Jim Rogers : Because you asked where the best areas of the world economy are going to be, that's where the shortages are developing. In the 1970s, most of the world's economies were in the tank, but commodities boomed.
Justin, we had one of the great world markets of history in commodities for about 15, 20 years in the '70s, between the '60s and the early '80s in commodities, because we had huge shortages everywhere and because governments everywhere printed money.
Well, governments are printing money again. It's a wrong thing to do Justin, but that's all they know to do. So between shortages of supply and money printing, if you want to be in the dynamic parts of the world economy, don't get an MBA and go to Wall Street, go and get a farming degree and move to Asia. - in BBC News

We have to change our tax code dramatically
Jim Rogers : First they need to get a little education about the rest of the world and about their own economic situation and then we have to change our tax code dramatically. We have to cut spending with a chainsaw; not with an axe, with a chainsaw.
We got troops stationed in over 120 countries around the world. I mean the politicians have sent them there you know, and those military establishments are making things worse for America, not better. We got to change our total way of thinking just as the British did when the British started facing reality. - in BBC News

Farming is going to be one of the best professions of the next 10 or 20 or 30 years
Jim Rogers : The only areas of the world economy I see that are going to be dynamic are natural resources; farming is going to be one of the best professions of the next 10 or 20 or 30 years. - in BBC News

I hope it is only one decade of loss that we lose in America
Jim Rogers : I hope it's only one decade of loss that we lose in America. Japan has had two lost decades now, as you probably know, and America is in much, much, much worse shape than Japan.America is the largest debtor nation not just in the world, in the history of the world. We have serious problems. They are not addressing the problems in America. So I hope it's only one or two decades we lose. It may be three or four. - in BBC News
