Lady Luck smiles on those who continue their efforts
Jim Rogers
Diversification is something that stock brokers came up with to protect themselves, so they wouldn't get sued for making bad investment choices for clients. Henry Ford never diversified, Bill Gates didn't diversify. The way to get rich is to put your eggs in one basket, but watch that basket very carefully. And make sure you have the right basket.

If you bail out every investment bank that gets in trouble, that's not capitalism, that's socialism for the rich
Jim Rogers
I don't think there is a sound UK bank now, at least, if there is one I don't know about it. The City of London is finished, the financial centre of the world is moving east. All the money is in Asia. Why would it go back to the West? You don't need London.
Jim Rogers
Paper money is made of cotton, and I'm long cotton, by the way. One reason I'm long cotton is because Dr. Bernanke is out there running the printing presses as fast as he can.
Jim Rogers
Commodities tend to zig when the equity markets zag.
Jim Rogers
Debasing your currency sometimes works in the short term, it has never worked in the long term and does not even usually work in the medium term. Lots of politicians like to do it because it is an easy way.
Jim Rogers
It's a lot of fun finding a country that nobody knows about. The only thing better is finding a country everybody's bullish on and shorting it.
Jim Rogers
Historically, there has been a bull market in commodities every 20 or 30 years.
