    Street Smarts – Adventures on the Road and in the Markets is a book that offers insights on economics and investing, based on Jim Rogers’ lifetime of experience in finance.

    Summary of the Book

    Based on his experiences from his early years of growing up in Demopolis, Alabama, to his years propelling crew at Yale, to co-founding the Quantum Fund with George Soros, Jim Rogers shares his invaluable insights and financial advice on today's ever-changing financial world. Rogers is certain that Southeast Asia and China will be the foremost drivers of the world economy in the 21st century, and that America will be on the declining edge. He believes so strongly in Asia's economic future, that he moved his wife and two young daughters to Singapore from New York in 2007, to make them get used to that world. His daughters are now known to be fluent in Mandarin!

    Must read for a finance professional

    This is a good book for a finance professional. It gives a nice perspective from a renowned investor/speculator with a long term horizon. Not all speculation is short term and it makes sense to have long term view.

    an autobiographical financial masterpiece

    This book while being a autobiographical account of Jim Rogers life, is also a masterpiece for anybody wanting to develop a perspective on investing, for understanding why, how economies rise and fall. A very enjoyable read. The book deals his own evolution as a husband and father.

    Not very educational

    This might be of interest to you, if you are just starting off on learning investing. This could help with some excitement and inspiration. Otherwise, this book is totally passable. It felt like I only ended up learning more about his college life, his late marriage, and a thing or two about his daughter(s?).
