I started to read Nassim Taleb’s “The Black Swan” and found it incredibly boring and dull. I’m only on page 50 but it’s a real challenge to get through it. I found this interview with Charlie Rose that was a little more accessible and entertaining and there are other videos as well at the bottom of the page.

It’s far easier for me to listen to an interview while I do other work online than tie my time up reading a book that I have to force myself to keep going. There was a small discussion on Twitter about this book and he’s what Maoxian had to say about Nassim.

Another link here to a Jim Rogers interview (12/12) on Bloomberg talking about the auto bailout that recently failed in the Senate.
