Nassim Taleb<\/a>\"\" explains why we should expect “unexpected” economic events<\/span><\/p>\n

Nassim Taleb, the former Wall Street trader who published a book called The Black Swan<\/a> back in 2007 speaks out on the economic crisis. Nassim Taleb was born in Lebanon<\/a>, and lives mostly in New York<\/a>. The book argues that most economic models fail because they don’t take into account rare, high-impact events that wind up driving history. (Taleb calls these events Black Swans.) The argument came out looking pretty good after the 2008 financial crisis<\/a>. The short version: Get rid of debt. This is about 20 minutes.
