Nassim Nicholas Taleb Has Some Advice For You Rookies Out There

Advice given to any young person:

"I can't tell you what to do. I can tell who what I've done. I've instinctively never gotten into a zero-sum business, such as academia, sports, bureaucracy, etc. The mark of a zero-sum business is hierarchy."

(Academia is a quarter position.)
