Taleb-sitat (for langt for Twitter)

Taleb (2010: xxv):

“I disagree with the followers of Marx and those of Adam Smith: the reason free markets work is because they allow people to be lucky, thanks to aggressive trial and error, not by giving rewards or “incentives” for skill.”


Jeg tror (dessverre?) jeg er ganske enig. Man må likevel ikke misoppfatte "hell". Det krever (som oftest) innsats og teft for å oppnå dette hellet. Som Pasteur en gang sa: "Luck favours the prepared".
