If one has a stake on a future outcome, his prediction is slanted. How could Elroy see that he has in store for him?

He'd have to contemplate the toughest luck of his life for next two decades. That is hard for him to believe. Thus he comfort himself in the vain belioef that that 2009 to 2018 will be a repetition of 1999 to 2008.

He can't 'see' IT because he has a stake on that outcome. And that outcome is, namely, reverting to poverty.

The drop from oilman -that same milk teat profession Maurice sucked- towards an alternative profession and now reality strikes him.
