A Look at 40 years from now

But along comes Joel Kotkin with some observations that may make these strategic defaulters kick themselves a few years down the line. Kotkin is the author of a book, “The Next Hundred Million: America in 2050.”

Listen to Joel's Extended Interview on Minnesota Public Radio

From the show: "A leading expert on economic and social trends gives us his predictions for what America will look like in 2050. Joel Kotkin expects our cities and suburbs to become more densely populated, and we'll have an advantage over other countries because of our ethnic diversity."

Review at the Motley Fool

"This is an interesting book. It looks at the demographic and social changes that will happen to the US between now and 2050 as the US population grows from 300 million to 400 million.

Joel on LA Talk Radio

Last week Joel was an in studio guest at LA Talk Radio for a great discussion on the future of American cities and hopes for our families.

Having people commute from one computer screen to another doesn’t make sense."

Praise for The Next Hundred Million

Kotkin has a striking ability to envision how global forces will shape daily family life, and his conclusions can be thought-provoking as well as counterintuitive. It's amazing there isn't more public discussion about the enormous changes ahead, and reassuring to have this talented thinker on the case. — Jennifer Ludden, NPR national desk correspondent
