3 quotes from Skin in the Game

  • "Skin in the game is about risk and real exposure to the consequences of one's actions, not about the benefits that can be gained without any accountability."
  • "Intellectuals are often seen as having a 'moral superiority,' but those who engage in risk-taking—who have skin in the game—understand the true nature of responsibility and accountability in decision-making."
  • "The absence of skin in the game is a fundamental problem in systems and theories that are detached from real-world outcomes, leading to consequences that are not only impractical but often dangerous."

Author : Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Nassim Nicholas Taleb is a former quantitative trader who transitioned into a flâneur and researcher, dedicating his work to exploring philosophical, mathematical, and practical aspects of probability and risk. He is the author of the multivolume essay collection "Incerto," which includes notable works such as "The Black Swan," "Fooled by Randomness," "Antifragile," and "Skin in the Game." Through a blend of personal narrative, parables, and rigorous discussions across various fields, Taleb investigates themes of uncertainty, human error, and decision-making in an unpredictable world. In addition to his trading career, he has published over 50 scholarly papers on topics ranging from statistical physics to economics, all centered around the concepts of risk and probability. Currently, he serves as a Distinguished Professor of Risk Engineering at NYU's Tandon School of Engineering, albeit in a part-time capacity, with a keen interest in systems that thrive amidst disorder, which he terms "antifragile." Taleb is outspoken against the commodification of knowledge through awards and accolades, viewing them as detrimental to the integrity of learning.
