Jim Rogers; Random House; 112 pp., $16
This new book is a heartfelt, indispensable guide written by legendary investor and best-selling author, Jim Rogers, for his daughters to find success and happiness in life. It has a wide appeal among those who are keen to secure their financial futures as well as investors.
He offers advice with his trademark candor and confidence, but with added paternal compassion and love. He reveals how to learn from past triumphs and mistakes in order to achieve a prosperous, well-lived life.
The writer draws from examples from his own life such as focusing on excelling in the things which you like to do ― he was five when he started collecting empty bottles at baseball games instead of playing.
He also advises readers to trust your own judgment: Rogers sensed China's true potential way back in the 1980s, at a time when most analysts were skeptical of its prospects for growth.
