Thanks for your hard work and your contribution to raising the collective awareness of society. Highly appreciated

[@AverageAngel]

"those that do not take risks should never be involved in decision making" - that's deep

[@xbozon6712]

thats stupid. if you take risk it does not mean you are conscious about it, so I would say that people who do not take responsibility should not be involved in decision making

[@AverageAngel]

@@xbozon6712 well i think that's part of it too, you have to share in the risk and responsibility, the downside and upside, as he is saying. It can't be asymmetrical either way

[@junkiri6970]

No its not.

I just want to say that this os one of the best Channels of KZbin. Love from Brazil

[@atableinthewilderness680]

I hope your channel continues to grow. Relaying information in a concise and simple manner (as to a child) is an incredibly rare and powerful skill that even the most intelligent don't possess, which is why they make horrible teachers.

[@nikolayzapryanoff1032]

Perfectly structured. You're getting to send a solid message with the video. I can do nothing but admire you for this one.

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

I appreciate it a lot Nikolay Zapryanoff! Glad you enjoyed the video 🙌

[@Instawise]

The curse of modernity is that we are increasingly populated by a class of people who are better at explaining than understanding, or better at explaining than doing. Nice summary .. Keep it up...

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Hahaha Nassim Taleb vs Academia 😁

[@fthn10]

this review makes me want to read the very book

[@jeffreykozma8068]

Good video. Keyboard cat made me smile. The point about the silent majority reminds me of a Napoleon quote: "Ten people who speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent."

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Cheers Jeffrey Kosmas 🙌

[@dionysianapollomarx]

Dude, I was looking for a good summary. Now I found it. You have a playlist for Incerto?

[@dmm615]

Thanks again! You've tripled in subscribers since then too. Routing for you!

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

No worries man, thank for your continued support! I'm very happy (and a bit perplexed) to see that the channel has grown so fast lately 😁

[@salimazizi6048]

You teach so well with amazing, easy-to-understand examples!

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Hey Salim azizi60 I appreciate your support! Glad that you like the content, and I hope that I'll be able to provide you with more value on this channel in the future! Cheers! 🌟

[@ComicBooks4Lizife]

I have learned a lot from your videos, will check out some of the books you summarized and appreciate your efforts.

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

ComicBooks4Lizife, I appreciate it! Cheers!

[@semeunacte]

I honestly love your channel, thanks a LOT!

[@gokulbasnet1216]

Favourite channel for stock market knowledge. Love from Nepal

[@smallfry8788]

You should have used Eddie Lambert of Sears as an example of a CEO with no skin in the game and taking action that favored the executive team.

[@valentinstoyanov304]

I read the book last year and like it a lot. Taleb is a moral pillar of our time!

[@LHKKKing]

#1 use someone else;s skin to cover yours - the bankers with bailout #2 put your skin on the line - the entrepreneur with risks. #3 your skin is used by #1

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Hehe, or you'll make sure to finance your company with an absurd amount of debt instead of equity. Have the bankers at the wrong end of the asymmetry for once 😁

[@ColtraneTaylor]

Thanks for the summary. It becomes much easier to understand the "works" of yet another rationalist simpleton. I can dispose of the book now.

[@DJT-j9g]

Thank you for the effort. Love it. What's your favorite information source for identifying companies with leadership, who have meaningful skin in the game?

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Thank you Sam Khandelwal 😀 Ownership in the company which represents a significant part of the manager in question's total wealth is a great incentive for doing well 👍 Information about the number of shares that the top management own can usually be found in annual reports from the company, but I guess it varies from one country to another. Co-founding is of course a great indicator too - large ownership or not. Emotional incentives rather than economical ones.

[@gedewahyu.p]

Thanks for your summaries, I really enjoy them🙂

[@curiousworldview]

I love this series Erik! Thank you so much for putting it together, you inspired me to goo ahead and make a series of videos on Nassim Taleb as well that I just published on my channel. Fortsätt det fantastiska arbetet bror!

Cheers and thanks for the support! Best of luck with your channel!

[@yuxiang1911]

great videos sir. i myself am a fan of NNT, this is an excellent summary.

YuXiang CYX, thank you! Taleb is truly inspiring, his books are paradigm-challenging and provide a lot of examples, which I enjoy a lot

I think you confused credit default swaps and collateralized debt obligations(CDO)

[@deardaughter]

This was great thank you.

[@jacksonbrown2827]

Hi...are you reading all these books or audio!? If both...which medium you find retains more information? Thanks again 🙋

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

I am using both at the same time, whenever that is possible. All books don't come with audio unfortunately 😊 Difficult to say which one that gives me the most - but I know that combining them gives me more than any single one of them, so I just always go for that 👍

[@Stjernberg274]

I really enjoy your content and the work you put in Swedish Investor! I was surprised though by your comment about vegan/plantbased food having "fictional health benefits" when all research and science points to it having exactly that (people having more normal BMI, having less lifestyle diseases like diabetes, heart problems, cancer etc). So there is no doubt it is more healthy. A lot of elite athletes perform better on vegan diets and recover faster after workouts. Just my 2 cents. Keep up the good work :)

[@privateuser8712]

The comment felt to be an oddly unfounded opinion thrown in to an otherwise impartial video.

[@Stjernberg274]

@@privateuser8712 Thats the thing, its neither an opinion or unfounded. Its science. And its counter productive to the whole dietary green transition the world needs to go through if we frame all the good changes in a negative way.

[@drjitendratanna8713]

Thank you for this series of videos. I would be obliged if you can explain to me "having a portfolio insured at -15%" and how one can achieve that? Thanks again.

[@SingaporeSkaterSam]

I tried the book but found it insufferably rambling, with lots of petty score-settling with other authors and academics (apparently that's the Marmite like charm of Taleb). I seem to remember something about Lindy and still not having a real clue what that means (survivorship being an indicator of continued survival...? Profound!) ~ 15:30 Management stock options nominally give the executives skin in the game - but are often gamed so much that they become asymmetric (Rubin trades), ending up little more than guaranteed bonuses with no call back if TSHTF later. Investors who are meant to guard against such management excesses rarely do, which seems to be a major flaw in shareholder capitalism.

[@ChrisInvests]

Do you read all of these books?

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Among the videos that I've published I've read all the books but one of them ... See if you can identify which one 😉

[@hoastbeef1202]

what does the minority rule have to do with skin in the game? who has skin in the game in this case?

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

The minority has 😊 it just shows how some people may have greater incentives than others. For example the person who is allergic to peanuts. If there are no peanuts on the plane, he'll get a reward - he'll get to travel to the place he wanted. However, if there are peanuts on the plane, he'll be penalized - he won't be able to board the plane at all. The "majority" do not have skin in the peanut game because they don't have this downside.

[@jackgoldman1]

Buffet is not an inventory. Buffet is a business man, a speculator, who buys and sells companies.

[@avelmira]

A lot of founders make really bad CEOs because of ego clash so there ought to be an upper limit to skin in the game. Too much skin in the game doesn't make for good leadership.

[@garyhost1830]

It's hard to admit, but I totally agree.

[@liuzhen2008]

how does minority rule has to do with skin in the game?

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

The minority who is deciding are those with the most skin in the game 😊 They get to decide simply because they are most involved in the outcome.

[@liuzhen2008]

@@TheSwedishInvestor huh interesting!

[@hanglethu487]

The examples are rather extreme. I think “skin in the game” means you have something (not everything) especially money that will be lost if you fail.
