Waste of time

Despite how much I respect George Soros, that book is a complete waste of time

More of a philosophy book

I bought this audio book hoping to pick the brain of the so called great investor George Soros and learn profitable ways to tackle the stock market but what I got was a rerun of my university philosophy class of talking in circles to make the topic seem more sophisticated. Waste of my money. Maybe I need to listen to it a second time.
