    With the rise of fascism in 1936, due to the anti-Nazi environment, the family changed the name to Soros from Schwartz. Due to its meaning, Tiwdar liked the new name, because it is an alternative . Although no specific meaning is mentioned in Kaufman's biography in Hungary, Soros means "next in line, or named successor" and in Esperanto it means "high flight". [10] His son George was taught to speak Esperanto since birth and so he is one of the rare desirable Esperanto speakers . George Soros later said that he grew up in Yidudi's house and that his parents were alert about religious origins. [11]

    Early life edit ]

    In March 1944, when Soros was thirteen years old when Nazi Germany took military control over Hungary [15] Soros used to work for the Jewish Council , [8] For theexecution of anti-Nazi policies of the Nazi and Hungarian government, which was established during Nazi occupation of Hungary. Later Soros told the writer Michael Lewis about this time:
    The Jewish Council said to distribute deportation notices to small children. I was asked to go to the Jewish Council. And there I was given these slabs of paper ... I was told to report in the Rabbi seminary at 9 am ... and this list of these names was given to me. I took this slip to my father. They immediately recognized it. This was a list of Hungarian Jewish lawyers. He said, "You give these slips to them and say that if they report, they will be deported." [16]
    To save his son from the capture of the Nazis, Soros's father gave a bribe to an employee of the Ministry of Agriculture, so that in the summer of 1944, Soros could stay with them as his dutiful daughter. Even when the government officials were seizing Jewish property, young Soros had to hide their Jewish identity. [17]
    The following year, Soros was right in the Budapest war between the Soviet and German forces in the city's house-house During the Hungarian Belgaum Inflation in 1945-1946, Soros traded first currency and jewelery.

    However, Soros understood that unless they invested on their behalf, they would not make money with the concept of reflection. They began to find out how to invest. From 1963 to 1973, he was named Arhold and S. Worked in Blocroid, where he was the vice-president Finally, Soros concluded that he was a better investor than a philosopher or manager. In 1967, he established a foreign investment fund called First Eagle to run himself In 1979, the company created a second fund for the Soros, the double eagle hedge fund . [19]
    When the investment rules restricted their ability to operate the fund on their own, they left their position in 1973 and established a private investment company, which later became a quantum fund . He has said that in order to encourage himself as a philosopher and writer, he intended to earn enough money from Wall Street - he calculated that it would be possible to make $ 500,000 after five years and that would be enough.

    Eventually, the Bank of England withdrew the currency from the European Exchange Rate Mechanism, devalued the pound sterling , and in this process Soros earned an estimated 1.1 billion US dollars. After that, they started calling "the bank of England a man making a bitter" In 1997, the UK Treasury estimated the cost of Black Wednesday at 3.4 billion pounds.
    October 26, 1992, Monday The Times published the quoted Soros as saying: "We got our position value about $ 10 billion from Black Wednesday. We have it planned to sell more than that. In fact, when Norman Lamont said devaluation Soon after, he said he would borrow approximately 15 billion dollars to save pound sterling, then we were happy because it was just as much as we wanted to sell. "
    Stanley Druckenheimer , who used to trade under Soros, saw basically weakness in pounds. "Soros's contribution contributed to him a great deal." [21] [22]
    During the Asian financial crisis in 1997, the then Prime Minister of Malaysia, Mahathir bin Mohamed , alleged that Soros was using his controlled money as a punishment for welcoming Myanmar as a member of ASEAN . Soros refused to charge Mahathir ASEAN's US dollar GDP declined to $ 9.2 in 1997 and $ 218.2 billion (31.7%) in 1998.

    They credit their success to their ability to acknowledge their predictions.
    I'm just rich because I know when I'm wrong ... I basically have survived by recognizing my mistakes. I used to get backaches due to the fact that I was wrong. Whenever you are wrong you have to fight [take] flight When [I] make the decision, the backache goes away. [23]
    In February 2009, George Soros said that the world financial system has been effectively decomposed, they also said there is no possibility of a short-term solution to the crisis. [24] "We saw the collapse of the financial system [...] It was put on life-saving measures and it is still running on life-saving measures.

