Audio Books Rock!
A few weekends ago, the wife and I went down to Mexico for a day trip with another investor couple. Had a great time and had great seafood. On the way back, which was a 4 hour drive because of the wait involved in crossing the border, we listened to the audio book version ofAdventure Capitalist : The Ultimate Investor’s Road Trip.
Its the story of an investor who drove around the world in a mercedes roadster and documented his journey. Its incredibly interesting and teaches you about planning for road trips and of course investing in foreign markets.
I wasn’t a big fan of audio books before this, but now I’m sold. They’re especially useful on long trips and help keep you calm during traffic jams. I also recommend going on long trips with investors too!
