    Thank you Sam Khandelwal 😀 Ownership in the company which represents a significant part of the manager in question's total wealth is a great incentive for doing well 👍 Information about the number of shares that the top management own can usually be found in annual reports from the company, but I guess it varies from one country to another. Co-founding is of course a great indicator too - large ownership or not. Emotional incentives rather than economical ones.

    I really enjoy your content and the work you put in Swedish Investor! I was surprised though by your comment about vegan/plantbased food having "fictional health benefits" when all research and science points to it having exactly that (people having more normal BMI, having less lifestyle diseases like diabetes, heart problems, cancer etc). So there is no doubt it is more healthy. A lot of elite athletes perform better on vegan diets and recover faster after workouts. Just my 2 cents. Keep up the good work :)

    The minority has 😊 it just shows how some people may have greater incentives than others. For example the person who is allergic to peanuts. If there are no peanuts on the plane, he'll get a reward - he'll get to travel to the place he wanted. However, if there are peanuts on the plane, he'll be penalized - he won't be able to board the plane at all. The "majority" do not have skin in the peanut game because they don't have this downside.

    I tried the book but found it insufferably rambling, with lots of petty score-settling with other authors and academics (apparently that's the Marmite like charm of Taleb). I seem to remember something about Lindy and still not having a real clue what that means (survivorship being an indicator of continued survival...? Profound!) ~ 15:30 Management stock options nominally give the executives skin in the game - but are often gamed so much that they become asymmetric (Rubin trades), ending up little more than guaranteed bonuses with no call back if TSHTF later. Investors who are meant to guard against such management excesses rarely do, which seems to be a major flaw in shareholder capitalism.
