to be the reality, and the reality isn't always nice and pretty and wrapped in a bow. But I do give you solutions. So number 1, you just got to be ready. You've got to expect it. Number 2 is you've got to have a plan. So that plan could be to start your side hustle. Finally, that plan could be to get ready to invest in inflation-beating, appreciating assets. That plan could be to double down on the business that you've got. Could be to do partnerships and collaborations It could be to look for a couple of career moves, you know, and get a couple of promotions, etc. You've got to protect your cash and your capital. You've got to get it out of inflation-eating liabilities like cash and savings and banks, and you've got to get it into appreciating assets. You've got to stop saving and start investing. These are some things you can do. There you go, there's 5 solutions right there. Across the bat, off the bat, from a standing start, or whatever other saying I might weave in. But here's the thing: you can't get ready, you've got to be ready. It's never too late to start, it's always too late to wait. So if you'd like to, on an ongoing basis, prepare and arm yourself, not just to be ready for the Great Depression, whether it's coming or whether it's a few years away, But it's actually to— how do I say this without sounding opportunistic? Fuck it, I'm just going to say it. Actually look forward to it. Actually don't just be ready for it, but say bring it on because you are prepared, because you have the right business models, because you have the right, um, investment of mindset and skill set. You understand how to invest, you understand how to beat the system at its own game, and the taxation system, the monetary system. So you're almost willing it on because more millionaires are made in a recession than any other time. The playing field is level and you have less competition. There are more pain points to start a business which offers meaningful solutions.

I'm just gonna put it out there, I believe there's a depression coming. I think it's bigger than a recession because of the multiple events that happened within a short 3-year period. In 2008, it was the banking crisis and the toxic repackaging of all the loans. Um, the kicking the can down the road of debt, basically. Um, but now we've had Brexit, pandemic, lockdown 1, 2, and soft 3, Russia-Ukraine war, political unrest, maybe governmental mismanagement, trillions of government debt, billions in interest, hundreds of billions in repaying the lockdown and all the ramifications of that, and the wars that have been financed. Massive taxation, massive inflation, all of this happening in the 3-year period, and you're telling me there's not going to be a depression? I think you've got to wise up. But remember, you can turn it into an opportunity. But in order to turn into an opportunity, you must act, you must invest, you must learn to earn.
