Some Taleb wisdom during these volatile times. Phonies everywhere providing useless predictions. Find your barbell and stay your course.

1) Predictions don't count. It's their payoff, what you do w/them (x is not f(x) ). Academics don't get it.
"Speculators are not paid in true or false, but in $)
2) Indeed, I don't run the account. But I save the tweets as I am too lazy to have a notebook.
Thanks, Cetin.
I can't talk on behalf of Nassim Taleb, as I am sharing his wisdom on the Twitter account. What I understand from him is that it doesn't matter whether the prediction is right or wrong if one doesn't have skin in the game. - Cetin, curator of @TalebWisdom account.

The world of a thousand lies where people learn to only trust what they know firsthand is more robust than the world of a single lie from a thousand miles away that everyone is coerced into accepting as truth

The leading metric for value on Twitter?
The Click Over Effect:
@startuployalist
@Philosophy280
@TalebWisdom
@mikekarnj
@naval
@gigglybeth_
These accounts provide so much value in their writing I stop what I'm doing in this noisy world midstream & click over to read them

It helps to read work of @nntaleb on a daily basis, even a few pages. NNT's quotes and one-liners from @TalebWisdom @GetWiser are great for getting the uninitiated interested in his work, but regular reading makes detection of BS and missed probabilities much reliable. Re-read.

Skin in the Game by @nntaleb is the non-fiction book I've read recently that has stuck with me the most.
This is a thread of my highlights, with no additional commentary. If they're interesting, I recommend reading the book.

Interventionistas (Iraq, Lybia, Syria) such as Thomas Friedman (@tomfriedman @NYT), thanks to industrial scale, have each caused more deaths than any artisanal serial killer.
