On today's episode, we have Jim Rogers, billionaire co-founder of The Quantum Fund and Soros Fund Management.
Mr. Rogers is known by many in the finance world as one of the greatest investors of all time.
From 1973 to 1980, the Quantum Fund portfolio gained 4,200% while the S&P advanced only about 47%. He is also accredited as the creator of the Rogers International Commodities Index (RCI) and co-founder of Soros Fund Management. In addition, Rogers is a holder of three Guinness World Records and is much more than just an investor and businessman.
Rogers speaks about "The Millennium Adventure," where he takes part in a journey spanning over 3-years in a unique Millennium Mercedes-Benz car, giving Jim Rogers and his wife, Paige Parker, a new way to discover the world. Rogers passes through 116 countries, more than 245,000 kilometers of land on six continents, finally ending in Iceland at the beginning of 1999.
Another topic covered this episode was Rogers' Quantum Group of Funds. Out of London, New York, Curacao, and the Cayman Islands, the Quantum Group of Funds helped investors build long-term wealth and create more diversification within their investment portfolios. Helping others meet their financial goals, the company works as a private family fund for the Soros family and retail investors.
Finally, Rogers talks about the Soros Fund Management, a former hedge fund, which has been impactful in the world of business for many years. The fund initially began as an investment firm and hedge fund, but now works as a private family office. Even today, Soros Fund Management is involved in the financial and business world by owning and investing in holdings and cryptocurrencies. Outside of business Jim Rogers created "The Rogers Foundation," a foundation in Nevada dedicated to providing art and education to young children. The foundation has donated more than $90 million to programs to support its goals. Enjoy!
