Taleb on debt and risk and short termism
I wrote about Dr. Taleb and his hatred of debt, the author
of Black Swan. He is in the news for two new
video interviews. He would seem to be sympathetic with the ideas and proposals
here. Replace debt with equity--although I give a share to the workers
We want to be in a society where it protects against adverse events--again
the share economy. And we are rewarding short-termism. Let's hold up people's
pay and reward and incentives for a long time to see if they are truly acting
in the long term best interest of whomever they are supposed to be working for,
the students, the nation, the stakeholders or shareholders in the broad sense of
the firm.
