　　Amazon.co.uk Review

　　Wealth does strange things to people. It can either control them

or set them free. Jim Rogers falls into the latter camp. Like an

angst-free Marlon Brando, this Wild One quit his Quantum fund job

alongside George Soros at the age of 37, saddled up a powerful BMW

and revved his way into a personal dream.

　　In 1990, Rogers set out with his girlfriend on a marathon global

tour, chasing the summer and the prevailing economic climate across

six continents and reporting home in his easily adopted role of

Investment Biker. The result, even after all these years, is a

gloriously entertaining flight of reality. Part travelogue, part

investment guide, Rogers himself is the real centrepiece, at times

railing (if that's the right word) against local

custom/ideology/policy, on other occasions providing eye-opening

investment tips on where the sensible money should be going.

Shunning the usual tourist routes, Rogers' odyssey takes him

through landscapes and economies unique in culture and currency

where his natural charisma shines through in easy-going commentary.

It's not all image though; Rogers' predictions on emerging markets

have proved by and large to be unerringly accurate.

　　Whatever you want from a book, Investment Biker can probably

supply it: thrills, spills, rampaging elephants and economic

theory. Dig out those leathers and enjoy the ride. --Jake

　　Jim Rogers became a Wall Street legend when he and George Soros

founded the Quantum Fund. This is the fascinating story of his 1990

investing trip around the world by motorcycle, with many tidbits of

hard-headed advice for investing in foreign markets. --This text

title.

　　From Publishers Weekly

　　Those wanting to make a killing on the Botswana stock exchange

should pass up this book. Combining a travel narrative with

economic advice, Rogers, who teaches business at Columbia, recounts

his 20-month global motorcycle tour with his "tall, leggy and

blonde" 23-year-old girlfriend, Tabitha. As the two pass through a

region, he sizes up the local economy and recommends investment

strategies. Often Rogers''s tips seem on the mark, as in Eastern

Europe and Asia. Yet for other places, Africa in particular, he

appears uninformed. Predicting Zaire''s imminent collapse, Rogers

declares, "Zaire hasn''t had its civil war yet," ignoring the Congo

crisis of 1960-1965. Such inaccuracies mar what is otherwise an

entertaining and unique world tour. Overall, the intended breezy

blend of business and travel instead feels like the zigzagging of a

man who rarely leaves his preconceptions behind, no matter what

lies in front of him. Author tour.

　　Rogers, a notable Wall Street financier/investor who retired at

age 38 after making a fortune, is a born risk-taker. In 1990 he

took the biggest risk of his life by setting out on a BMW

motorcylce to circumnavigate the globe, accompanied by his

girlfriend. The journey lasted 20 months; the couple traveled more

than 60,000 miles across 51 countries on six continents. Why did

Rogers do it? Quite simply, to see the world. He offers insightful

commentary into the various places he visited both as a savvy

tourist and a knowledgeable investor. He found several countries

ripe for investment opportunities (notably China, South Africa, and

New Zealand) and determined others, in the parlance of Wall Street,

to be a "short sale." Some of his analysis is not original (e.g.,

his observations that the United States is becoming a "statist,"

quasisocialist state), but much of what he has to say is

thought-provoking. Recommended for all public libraries with large

nonfiction collections.

　　From Booklist

　　There''s something about a motorcycle that seems to arouse a

rebellious freedom and maverick wanderlust. Accompanied by a

friend, Rogers, a successful mutual-fund manager who retired before

he turned 40 and continued to invest well on his own, recently

completed a 20-month, 51-country, 57,354-mile around-the-world trek

on a BMW bike. The result is this unique and first-rate travelogue.

Rogers provides fascinating sketches of the people and places he

visited, but in addition to--and sometimes in spite of--the

colorful scenery, he also notes the per capita income, speculates

on the future price of land, analyzes the local economy, and

uncovers opportunities to be exploited. Throughout, Rogers rails

against statism, preferring his economics like his travel:

unfettered and freewheeling. Tales of Rogers'' trip have already

appeared in publications like Barron''s and Town and Country, so

readers will be looking for this book. David Rouse --This text

　　From Kirkus Reviews

　　A strange work of travel writing that might well have been

entitled International Investment and the Art of Motorcycle

Maintenance. Motorcycle enthusiasts and investors interested in

predictions about the world economy will enjoy this account by

fast-track biker and financier Rogers of his 20-month world odyssey

in search of financial enlightenment. In 1980, he retired from Wall

Street, a millionaire at the age of 37, intent on fulfilling his

dream of riding his motorcycle around the entire planet. After

years of battling with Communist bureaucrats in both China and the

Soviet Union, Rogers crossed China by motorcycle in 1988 and

received permission in 1989 to cross Siberia. With his girlfriend,

he finally set off in March 1990 for a world tour, commencing from

Ireland, traversing six continents, and finishing in Texas.

Rogers''s focus is economic; where other writers might see culture,

scenery, or people, he sees labor, resources, and capital. Whether

in Japan, New Zealand, or Mexico, his theme is almost obsessively

the same: The enemy of efficiency and productivity is ``statism''''

(excessive regulation) in all its socialist, social democratic,

fascist, and Communist variants. Rogers is bullish about countries,

like those in South America, where he sees statism on the wane,

while he judges nations that impose currency controls and trade

restrictions to be bad investment risks. Lamenting what he sees as

the US''s unsound currency, ballooning budget deficits, and

increasingly statist orientation, Rogers, more bearishly than many

will like, calls this country ``an obvious short sale.''''

Surprisingly uninformative about the many countries Rogers visited,

and his tendency to view all societies solely through the prism of

libertarian/free-market ideology ultimately proves wearisome.
