No doubt Jim Rogers is one of very few true investing legends. He is dubbed the "Indiana Jones of finance" for his world travels and adventures.

I first learned about Jim Roggers when I was trading commodities about 35 years ago. He has stuck with it and has a life of experiences I would have liked to share.

He is in Singapore. I am in the heart of China.
