Dear friends, hello once again!
In case you have failed to recognize the man on the picture, this is George Soros, who is celebrating his 79th birthday today. He was born in pre-war Hungary and is now living in the United States and doing business all over the world. He is famous for his stock and exchange market speculations, having crushed the British Pound and the Thai Bath through his investment moves in recent history. He was also one of the few wise investors, who predicted last year's financial crash and withdrew his funds from the market before they were seriously damaged. You can read more about his life and career here.
As for my personal experience with George Soros, I have to thank him and his foundation Open Society for my college education. My Alma mater, the American University of Bulgaria was founded largely with funds of George Soros and I am grateful for that. Of course, there is a lot of bad that could be said about the man, but one thing is for certain - he managed to make more good than bad in his life and is a good example to follow for any youth striving towards riches.
And to wrap it up, let's take a look at a wise saying by the man:
"Once we realize that imperfect understanding is the human condition there is no shame in being wrong, only in failing to correct our mistakes."
Let's be our best always!
