Review
"This book is like Mal - who is a rider, a rocker and a rebel. He doesn't just think outside the box - he drags it behind his Harley on a cross-continent adventure and then runs over it a few times for good measure. The Bay and Wall Street guys are gonna hate it - Main Streeters should embrace it. One ton of fun!" BJ Del Conte Chase Producer, BNN - Business News Network Business Producer/Anchor - CP24-

Jim Rogers stealing my thunder? GOLD!
I can’t help but admire anyone who rides a bike for long distances, and Jim Rogers is one of those who takes the cake. I met him in Scotland at the Chartered Financial Analysts Institute’s Annual Conference (2010). Although my … Continue reading

Portfolio managers become very adept at covering their everyday-idiot side and at a moment’s notice switching on their learned-professional alter ego. Like the Two Face character from Batman comics, it’s often difficult to determine who it is you’re actually talking … Continue reading

Want to be a money manager? Become a celebrity!
I still don’t understand why people pay much heed to headlines in newspapers (if it’s in the news it’s already old news, and can’t make you money) or to those who’ve unilaterally appointed themselves as experts on money matters. Some journalists are pretty good, but … Continue reading
