I’m not sure why, but I’ve always been a super
fan of Jim Rogers. As for other
legendary investors, I never felt a connection…
Not sure why this is. But it
doesn’t really matter, I guess.
So, this book is the first book I got from the
library. It felt like I was spending too
much money on books… So, I finally
decided to go to the library! The awesome thing is, there is this new
software called OverDrive that works with libraries in the Pittsburgh region. I can borrow an audio book “online”… I don’t even have to go out to borrow books.
Going through an audio book is a lot slower than
reading (maybe 2x slower). Sometimes if
the voiceover is monotone, it adds risk to the drive… But, what can I say. It’s more productive than not listening
during “mandatory drive time.” I
calculated my weekly commute is about 6 hours -> about the same time to
finish an average audio book. This can
help me achieve my annual goal of reading 1 book a week without even reading… Feels kind of like cheating…
Anyway, about this book. I thought I’ve read a lot on
business/investing/stocks already. However,
the perspectives in this book are very humbling. My eyes opened a bit more, my perspectives
broadened a bit more. I enjoyed the read
In this book, Jim Rogers is BOLD. He calls people out (by name) and make bold
statements regarding their incompetence.
We are generally taught to keep or polarizing thoughts to ourselves… And no matter what, don’t leave negative
comments in writing… Don’t send out
e-mails if you aren’t ready for the world to see… High respect on how yuge Jimmy’s balls
are.
Then finally on a side note… The sky is falling…
