It is good. It's a lot better than his other books and also contains much of the same material too. That's the one to read if you're gonna read one.

funny boomer shits on modern economics
0 insight but a fun read nonetheless, will make you feel smart in a "fuck the experts" way
also contains spoilers for the rest of taleb's work so it's a win on all fronts really

It’s a slightly more sophisticated self help book. libertarian robinsades and other assorted woo-woo

>> No.17759708

i thought a self help book is a book that gives you specific advice to help yourself. this is not a book like that
