Jim Rogers' best advice on investing... and life

Called the "Indiana Jones of finance" by Time magazine, Jim Rogers is one of the world's most successful investors. He co-founded the Quantum Fund before he was thirty and retired at thirty-seven.

Since then, he has served as a sometime professor of finance at Columbia University's business school, and as a media commentator worldwide. But ask Jim Rogers about his most important venture and he will answer without hesitation: fatherhood.

A Gift to My Children: A Father's Lessons for Life and Investing is Jim Rogers' love letter to his daughters, Happy and Baby Bee. Reminiscent of The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin, which was also written by a father to his child, Rogers' book is full of no-nonsense, unsentimental fatherly advice.
