Before you invest another dollar anywhere in the world (including the United States), read this book by the man Time magazine calls “the Indiana Jones of finance.” Jim Rogers became a Wall Street legend when he co-founded the Quantum Fund. Investment Biker is the fascinating story of Rogers’s global motorcycle journey/investing trip, with hardheaded advice on the current state and future direction of international economies that will guide and inspire investors interested in foreign markets. Review: Terrific book, eloquent writer. - This book is amazing. Jim Rogers can really tell a story in an entertaining and informative way. On the surface, it's a millionaire's journey around the world on a BMW bike with his girlfriend, but the REAL significance of this tale is world history, the drama (and trauma) of African border crossings, fall of Soviet Union, and finding investment opportunities in third-world nations. This trip took place in early-90s, but he writes "Adventure Capitalist" in 2003 when he takes a similar trip in a souped-up one-off Mercedes, with equally great shenanigans. Then he writes "Street Smarts" in 2013 after he's settled in China with his family. Jim Rogers is my new favorite author. The book itself is in brand new condition. Paperback published in 1993, and given as a gift to someone in 2006 (who wrote his name on title page) but evidently never read it because the spine isn't broken and there are no dogeared pages. And I got it for 70 cents. Jim Roger's book "Hot Commodities" cost me only a penny. desertcart rocks! Review: Open foreign bank account - Great investment classic. The one I love the most because it reads like a travel adventure with economics lessons sprinkled throughout the story. Jim and Tabitha go on a round the world motorcycle trip and Jim advises that people should open a foreign bank account to invest in a country's stock market although it is easier now since the book was written in 1990 to invest overseas without a bank account. A great business school lesson-and don't go to business school! warns Jim Rogers. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #344,599 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #357 in Travelogues & Travel Essays #521 in Travel Writing Reference #1,234 in Investing (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 430 Reviews | ## Images ![Investment Biker: Around the World with Jim Rogers - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71e+Trk5cZL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrific book, eloquent writer. *by C***S on April 17, 2014* This book is amazing.

The one I love the most because it reads like a travel adventure with economics lessons sprinkled throughout the story. Jim and Tabitha go on a round the world motorcycle trip and Jim advises that people should open a foreign bank account to invest in a country's stock market although it is easier now since the book was written in 1990 to invest overseas without a bank account.

While Rogers is clearly an expert on stock buying, he has a lot to learn when it comes to geography. He goes out on a limb when he suggests that the Galapagos Islands were populated by a seismic sea wave, caused by a large earthquake in South America, that carried people out there in boats. If he knew anything about seismic sea waves he would know that they are undetectable to the average human, until, that is, they reach land. He tells us that Tihuanaco, the ruins of a pre-Columbian civilization in modern day Bolivia, is both "on top of the altiplano" and "covered in thick jungle." Which, Mr. Rogers. You can only choose one, for never the twain shall meet. There are also lots of tips on how to take motorcycles across international borders, in case you ever come to that stage, or how to scope out a country for "investment potential," before it even has so much as a stock market. He gives lots of tax advice, favoring taxing consumption over investments and savings. My favorite quote: "Someday the world will come to its senses and legalize drugs." He rails againts the Catholic church and how it slaughtered millions of indiginous Americans in the name of "Christ. And he correctly points out that the conquistadors of South America were not the heroes portrayed in history books, but better yet, "thugs." Mere human beings might even be a better term, capable of all that is great, and horrible, in Man. He also decries government subsidies, especially agricultural ones such as the US sugar subsidy. He again and again points out that the greatest economies--Japan, Germany, Singapore to name a few--"don't tax savings." The great capitalist that he is, Rogers spends a lot of time anylyzing Russia, and the former Soviet sphere, where he decries the lack of consumer choice in places such as Moscow, where there were perhaps "3 or 4 places where one could actually sit down and have a cup of coffee." Later, he mentions that people in Siberia had never ever "seen a flyswatter" and speculates on how much money could be made introducing them. But while Rogers is clearly always looking to develop, looking to make a buck, including bringing lots and lots of "tourists" to Antarctica, he also devotes several pages to wildlife viewing. He fails to address the issue of how he can reconcile his love of wild places, while promoting development of those same "wild places" at the same time. While Rogers is clearly a freemarket kind of guy, one could call him a neo-libertarian as he professes his faith in mankind and the free market (he marvels at engineering projects such as Itaipu dam on Brazil/Paraguay border and goes on about the "universal genious of man"), at the same time, and fortuantely so, he decries the heavy handed approach the USA has historically diplomatically wielded, and understands why many Latinos in the Southwest still consider themselves as living in parts of Mexico, and not Texas, New Mexico, Arizona or California. Favorite quotes on America: "We sue at the first glitch," and "Our doctors are drowning in paperwork." Deranged Frenchmen wielding knives, Sahara panoramas, corrupt African officials, shady currency traders, the wide open vistas of Siberia, pounding surf of the Pacific, the seething jungles of equatorial Africa, snowcapped Andes, lamas, and much, much more. There are even a couple of appendices, one for the equipment they brought along, another for the places they stayed along the way. Four stars. Rick says chack it out. ## Frequently Bought Together - Investment Biker: Around the World with Jim Rogers - Adventure Capitalist: The Ultimate Road Trip - A Gift to My Children: A Father's Lessons for Life and Investing --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/7219095-investment-biker-around-the-world-with-jim-rogers](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/7219095-investment-biker-around-the-world-with-jim-rogers) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
