Jim Rogers investment style is not boastful

Jim Rogers refers to his investment style as a "lone wolf". He likes to form his own opinions and not relies on others for investment advice.

"I’m afraid I don’t pay much attention to other people. I’m pretty much a loner. I have found in my career that when I listen to other people I usually make mistakes and lose money. So I try not to pay much attention to other people. There are plenty of smart investors in the world, but I just don’t move in those circles."
