Quote from Chausey:

Is that a guess or is there a story behind the bad blood?

Quote from r-in:

Many years ago I was a Jim Rogers fan. I now realize like every guru, he isn't right that often. He made a fortune when he was right, and that is great, but he has had numerous misses since then, but is still looked to for his 2 cents. Not to say he doesn't know what he talking about, but I give him no more weight than anyone else including myself. I spent 2 years telling everyone I knew that we were going to fail miserably very soon. I was early by 2 years and other than shorting a couple stocks didn't take my own advice. I said a few banks and all the homebuilders would get killed, and the one I told friends regularly was Countrywide. I actually never shorted Countrywide, but I did short Lehman. I didn't make enough to retire from anything, as I just wasn't going to go all in with my money. Jim Rogers went all in with other peoples money and made a fortune. Now he can afford to go all in with his and be wrong for a long time before it matters to him. Again not that he doesn't know his stuff, but you can make alot of calls and survive, and then make one correct call and look like a genius.

Well, he's been long commodities and gold for the last ten years, and all they've done is go up. Nobody can time the market perfectly, but I think Jim Rogers is excellent at providing a good macro picture.

I was wondering if one of them wrote something in a book they wrote. It's obvious they don't have each other on their Christmas card list.
 
His views on commodities and the weakening dollar were dead on.

I like hearing his perspective but its not gospel. Take it with a grain of salt when listening to anyone for that matter

No they very very rarely mention each other.

If someone mentions Soros to Rogers he always goes off subject...

Soros has praised Rogers as an amazing analyst many times...

Also no picture of them together to be found anywhere.
 
In my opinion, Soros belongs intellectually among the greatest philosophers, scientists and mathematicians the world has yet known.
I read Rogers book on commodities. While it would be nearly impossible to match Soros' rare intellect, it's clear that Rogers too has a keen mind. Rogers was working for Soros. Obviously, when you have two bright, capable, ambitious individuals working together, neither will want for long to be under the thumb of the other. But I have never read or heard any remarks that would suggest that they don't have high personal regard for one another.

SouthAmerica: You forgot to mention that:

By the way, George Soros is a “Zionist” and a regular attending member of the Bilderberg Group annual meeting.

In 2001, Denis Healey, a Bilderberg group founder and, for 30 years, a steering committee member, said: "To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair.”
