OK so you need dramamine to read his website http://www.fooledbyrandomness.com (please note he does not want any suggestions on how to improve his website that looks like it was designed by Hunter Thompson on acid) and the guy's got a ego the size of Montana, but he also has some big points. Worth reading his website and his books--
here's a clip -- he could use a little media training
My favorite part is his calling for a recall of the Nobel Prize for Economics for Modern Portfolio Theory and Black-Scholes (i guess we could send out the repo man and sell them on ebay) http://www.fooledbyrandomness.com/FT-Nobel.pdf
He refers to himself as the Distinguished Professor of Risk Engineering at NYU. What's to engineer? Everything in the universe is a train wreck waiting to happen or a white swan trying to lays enough eggs to make a black swan.
