Why Jim Rogers Believes 2012 Will Be Alright, but 2013 and 2014 Could Be Disastrous

Because governments around the world are printing money, of course!

Here’s the latest CNBC interview with Jim Rogers , along with my notes:

2012 could be alright thanks to 40 elections worldwide (and hence, increased money printing) – but 2013 and 2014 are the real dangers
Still long real assets – such as commodities – and currencies
Believes there is no longer deflation in Japan (it’s a product of government reporting numbers)
Owns some Japanese equities (via the index)
Slipped in a nice qualifying quip towards the end that “Someday none of us are going to own paper money anymore – but that’ll be later in the decade”
