I don't like a world where the only way to assess someone is by how much money they make for investors. That's a bleak reality, so I prefer to act as though a person's behavior matters in the hopes I might create it by force of will. You can recognize the negative with the positive. Anything else is revisionism.



Other countries and economies have chosen not to reward value-creators for the value they create. So far this has not worked out well for these countries and economies.


The money they make for investors is a direct measurement of the value they create.


This is the mindset I spoke against. Did you reply to the wrong comment?
