| About Doug Casey |
|
Doug
Casey is a highly respected author, publisher and professional investor
who graduated from Georgetown University in 1968 as a classmate of Bill
Clinton. (Doug didn't inhale, either.) Doug literally wrote the book on
profiting from periods of economic turmoil: his book "Crisis Investing"
became the best-selling financial book in history, remaining #1 on the
New York Times bestseller list for a then-record 29 weeks... Then Doug
broke the record with his next book, "Strategic Investing", by receiving
the largest advance ever paid for a financial book.

Doug
Casey has visited more countries than anyone I know. He goes to the
most far-flung reaches imaginable. What does he look for? Investments,
real estate, bargains, possibilities, surprises, opportunities, ideas,
adventure. At last count Doug has lived in 10 countries and visited
over 175, It would difficult to find anyone who knows more about international
investments & international living than Doug. His book, The International
Man was instrumental in inspiring this website. What makes Doug unique
is that he goes beyond the beaten path. He looks at investments and nations
that no one else has the imagination to consider, he travels to remote
locations and looks at real estate. Rational Speculation can only result
from a mind that is fully engaged. Doug, who currently divides his time
between homes in Aspen, Colorado; Auckland, New Zealand; and Salta, Argentina,
has written newsletters and alert services for sophisticated investors
for over 28 years.

| The Eris
Society |
Doug
Casey is also the founder of The
Eris Society - The Eris Society was started
in 1981 when Doug decided to invite a few of his friends to a party at
his home in Aspen. In subsequent years, the original invitees expanded
the gathering by inviting other individuals who enjoy sharing ideas on
a wide range of topics.
Eris
gatherings are opportunities to meet some of the most interesting people
in the world. They are a broad spectrum of individuals who have distinguished
themselves in their fields: film producers, doctors, scientists of all
persuasions, historians, artists, philosophers, educators, multimillionaires
and hobos (at least one anyway). All are in regular attendance. Well over
fifty percent of the attendees are published authors and many publish newsletters.

The
essence of Eris has always been to give people who should know each other
an opportunity to meet. The social activities offer ample opportunity for
extended and stimulating discussions. That's why the dinner parties at
night, usually sponsored in the homes of some of Aspen's leading citizens,
are as much a part of the conference, in their own way, as the daytime
speeches.
