Hunter S. Thompson
Hunter S. Thompson was an American journalist, author, and countercultural figure, born in 1937. He was the founder of the gonzo journalism movement and is best known for his books "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" and "The Rum Diary", which capture his unique, rambling, and often drug-fueled style of reporting. He was also known for his wild and eccentric lifestyle, and his love of guns, motorcycles, and hard living. Despite his wild reputation, Thompson was a very astute and innovative investor. He had a unique investment strategy that emphasized on using unconventional methods like using a swear jar to save money and investing in stocks, bonds, real estate and savings accounts. He believed that small savings can add up fast and through discipline and smart investments, one could secure a comfortable retirement. He passed away in 2005, but his legacy and investment strategy lives on.
