Formal education can be very valuable , 1st it forces you to accomplish learning in a limited time frame, 2nd it exposes you to multiple sources of knowledge and accelerates your growth , it makes you have experiences you will probably not know exist or have the stamina or fortitude to complete. One of course should keep growing, education should not be the end but only the start of life long learning.

Great video. Excellent summary. I wasn’t familiar with the term “anti-fragile” until I watched this video, but I like it and will use it going forward. Thank you!
The catch in your idea is that to really get the value from the books YOU, the individual, has to do the exercise that Picking Nuggets is offering. The value of the offer is mostly an illusion. The value of wisdom cannot be consumed only earned. That’s why there’s nobility in being in the entertainment business. 100% of the value is obtained through passive consumption
Question on Seneca: can someone explain, from a psychological point of view: given the wealth and power Seneca had, would it have been possible for him to truly face abject poverty or tough circumstances to keep him grounded? He had a conscious safety rope and I wonder if a person is truly in abject poverty, would stoicism even apply.
As I was studying stoicism in school it seemed like a dumb fairytale, so something was clearly not adding up. Fortunately at the time I was already starting to detox myself from the bad mindset of today as I had just started my first entrepreneural experience as I turned 18. So I started talking about philosophy to fellows I met at events or online and quickly realised they were always talking about stoicism and many almost "worshipped" it, then my own research about it started, and this was the moment I understood that all there was to school was what legal piece of paper it would have left me and skills (almost exclusively soft ones) it had taught me (on this part it was really good though). Hence I realised I better started fresh with everything I had learnt, since how people perceived it is nonsense (especially history, philisophy and authors of the past, as well as the sense and meaning of literature to which unfortunately many teachers and writers are oblivious to)
Seneca/Tim Ferris talking about living a couple of days a month on the cheap only lands with 1st world, imagine giving this advise to a single mother in a village in a 3d world who has to feed 3 kids. Or someone fleeing the war with only a shirt on their back. But yes, for first world problems all of this is useful.
Imagine the ignorance and damage done if all teenagers decided that high school teachers were "second rate" and they could do better enrolling in the "university of life". This man might be clever, but he is dangerously arrogant, devoid of humility and self-satisfied.
Actually I think the Saudis are doing a good job in utilizing their resources. On the contrary, Lebanon has all the stressors and yet, these stressors didn’t force them to grow.
Wow he should make a book called "What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger", you know, lazily swiping a common cliche for a book title, just like he did with "Skin in the Game"
You’re contradicting yourself. You’re equating trauma with a limited stressor. Of course psychologists do not talk about post traumatic growth as defined by you since a limited stressor, in the context of optimal growth, it is not trauma. A limited stressor in this context occurs within the optimal window of challenge and development. In this context, trauma is by definition NOT a limited stressor. It’s a stressor that overwhelms the internal human system which stays locked in it to a degree that makes it very difficult to unlock. So, no, I’m the context of optimal growth trauma is not a limited stressor.
It is interesting to hear philosophizing about the way one NORMA?LY chooses to live, when nl parent or other adu!thas retained the capability to love, care, or even give the most minimal attention beyond shelter, and farcical dlgmatism. Life is inherently hedonic - pleasure, in the very breathing and senses. Stoic appears to involve the belief that nature is to be tolerated, rather than loved. Yet, by adolescence, one pursues difficult, seemkngly impossible complex and necessarily incremental goals. These are all pleasures. When seeing joe rogaine, the epitome kf antisocial ardogance, i nearly ceased watching, as he was instrumental in kntroducing nazi-equivalent hubris and arrogance intktheUSA earlier thjs month. But he, too, will die,
That particular risk is scalable. Thus he applies his "Precautionary Principle". It all depends on the nature of the risk (scalable or not) and the implied long term assymmetry
It's interesting that masks have become political. I didn't see any or hear comments about surgeons or medical staff wearing their masks in the past. Why would they wear them if they do nothing to protect the wearer and the patient.
@@memumanother5956 it's not about the effectiveness (which is debatable), it's about the freedom to choose whether or not to wear a mask, and the way people who try to live their lives in normalcy without a dirty rag on their face were attacked and literally hated for it by others who think it's ok to remove people's freedoms because they are scared of something. It's a slippery slope.
@jimjones3482 I agree so much political rubbish. It was the same for hydroxychloroquine and they did a trial with 3 times the dose and many people died to try to show it was dangerous I've taken it and ivermectin all safe after. However best to use logic and if I think it's risky then I will wear a mask.

Yes! …and BTW the author himself has many “higher education” diplomas 🤔
Useful nuance, what have you done this month to continue growing?
Charles Darwin was a MD and Einstein got a PhD at the same time as he worked on the Theory of Relativity, soo. Perhaps formal education is useful...
@eirikbelisarius1100 no doubt

Harm avoidance or neuroticism are fragile characteristics, methinks. Obsessive compulsiveness is too.

That video got pretty dumb. As soon as the Taleb talking ended it goes to a guy talking about being born rich. As if Nassim wasn’t
He is an incredibly bad speaker, good lessons though
Very ironic by Nassim - that dude is one of the most fragile people out there.
You might want to back that statement with some arguments. Otherwise it’s as informative as a fart in the wind.
