It's okay to even study them and think them through.
I think that the real...
the real mistake, the fatal mistake to avoid is panicking.
And panicking means rushing into a cure for a hypothetical disease before you really understand the nature of the threat and the proximity of the threat.
Because, and Nicholas Taleb makes this point a lot, you know, it's like
The side effects on a vaccine, you know, it's like, oh, the vaccine creates awful side effects to 1% of the people that take it.
The likelihood you'll get the disease is 0.01%.
You know, it's like if you rush into every cure and every treatment, you over-vaccinate.
And Robert F. Kennedy made this point very articulately not so long ago.
I think that with insurance, it's the same thing.
It's like, you know, I want to sell you insurance against slip and fall on a sidewalk.
It'll cost you 1% of all your wealth.
It's only 0.01% likely to happen.
But, you know, I'm going to if I can sell you 100 micro insurance policies, then I take 100% of your money and I insure you against 1% of the risk.
And so the real issue here is how should one react to a hypothetical threat?
When and how much expense should you incur?
Because, yeah, hypothetically, there might be a quantum computer and hypothetically, it might be a risk.
And if so, you might need to do something.
And then the question is, what is the something and how fast should you do it?
And if you rush the cure now, you know, you guys know the word iatrogenic?
