Become a farmer. If you want to have a great future for the next 30 or 40 years

Jim Rogers : Agriculture is probably the safest place in the world right now as far as I’m – but Lelde, I don’t like to use the word safe when I talk about the investing world. There’s no such thing as safe, at all. There’s no such thing as safe when you’re talking about investing. Even if people put their money in cash – what kind of cash? If you put your money in the wrong cash, if you put your money in Icelandic Krona a few years ago, you thought you were doing something very conservative and safe, and you got wiped out. So you have to be careful using the word safe. Agriculture in my view is going to be one of the best areas of the world economy in the next few years, whether you buy farmland or buy farm products or become a farmer - Lelde, become a farmer. If you really want to have a great future for the next 30 or 40 years, learn how to drive a tractor.

Gold over $2000/oz in next few years

Jim Rogers: Well, yes absolutely. Gold will certainly go over $US2,000 sometime in the next few years, there’s no question about that - maybe go much, much, much higher if they continue to print money in the developed world the way they have been. Just in the meantime, I would not be surprised at a correction as I say, it is correcting. I hope it continues to correct, I hope I buy more.
