Jim Rogers - Adventure Capitalist


I'm currently reading Jim Rogers' book entitled "Adventure Capitalist". Jim Rogers is a very successful investor who retired at 37 after making a fortune in the stock market. He believes that life is more than just money and he wanted to experience life as much as possible having earned the option to do so with his fortunes.


He and his fiance Paige took a 3 year trip to travel across the world in a modified Mercedes SLK / G-Wagon. See www.jimrogers.com. It's unreal! This guy drove this bright bumble bee yellow sports convertible with big wheels around the world! How could he not get robbed and killed just from the attention alone!

Did I mention that Paige is a beautiful young lady who is the daughter of one of Jim's clients? He asked Paige to travel around the world with him on their first date. Good stuff.

Jim is an insightful investor and one of his goals while traveling was to find good investment opportunities. He can see a place for what it is from the ground up.

I'll be certain to share with you the most interesting stories from this facinating book. Stay tuned.
