Summary
"Hungarian-born George Soros is unquestionably one of the world's most powerful and profitable investors. Dubbed "The Man Who Moves Markets," Soros is an investment wizard, speculator extraordinaire and magnanimous philanthropist. This book chronicles Soros' life - how his family evaded capture by the Nazis, and how Soros used his business acumen to become a billionaire. His fame took a quantum leap in 1992 when he amassed over $1 billion in profits with the collapse of the British pound. No need to hedge your bets, this book will entertain and enlighten readers on the life of one of the most fascinating financial gurus of our time."--BOOK JACKET.
