Histoire
A black swan is a highly improbable event with three principal characteristics: It is unpredictable; it carries a massive impact; and, after the fact, we concoct an explanation that makes it appear less random, and more predictable, than it was. The astonishing success of Google was a black swan; so was 9/11. For Nassim Nicholas Taleb, black swans underlie almost everything about our world, from the rise of religions to events in our own personal lives. Elegant, startling, and universal in its applications, The Black Swan will change the way you look at the world.

In his first book for a general audience, Mandelbrot, with co-author Richard L. Hudson, shows how the dominant way of thinking about the behavior of markets-a set of mathematical assumptions a century old and still learned by every MBA and financier in the world-simply does not work. As he did for the physical world in his classic The Fractal Geometry of Nature, Mandelbrot here uses fractal geometry to propose a new, more accurate way of describing market behavior.

It proposes enlightening similarities between, for instance, maneuvering in limited war and in a traffic jam; deterring the Russians and one's own children; the modern strategy of terror and the ancient institution of hostages.

Description
Number-one New York Times best seller
A bold work from the author of The Black Swan that challenges many of our long-held beliefs about risk and reward, politics and religion, finance and personal responsibility.
In his most provocative and practical book yet, one of the foremost thinkers of our time redefines what it means to understand the world, succeed in a profession, contribute to a fair and just society, detect nonsense, and influence others. Citing examples ranging from Hammurabi to Seneca, Antaeus the Giant to Donald Trump, Nassim Nicholas Taleb shows how the willingness to accept one's own risks is an essential attribute of heroes, saints, and flourishing people in all walks of life.
As always both accessible and iconoclastic, Taleb challenges long-held beliefs about the values of those who spearhead military interventions, make financial investments, and propagate religious faiths. Among his insights:
- For social justice, focus on symmetry and risk sharing. You cannot make profits and transfer the risks to others, as bankers and large corporations do. You cannot get rich without owning your own risk and paying for your own losses. Forcing skin in the game corrects this asymmetry better than thousands of laws and regulations.
- Ethical rules aren't universal. You're part of a group larger than you, but it's still smaller than humanity in general.
- Minorities, not majorities, run the world. The world is not run by consensus but by stubborn minorities asymmetrically imposing their tastes and ethics on others.
- You can be an intellectual yet still be an idiot. "Educated philistines" have been wrong on everything from Stalinism to Iraq to low carb diets.
- Beware of complicated solutions (that someone was paid to find). A simple barbell can build muscle better than expensive new machines.
- True religion is commitment, not just faith. How much you believe in something is manifested only by what you’re willing to risk for it.
The phrase "skin in the game" is one we have often heard but have rarely stopped to truly dissect. It is the backbone of risk management, but it's also an astonishingly rich worldview that, as Taleb shows in this book, applies to all aspects of our lives. As Taleb says, "The symmetry of skin in the game is a simple rule that's necessary for fairness and justice and the ultimate BS-buster," and "Never trust anyone who doesn't have skin in the game. Without it, fools and crooks will benefit, and their mistakes will never come back to haunt them."

An interesting rant
While presenting some ideas convincingly, this essay sounds like a long rant or stream-of-consciousness writing that, infuriatingly, lacks rigour in both its central claims, as well as around the edges.
If, according to the author, the only thing we can learn from, say, professors, is how to be one - does it not also follow that we've only learned how to write like the author? Broad claims are easy targets; I've only picked one at random.

Decent but scattershot
There are a lot of decent points but the guy seems to have no editor. He is still talking about what he's going to talk about in the book almost halfway through the book. I thought for a second I bought an ad for the book by accident instead of the actual book.

With great power...
We all sure have heard, "With great power comes great responsibility." It was made famous by Uncle Ben to the last couple generations. It resonates with this book for me.
I write this in the time of the film, Sound Of Freedom. (Its subject matter is the trafficking of children for the sex trade.) Some say controversial, and many say it is the time for its message. To address the "some," I often hear the bashing of the movie from those who have no, "Skin in the game" they don't have children not want them. So, as a parent, I do have skin in the game. I am also one whose children were almost harmed by a leader in the community that was captured and being a king ping in that despicable world. I have been biased now being a part of that for any movie that exposes it.
This book made it title so real to me after experiencing what I did, and now I am hyper aware of the heinous industry.
Manu will have their own experience that will allow them to understand whatever they will need to relate to this book.
What I will say is having read it, listening really, I can say it brings clarity on why it is important to gain it and be a part of owning you choices in life. It gains you authority in the subject matter. You can read or do. In doing so, you understand knowledge leads to wisdom and even discernment. Take action and apply this book for the real effect of what it means to have, Skin in the game.
(My hope is you never experience what I shared. It made sense to me to share in this review because of the time we are in and the impact of it subject matter.)

It was ok.
Basically a collection of little snippets of thoughts and meditations on a variety of topics based on his experiences. Some were interesting and profound with others less so. A book you may just come back to to look up specific points that resonated with you. Jumps around rather quickly and not my favorite offering of his but I don't regret listening to it.

I couldn’t finish the book
This book is nothing but unfounded opinion with no backing, on topics of which Taleb is not expert, written in arrogance and inflated ego. It is too bad, because Black Swan was excellent, and I was hoping for more of the same. I skipped Antifragile, and will not read it now, and I will likely share an overall poor opinion of the author, even though I thoroughly enjoyed Black Swan. Read Black Swan instead.

So. Much. Ego
I can't believe how self involved this author is. some good concepts and ideas, but honestly I have no trust in him as an individual for anything he says to be valid or true. Spends most of the book going off on vendettas against intellectuals and entire fields of study.
Curiosity of how ridiculous this book could get it the sole reason I finished it.
