Jim Rogers has some useful thoughts about the economic crisis.
01/02/2009
Jim Rogers a co-founder of Quantum Funds along with Soros, talks to Maria Bartiromo. He thinks LTCM or Long Term Credit Management, which was rescued by the Fed and Treasury in the Greenspan-Rubin era, should have been allowed to fail. The economy would have been able to handle the resulting dislocation.It would have sent strong signals to the banks and made them cautious about overleveraging and bad bets. Lehman would have taken time to recover and things would be different today.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
