In Time Magazine!

August 30, 2016

The amazing and talented Rana Foroohar, whom I spoke with on Slate Money not so long ago about her fascinating book, Makers and Takers: the Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business, has written a fantastic piece about my upcoming book for Time Magazine.

The link is here. Take a look, it’s a great piece.

Also, I was profiled as a math nerd last week by a Bloomberg journalist.

    Congratulations!

    Something I thought you may find interesting is the evolving story on Greek statistics. The idea is that the greek chief of statistics (an ex IMF employee) mispresented the data in 2009 to show an exagerated deficit, which triggered the crisis and the IMF/EU/ECB stepping in. He is now in jail under criminal charges.

    I enjoy your blog, and I will certainly get your book (not because of Times)
