This book published in 2001 predicted China would collapse by 2011. In late 2011 the author adjusted the prediction to 2012, and to "bet on it". I doubt bookies take those kind of bets but I hope he lost money on it.
He had the wisdom to not make another specific prediction since, unlike the China Bad YouTubers.
Should've known that from the beginning, that's prophecy grifting 101.
