Dr. Robert Genetski is the founder and President of ClassicalPrinciples.com, a global economic and financial consulting service. His experience in the world of economics and finance involves a unique combination of business and academic expertise. He has headed asset management, investment research departments and served as the chief economist for several financial institutions.

Robert Genetski is renowned for using humor and anecdotes to make complex economic principles easily understandable. For five consecutive years he has been recognized as one of the top 5 speakers in the field of Economics/Finance. He has appeared on CNN and Fox News and his articles have appeared in the Fortune, The Wall Street Journal and Investors’ Business Daily.
Robert Genetski is the author of a number of books, notably A Nation of Millionaires, Taking the Voodoo out of Economics, and Winning with Money. Dr. Genetski’s latest book, Classical Economic Principles & the Wealth of Nations has received rave reviews for its clear, concise explanation of the economic policies necessary to promote wealth and prosperity. He has served on the board of directors for a number of public companies. Dr. Genetski has been a longtime advocate of classical economic principles.
Robert Genetski has used these principles to create highly accurate economic and financial forecasts—correctly predicting stagnation in 1977, economic revival in the 1980s and 1990s, to predicting the historically low interest rates during the past decade. In early 2008, six months before the financial collapse, he joined President Reagan’s chief economic advisor in warning it was too late to avoid a recession since “The Fed has inadvertently adopted an overly restrictive policy that has hastened the spread of bankruptcies and financial failure.”
On two separate occasions Genetski has been singled out as the number one interest rate forecaster in the United States.

How do audiences generally describe your talks?
The most common reaction is people telling me that they understand economics for the first time.
What is the most unique experience you have had as a result of your job?
Some of the most unique experiences include testifying before the United States Congress, having my books translated into multiple languages, regularly appearing on television and hosting my own radio program.
What is your biggest source of inspiration?
Financial distress and poverty are the consequences of bad policies. I gain my inspiration from attempting to prevent policy mistakes and helping others avoid the adverse financial consequences of the negative policies.
How do you incorporate humor when talking about economics?
The key to humor is telling a story or anecdote and adding a surprising or unexpected twist at the end. To be effective, the anecdote has to be related to an economic point I’m explaining to the audience. Humor can be a great way to not only entertain, but to help the audience grasp a complex economic issue.
Why did you decide to study economics?
I studied economics to learn more about what determines the wealth of nations—why certain individuals and countries prosper and grow while others do not.
