More About This Book

Overview

Legendary investor Jim Rogers gives us his view of the world on a twenty-two-month, fifty-two-country motorcycle odyssey in his bestselling business/adventure book, Investment Biker, which has already sold more than 200,000 copies.

Before you invest another dollar anywhere in the world (including the United States), read this book by the man Time magazine calls “the Indiana Jones of finance.”

Jim Rogers became a Wall Street legend when he co-founded the Quantum Fund. Investment Biker is the fascinating story of Rogers’s global motorcycle journey/investing trip, with hardheaded advice on the current state and future direction of international economies that will guide and inspire investors interested in foreign markets.

Set against the backdrop of an exhilarating around-the-world motorcycle odyssey, Investment Biker paints a vivid picture of the current state and future direction of economics throughout the world. "(Written with) charm and incisive financial commentaries."--Entertainment Weekly). Photos.

    Mid-life Crisis?

    Read Jim Rogers' book and find new purpose for your own life. While not everyone can make millions, retire young and travel around the world on a motorcycle, they certainly can aspire to doing something with their life beyond the boring, repetitive drudgery that passes for 'living' in consumer-oriented America.

    A good read, and educational, too!

    Investment Biker wasn't at all what I expected. And that explains why it took me so many years to crack the cover. As it turns out Jim is one of the original "adventure bikers" and his journey was not only ambitious it was daring for the time period he did it. The book offers a snapshot of the world situation around 1990. And what otherwise might be considered drab, Jim's explanations of world economics and investments, is actually fascinating to read and not at all dull or dry. I highly recommend this book to those both adventure bikers and those interested in world economics/investing. Jim has a lot to say and I closed this book for one heck of a lot of respect for the man. You will, too.
