Have you ever had an opportunity that just seemed too easy to be real? In Episode #195 of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: the absolute apes on Wall St Bets, my brother's recent experience of the infinite money pool, a hilarious study that showed monkeys are better at picking stocks than retail investors, gaining unwarranted confidence from having more and more data, how people of the past used to goal set and make sacrifices, why some parts of evolutionary theory seems a bit dodgy and just how much of what we say in an average day is actually true.
As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!
