Heard a talking head on CNBC moan about the current economic status, and how everyone else overpriced their houses and businesses. I am always amazed how lucky I am to always be around the best and the brightest, the exceptions to the rules.
For example, my alter ego spends alot of time around doctors. Now studies will show that 60% of the doctors don't follow guidelines; yet in a room of twenty doctors, everyone does. Boy am I lucky. Unfortunately, the 100k people who DIE each year from gross medical negligence are not as lucky. And forget about the hundreds of thousands who are undertreated but survive in spite of their doctors. For example, how many patients are on an aspirin a day, and on Lipitor 80mg versus 10-20mg?
My point: make sure whatever endeavor you find yourself in, that you surround yourself with the folks who are the exceptions, or learn how to read statistics...
