do not get an MBA and go to Wall Street, go and get a farming degree and move to Asia.

Jim Rogers : Because you asked where the best areas of the world economy are going to be, that's where the shortages are developing. In the 1970s, most of the world's economies were in the tank, but commodities boomed. Justin, we had one of the great world markets of history in commodities for about 15, 20 years in the '70s, between the '60s and the early '80s in commodities, because we had huge shortages everywhere and because governments everywhere printed money. Well, governments are printing money again. It's a wrong thing to do Justin, but that's all they know to do. So between shortages of supply and money printing, if you want to be in the dynamic parts of the world economy, don't get an MBA and go to Wall Street, go and get a farming degree and move to Asia. - in BBC News
