He also follows these things up with canned strategies to make your life antifragile, without making any attempt to demonstrate how or why these strategies are actually so.
Example: he does not recommend the standard investment strategy of purchasing stock funds and bond funds at a ratio that approximates your tolerance for risk. This is, for some reason, fragile. He recommends putting most of your money into the safest investments available on the market, with the rest of your money going into the riskiest moonshots you can find. This is, for some reason, antifragile. "Unimportant" questions like why and how these strategies are classified as fragile/antifragile and what kinds of investments he considers appropriately safe are left as an exercise to the reader.
