George Soros is one of the most interesting, inspiring, and influential investors of our time. From his upbringing during World War 2, to his large hedge fund positions that broke the Bank of England. George Soros is a self-made billionaire, hedge fund manager, philanthropist, and philosopher, certainly an individual we can learn from. This Bloomberg video, "Eye to Eye," features an engaging interview with George Soros and profiles his life from his formative years - his inspirations, learnings, challenges, through to the years where he wielded significant power and influence as an investor. The video also talks about his work toward "open societies," what he sees as the irreversible decline of the west, and how the old way of thinking about economics needs to be revamped. Additionally, Soros reviews his theory of reflexivity as a concept for understanding global financial markets and economies. Watch and learn from the master.
