Well, it's hard to dismiss someone who was responsible for making lots of money for George Soros when they were hedge fund partners. He probably could buy everyone who posts and lurks at this board many times over.

Soros himself is very complimentary of Roger's analytical abilities, while somewhat disparaging of him as a trader.

And actually yes, I do know him a little bit. We spoke on the phone twice a couple of years ago, about a certain stock we were both involved in. I found him to be genuinely as nice and unassuming as he appears on TV.

While I stated I do not agree with his inflation outlook, and have been a believer in lower interest rates for almost 20 years, I never ignore what he's saying.

Any financial problems could cause higher rates in the US, which would give us one heckuva triple top in bond prices to deal with.

Jim Rogers is a very bright and experienced money manager, and his analysis of world economies is especially worth paying attention to.

Track record:

1. Quantum Fund (produced mongo returns in the 1970s)

Not recent enough? How about . . .

2. His 1997 Barron's picks, up 90%+?
