- misiti3780 6y agothanks for this -- in antifagile he mentions how he reads 30-60 hours every week. assuming that is true, he must be reading hundreds of books a year.
- antisocial 6y agoHe has all the f u money he needs, no day job, genuine curiosity, there is no need to doubt it. His intellectual curiosity is so refreshing when almost everybody reads books to signal something.
- blaser-waffle 6y agoOther people read books to signal, but Talib has enough cloud to just say shit instead of signaling. Arguably, this is why he has the reputation of being a jerk or putting his foot in his mouth.
