When Genius Goes Bankrupt and Fools Get Rich
Why do some investors make fortunes while brilliant mathematicians go broke? Why does your neighbor's cousin who "knows nothing about stocks" somehow triple his money while seasoned professionals lose their shirts? The answer isn't what you think. Success and failure often have less to do with skill than we'd like to admit. We live in a world where randomness plays a far larger role than our egos can tolerate, where luck masquerades as genius, and where we systematically fool ourselves into believing we control outcomes that are largely beyond our grasp. This fundamental misunderstanding shapes everything from Wall Street to Silicon Valley, from medical treatments to career trajectories, creating a dangerous illusion that skill and merit alone determine who wins and who loses.
