Peter Bernstein who turned 90, has watched financial markets from the fifties as they recovered from the war and depression. He sees little reassurance from looking at the past and thinking that "the seas will be flat again." He thinks its vital that President Obama tackle the household sector and mortgages first, with forceful action to stop foreclosures by government intervention and compulsory mortgage modification.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
