Bourdain - what a fascinating guy.
I like the brutal honesty. Painful to read some of it though.
That line at the end - "luck is not a business model" - a classic.
Any examples of startup-success-story-type people acknowledging this, or the general idea of survivorship bias?
- TeMPOraL 8y ago> That line at the end - "luck is not a business model" - a classic. Funny in context of this site, though. While "luck is not a business model" for the one who's to hope to be lucky, other people's luck definitely is a business model. In fact, it's the startup investing business model.
