Covid 19: Politicians Have Overreacted

 

Highlights from the interview:

"Being a young person in America right now is not a good thing to be."

"In 2009 we had the H1N1 virus in America well they didn't close McDonald's (MCD) they didn't close the airports this time for whatever reason politicians seem to have overreacted."

Jim Rogers: Where I'm Investing Right Now

Anything that I'm buying and I have bought a couple of things... I'm buying one because they're so beaten down that no matter what happens I don't think they're gonna go down much more.

I'm gonna give you an example.I'm not buying Venezuela, I cannot buy Venezuela because I'm an American and it's sanctioned so Americans cannot buy assets in Venezuela. But someone who is able to buy Venezuela could probably buy Venezuela now because no matter how bad things get Venezuela is not going to go down very much and it may if any and it may start reviving.

So there are things like that. Now again, I'm not buying Venezuela, I would like to but I cannot but I'm trying to find things like that. Stocks, companies that are in that kind of situation and i have bought a couple of those recently.

Investing: Russian Bonds

I'm not here to give hot tips but one might look at Russian ruble bonds again. They do have high yields and it's not a credit risk. Russia is not going bankrupt whatever happens.

People Think Investing Is Easy. It's Not!

This is 2020 who wants to wait till next week to get rich? We want to get rich this week! We want a hot tip that's gonna make us rich very, very quickly so that we don't have to think about it and that's part of the problem. Everybody thinks this is easy.
