Threadguy explains why Fooled by Randomness is the worst book he's ever read "Fooled by Randomness is my least favorite book I've ever read in my entire life. There's this category of trader that drives me crazy, these hyper-intellectualizing guys who try to justify why every single thing moves any direction, and Nassim Taleb is just perpetually hating on everyone making money because he believes his method is more Lindy. His whole bit is that in 99 out of 100 lifetimes he wouldn't blow up, but he just happened to live in the one reality where he's not rich. It's 500 pages of seething cope." "Mando said something to me that actually changed my life. He was like, you know you can just be in the best coin all the time, you can just always be in the thing that's going up, you don't have to DCA down. Zcash has gone from $500 to $1400, why wouldn't you just buy some at some point? You can rage at it and how it doesn't fit your risk management profile, or you could just buy some."
