    Alpha Trader and dealmaker like this.
  5. I think some of his points (and you can find him posting along similar lines elsewhere) are quite important. The idea of risk management adding small edge (avoiding really dumb decisions), rather than answering all life's questions was good. I just find his style quite reasonable and refreshingly pragmatic.