    Philosophy edit ]

    Education and belief edit ]

The need of their current philosophical commitment to the principle of Popper is in the philosophy. In an interview with 60 minutes , Soros said that he did not believe in God. [52]

    Reflexivity, financial market and economic theory edit ]

    Soros's writing is entirely focused on reflexivity , where the bias of the market leads to market changes, the possible change in the basic concept of the economy. Soros argues that such transactions in the fundamental concept of meaning disorder are marked by imbalance rather than balancing, and under these circumstances the principles of traditional market (' efficient market estimates ') do not apply. Soros popularized the concept of dynamic imbalances , static imbalance and close conditions of equilibrium . [19]
    Reflexivity is based on three main ideas: [19]
    1. Reflexivity is well-tested under special circumstances, where the investor's bias increases and spreads throughout the investment area. Examples of factors (a) avail of equity, or (b) such a prejudice, along with the habit of following the inclination of bookstores can increase.
    2. Reflexivity stops waiting, because it is exposed only to certain conditions; As the process of character is considered to be the best in terms of probability of balance.
    3. Investors' observation and involvement in the capital market may influence the assessments and the basic circumstances or outcomes from time to time.
    Example of reflexivity in the modern finance market is found in debt and housing market equity. Lenders started making more money than the money available from buying a lot of people in the 1990s. Many people bought houses because of paying huge amount, so the prices of these houses started to increase. Lenders looked at their balance sheets not only did they not know that they had given more credit, but also found that their equity, which supported the loans, that is, the value of the houses, was up (because more money was relatively The houses were behind the same amount). In this way they will lend more money, because their balance sheet is good, If prices rise, then they give more credit. It was further expanded by public policy. Many governments see the ownership of the house as a positive result and hence the homeowner gets first grant and other financial subsidies - the capital gains tax to affect housing to buy housing as a rebate of the house - which means That house purchase is seen as a good thing. Prices increased rapidly and loan standards were relaxed. The main issue of reflexivity is that it explains why the market revolves around the clock and does not survive in a balanced way - they go beyond the target or stay under the target. Growth and loan standards were relaxed. The main issue of reflexivity is that it explains why the market revolves around the clock and does not survive in a balanced way - they go beyond the target or stay under the target. Growth and loan standards were relaxed. The main issue of reflexivity is that it explains why the market revolves around the clock and does not survive in a balanced way - they go beyond the target or stay under the target.[19]

    Consider the potential problems of free market systems edit ]

    Despite working as an investor and currency speculator, he says that current economic speculation has made the healthy economic development of many undeveloped countries hollow. For many of the world's problems, Soros markets consider the underlying failures in conservatives . His opposition to many aspects of globalization has made him a controversial person.
    Victor Niederhofer said about Soros: "The biggest thing is that George believes in a mixed economy that a strong central international government is necessary to repair the excesses of selfishness."
    Soros points out to make a difference between market participants and those who work to make changes in the rules for the market participants to follow. According to Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohammed , from July 1981 to October 2003 - Head of Quantum Hedge Fund, 1997 when Thai currency hands forward to the US dollar, then in the East Asian market, partly responsible Soros is responsible for the financial crash. Can. According to Mahathir, after three years of the accident, in East Asian stock market and real estate, Soros invested in the short-term reflective disinvestment, then ran away in indecisive rush after getting the first sign of currency depreciation . [53]Soros responded by saying that Mahathir is "making him a scapegoat for his mistake", the promise of Mahathir's ban "made a recipe for disaster" in currency trading (which the Malaysian finance officer canceled in a hurry) and It is also said that Mahathir "himself is a threat to his country". [54]
    In an interview given in the context of the financial crisis of 2008, Soros called it far more serious than the crisis that came in the 1930s. According to Soros, this prediction that without the need of government intervention in financial matters, the market itself will improve, as market conservatism is "a kind of theoretical redundancy". In Soros' thinking, market mood - There is a strong bias, optimism / pessimism in the market mood, because the market looks at reality - "In fact, can make itself very strong, that is why it was initially self-contained But ultimately, there is a series of unspeakable and suicidal resonance / explosions or bubbles. " [55]

    Views on anti-Semitism edit ]

    In the Jewish Forum in New York City on 5 November 2003, in the recent resurgence of anti-Jewish protests , Soros partly accounted for policies of Israel and the United States and successful Jews like himself:
    There was a resurgence of anti-Semitism in Europe. Policies of the Bush Administration and Sharon Administration contributed to this. This was not anti-Semitism, but anti-Semitism seems obvious. I criticize those policies ... If we change that direction, then anti-Semitism will weaken. I can not see how anyone can face it directly ... I am also very concerned about my role, because the new anti-Semitism believes that the world is ruling in the Jews ... an unexpected result of my actions As ... I also contribute to that image. [56]
    In the next article for the New York Review of Books , Soros emphasized that
    I do not support myths propagated by Israel's enemies and I am not blaming Jews for anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism gave birth to Israel prematurely. Neither Israel nor critics of those policies should be held responsible for anti-Semitism. Along with this, I believe that attitudes toward Israel are influenced by Israel's policies and attitude towards the Jewish community is strongly influenced by the pro-Israel lobby by successfully crushing different views. [57]

    Property edit ]
