» Rande - I've wondered about some of Jim's recommendations in the past

I've wondered about some of Jim's recommendations in the past (go long Ceylon Tea, etc.) and his fixation on inflation in the early-mid 90s just at the time when secular disinflation was taking hold, but I will say this -- he's not just a tremendously successful investor who made tons of money for other people while creating his own personal fortune as an active money manager, he also seems like a terrific human being. Someone you'd like to get to know better.

» Karin_ - Hello, Jim and Paige

If you ever have a chance to go back through
Germany, I would like you to see "Rothenburg ob
der Tauber" It is one of the Jewels of the
Middle Ages.
It is totally surrounded by a tall City Wall for
protection from enemies.
It was built in the 10th Century.
It was not destroyed by the war and has many
historical sites.

This is one of my favorite places to visit when I go to Germany. I will never miss to stay there
for at least 2 days.

Here is Jim's and Paige's Web-Site: http://www.jimrogers.com

» JenL_2 - Jim Rogers on CNBC last Friday

These posts copied from "Kirk's" thread:

Kirk

Don't know if you caught Jim Rogers last friday on cnbc. I will try to summarize. He said the bear market started in 1998 from his perspective. Sixty percent of stocks were down in 1998. He showed the following figures: 1998 advances 3928 declines 5870 1999 advances 4224 declines 5467 2000 advances 4655 declines 5104. He said this was masked by a lot of money that was flowing into a few large stocks. He covered a lot of his short positions last November and is now more net long than he has been in quite some time. He said "I am optimistic'. He sees a bull market for natural resources beginning that should last for five years. He feels that the surprise will be that the price for coal natural gas and oil will stay high for the next five years. Prices are currently consolidating but he expects them to move higher. I have tried to follow Jims thinking since I first discovered him on cnbc. He looks at things from a different perspective than the majority of people. I guess that is one of the reasons I like him because I do too. It is hard to find out what he is buying and selling. You could find specifics when he was part of the Barrons roundtable. If you are interested in learning more about his techniques there is a chapter in two books by John Train. Money Masters of Our Time 2000 and The New Money Masters 1998.

Given the current situation with China You should read the article on his website http://www.jimrogers.com about the bombing of the Chinese embassy. He was travelling in the country at that time. I just heard Bill Oreily claim that the Chinese were saying exactly what Jim claimed in the article. You have got to read this one.

In response to message posted by JeffChristy:

capt bowtie is one of my all-time favorites. he's been predicting an explosion in commodity prices for six years. the first time the nasdaq closed over 1000, then went back under 1000 a short while later, capt bowtie predicted "the nasdaq will never again top 1000." this was probably 1996 or 97. the guy has been hilariously wrong - at least in public - for years and years and years. as the nasdaq topped 2000 and 3000 and 4000 and 5000 over the years, i kept begging cnbc to run the "never again" video. guess they don't want to embarrass the old phony.

In response to message posted by Kirk:

He said the government is lying about inflation and that it is much higher than reported.

Regular readers know that I have expressed this same opinion a few times in the past. It doesn't mean that I am bearish on stocks; I am not. But I do believe that the official CPI numbers are a crock because they underweight service sector prices, especially the costs of taxes, utilities, and other services related to home ownership and maintenance.

You must be kidding, you think that two bit pf__ck knows anything. He's a moron. You mean you followed that pervert with that young hoe of his on their round the world tour. Don't ask me how he got rich. That pig Soros was probably "doing him". Soros and Rogers, what a pair of degenerates.

In response to message posted by Kirk:

Need a better SIGNAL to go short. I am very happy to hear that ZEEMMY is buying Q's when they are more than 30% above their lows. And he claims to be value player and "I buy at the lows?"!

He is entertaining, but doesn't know shit about Q's, or tech scams.
