some interesting quotes from the Black Swan:
........
Some professions, such as dentists, consulttants, or massage professionals, cannot be scaled. there is a cap on the number of patients or clients you can see in a given period of tiem. .... In these professions, no matter how highly paid, your income is subject to gravity. you revenue depends on your continuous efforts more than on the quality of your decisions. ....
Other professions allow you to add zeros to your output (and your income) , if you do well, at little or no extra effort. Now being lazy, considering laziness as an asset, ad eager to free up the maximum amount time in my day to meditate and read, I immediately (but mistanely) drew a conclusion. I separated the "idea" person, who sells an intellectual products in the form of a transaction or a piece of work, from the "labor" person, who sells you his work.
If you are an idea person, you do not have to work hard, only think intensely. You do the same work whether produce a hundred units or a thousand. In quant trading, the same amount of work is involved in buying a hundred shares as in buying a hundred thoughsand, or even a million. It is the same phone call, the same computation, the same legal document, the same expenditure of brain cells, the same effort in verifying that the transaction is right. Furthermore, you can work from your bathtub or from a bar in Rome. You can use leverage as a replacement for wokr! Well, okay, i was a little wrong about trading: one cannot work from a bathtab, but , when done right, the job allows considerable free time.
