Amazon.co.uk Review
Wealth does strange things to people. It can either control them
or set them free. Jim Rogers falls into the latter camp. Like an
angst-free Marlon Brando, this Wild One quit his Quantum fund job
alongside George Soros at the age of 37, saddled up a powerful BMW
and revved his way into a personal dream.
In 1990, Rogers set out with his girlfriend on a marathon global
tour, chasing the summer and the prevailing economic climate across
six continents and reporting home in his easily adopted role of
Investment Biker. The result, even after all these years, is a
gloriously entertaining flight of reality. Part travelogue, part
investment guide, Rogers himself is the real centrepiece, at times
railing (if that's the right word) against local
custom/ideology/policy, on other occasions providing eye-opening
investment tips on where the sensible money should be going.
Shunning the usual tourist routes, Rogers' odyssey takes him
through landscapes and economies unique in culture and currency
where his natural charisma shines through in easy-going commentary.
It's not all image though; Rogers' predictions on emerging markets
have proved by and large to be unerringly accurate.
Whatever you want from a book, Investment Biker can probably
supply it: thrills, spills, rampaging elephants and economic
theory. Dig out those leathers and enjoy the ride. --Jake
