How many people do you think saw financial mess coming?
Over the years I've seen many books on an immanent financial collapse, "The crash of 1999", etc. Did any of these get it right? If so, why didn't anyone notice? Yes, I'm from the 'we-are-in-deep-doo--doo' school of thought.
Additional Details
Stellar answers, keep 'em coming- I can't wait to google more.

It has been on youtube for a while and the Mayan Calendar predicted this thousands of years ago

So did Peter Schiff, Man of Truth and VisionVictory, and I knew this crash was going to happen last year at this time and have enjoyed watching it fall

Peace and light :)

The people that saw this one coming... were the ones that made a decent income, paid their bills, had low credit card balances and started scratching their heads when their friends that made half of their income were buying McMansions and leasing Hummers.

My circle woke up around 2004 and 2005 when we 'normal" people were wondering how everybody else bought houses with no money down and financed the Hummer with the equity in the house 6 months later.

I rent... because I can do the math... and still don't think that I can comfortably live on what I make and carry a mortgage.
The way this is playing out I will be in a decent position in about 2 years to buy a house that I can afford without using more than 28% of my gross income to pay for the mortgage.

I just wonder... where did all this money go that they blew in the last 5 years? Who has it now? Some people that played the "flip my house" game in the beginning got lucky... where did they put their money?

Many that saw their jobs disappear and the business' close all down major Industrial and business highways. It has only been a matter of time to see the collapse, and with the government doing things to help business screw over taxpayers it is not yet over.
Its one big mafia and the governement is the center of it

Plenty of people saw it coming. For one, Kevin Phillips with his book "Bad Money." In the investment/trading world there are two sides to every trade, and they have their respective names. The "Smart Money" and the "Dumb Money." The financial markets are about supply and demand. The reason the markets sold off so much is because the "smart money" (who so happen to be the deep pockets) were selling (shorting) the market while the "dumb money" was buy every time they were hearing CNBC saying "the bottom is in."
I was having a cuban cigar while in Vancouver in October 2007. There was a gentleman there talking with a business associate that I was eavesdropping on. He was talking about how he was shorting every spike in the market from that point on (the absolute peak in the markets occurred in November of '07). This "smart money" guy was getting short at nearly the absolute top of the market. Exactly how the smart money becomes smarter, richer, and a bigger player in these markets.

The mess hit harder and faster than most people expected. It is a worldwide mess at present. Read the article below by Michael Lewis who wrote the book Liars Poker

Very few if any. If they did, it was because of dumb luck and not skill. You could become a well-published author by writing books having to do with a coming "recovery" or impending "collapse" every few years.

I bought a condo in the "hot" real estate market in Chicago in 2003, when, at closer look, 15% of the "hot" downtown condos sat empty. Because I got a great deal, I was able to get out very lucky in 2005. Insiders with a clear mind knew since 1998, that the economy was build on sand. Only the artificial "hot real estate boom" let most people believe, it was a real economy and we will pay for that the next 15 years.
Our world economy model is since 300 years build on raping the environment. It's unsustainable for 8 Billion People with new technologies. We know that since the 60's.

Most old man in the power positions in industry and politics don't care for what will happen in 15 - 20 years, they are in for short profits and so we will go on.

Everybody was surprised at the violent end of the "artificial boom" this year, most people thought, it wouldn't get as low and deep, but we maybe will get much lower and deeper, if we don't change business models.

Just my 2 cents.
