A short update this week as I’m travelling, don’t worry, nowhere luxurious, I’m in Cooma as I write. Because I haven’t the time to write anything interesting myself, I will refer you to someone else’s work, which in any case is a thousand times more insightful than my weekly observations.
I refer to this article, which is a transcript of a speech given by Charlie Munger in 2003 on ‘Academic Economics’. Like almost all Munger speeches, it drifts into multi-disciplinary learning, which I believe is one of the most valuable (and under-considered) concepts around.
I hope you enjoy the article as much as I do, if you do, you should consider laying your hands on a copy of Poor Charlie’s Almanac, which expands further on the ideas – Tony Hansen 16/10/11.
