Hi,

I have a interview in 24 hours with Jim Rogers. Late Sunday evening NY time. As you some of you know he describes Austrian economics as best fitted to his belief system.

I thought I'd ask if anyone would like any particular questions asked. I can't guarantee I'll ask it but I'll try my best if it's reasonable.

My main questions will be his opinion of how the government will react to continued bank losses and economic turmoil. Precious Metals vs Agriculture Commodities. The Keynesian Economists continued use of Japan has an argument against inflation. QE. Foreign Government's reaction to a devalued dollar.

I'll be uploading the interview by Monday.

I can answer that, with the growth in the middle class in asian nation there will be a growing a demand rice and sugar like there will be for any commodity and natural resource

So the price on any food item is to be bullish, but these are some of the popular food items so they have the most room to go up, plus I'm sure there is supply issues which rogers can explain.


Question #1:what's the best way to learn mandarin

Questions #2: Has he ever heard Alex Merced or VoteMerced.com

Question #3: What are his thoughts on the Phillipines as a place to move to and start a business (I'm extremely bullish on the phillipines, but i'd like to get jim rogers take)

Jim Roger in his last couple interviews has said he's stopped buying gold and silver but continues to hold what he's got, while I think he thinks that gold/silver will continue to appreciate I think he's expecting a correction which I guess happened last week.
 
There appears to be dissention within the Fed on the decision to proceed with QE2. I'd like to know Jim's thoughts on the probability that the dissention can overcome Bernanke's support for it, and what he sees playing out should QE2 fail to materialize.
 
- Ask his take on the situation of the EU vs the USA. Which one does he think is in worst situation?

- Ask if he has a clear view of what will happen in the USA: stagflation or hyperinflation?

I watched his conference at the Mises Institute the other day and he said that its certain that a new one is coming. The videos are at the Mises Institute Youtube page: http://www.youtube.com/misesmedia
 
Thanks Hugo. Sounds like he is focused on Bernanke. He didn't seem aware of the current dissent to QE2.
 
You could ask him what he thinks of the "other" precious metal palladium and how he thinks the alleged depleted stockpiles in Russia and South Africa will play out with it. Also, does he expect it to outperform the other metals, even silver?

Thanks in advance for uploading the video; please post the link when it's up!

Palladium also has a very bullish-looking cup and handle formation right now. :eek:

hugo thanks for posting that misesmedia interview. What great seminar! I've taken note of the questions so far, I'll do my best to include them in the interview and yes I will post a link. If anyone has got any more let me know it's not for another 9 hours.
 
I'd like to know why he bailed on America.

cause he has kids, I think it's fair that once you have kids that you become more worried about a better life for them instead of trying to fight a fight you can't win in their lifetime.

I don't plan to have kids anytime soon to fight for america, cause if I had kids now, I'd probably have to take similar action.
 
What can we do to restore an Honeset Money System in America?

Does that sound like a good question?

It is. Jim Rogers always like to give a populist impression, like the boy from Alabama (he is). But the guy studied history and philosophy in one of the best college of the country, so he knows history. I read one interview with more deep historical questions and his answers were very good.

That is a good question.

I would like to know what he thinks about Foreclosuregate and Mortgagegate, and how it will affect the economy.
 
Ask him if the dollar will go through significant inflation or hyperinflation, and if so, which currency will replace it as the world reserve currency.
 
Jim Rogers has talked about the possibility of social unrest in the United States. Can you ask him to elaborate on this... ask him to talk about the possibility of living in a Police State under Martial Law and just how bad he thinks it could get. Could we see a repeat of Nazi Germany with concentration camps in the USA?

Does he think we could see a worldwide systemic collapse in the financial system? and would this result in world wide anarchy? or will governments all around the world impose police state measures to "keep the peace" ? Or is this type of outcome unlikely... and we will most likely just see weaker economic conditions in the Western World and a lower standard of living... but not to the point of total economic Armageddon?
