Jim Rogers glowing review of Singapore



Singapore has the best of everything—great education, great health care, everything works here. It's been an astonishing success story over the past 40 years. We're very pleased here. When I was selling my New York house, I almost backed out; I just couldn't bear the thought of leaving. But now I'm very happy here. I fly to New York and I realize I'm in a Third World airport. Then I get into a Third World taxi onto a Third World highway. The difference now just slaps me in the face. New York is a wonderful place, with the people and the vibrancy, but I can find the same vibrancy, if not more, in Asia.

Jim Rogers: Third world airport, taxi and highway



No doubt Singapore is a world class city/country. Jim Rogers in a recent Barrons interview talks about his admiration for Singapore and finds life there better than New York.

"Singapore has the best of everything—great education, great health care, everything works here. It's been an astonishing success story over the past 40 years. We're very pleased here.

Inflation is Everywhere


The price of nearly everything is going up. We have inflation in India, China, Norway, Australia — everywhere but the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Jim Rogers Gold Market Outlook




I know of nothing that has gone up for 12 years without a decline but I would also expect the correction to be different from normal. I am expecting another buying opportunity for gold in the next year or two and it will eventually go well over 2,000 dollars/ounce.
