Episode 23: Jim Rogers, Legendary Investor & Philanthropist

                                                          Jim Rogers is a legendary investor, philanthropist, and author. In 1973, Jim Rogers and George Soros founded one of the most successful hedge funds in history, the Quantum Fund. By 1980, Quantum Fund returned more than 40 times the initial investments (vs ~50% for S&P). Unlike Soros, who continued running the fund, Jim retired from the industry and went on to travel the world, the adventures that he covered in his books. He now lives in Singapore and continues investing his own wealth. In this interview, we discussed the global economy, the Federal Reserve, Inflation, investing, and Jim's life and career.
