Finished reading Jim Roger's - Investment Biker & Adventure Capitalist. My new roommate recommended it to me. It was an excellent read. The book is about a Columbian Professor who travels around the world in his bike and with his girl friend. Interestingly for every 1 page of adventure related content there are 2 pages of excellent insights on the countries market conditions. He compares investments among developing countries, describes the wealth of Japan, and critiques the American foreign policies. Before he began his epic journey Jim Rogers heads a hedge fund company at Wallstreet and makes most of his wealth in commodities trading. The sequel book is about how he re-travels the world 10 years later, only this time in a different vehicle (Mercedes customized convertible) and with a different girlfriend.
Currently reading - Wikinomics.
