well be good at it.

Dreaming with BRICs: The Path to 2050The Goldman Sachs global economics team released a follow-up report to
its initial BRIC study in 2004.
Goldman Sachs argues that the economic potential of Brazil,
Russia, India, and China is such that they could become among
the four most dominant economies by the year 2050.
It also predicts China and India, respectively, to be the
dominant global suppliers of manufactured goods and services
while Brazil and Russia would become similarly dominant assuppliers of raw materials.
By 2025, it is calculated that the number of people in BRIC
nations earning over $15,000 may reach over 200 million.
According to the report, first China and then a decade later
India will begin to dominate the world economy. India has 10 of the 30 fastest-growing urban areas in the
world and, based on current trends, we estimate a massive 700
million people will move to cities by 2050. This will have
significant implications for demand for urban infrastructure,real estate, and services
