💸Reformed Millennials - Post of The Week
Best blog post we read this week: from Morgan Housel - Vicious Traps
There are times in nature when two plus two equals ten – when two little things combine to form one huge thing.
A little cool air from the north is no big deal. A little warm breeze from the south is pleasant. But when they mix together over Missouri you get a tornado.
Two calm water currents are not a problem. But if opposing currents meet, you get a deadly whirlpool.
Bleach and ammonia are common household products. Mix them together and you get lethal chloramine gas.
In each case it’s easy to underestimate risk – or at least be surprised at what happens – because the initial ingredients seem harmless. The idea that two innocent small things can combine to form one big dangerous thing isn’t intuitive.
This same thing happens with personality traits.
…
The right balance is knowing what you’re good at and not being afraid to say it while being just as eager to share what you’re not great at.

* "The price of copper has widened to the biggest discount against its futures equivalent in almost two decades, in a warning sign of a sudden weakening in global demand as China’s economic rebound stalls. Copper for settlement in two days was $66 cheaper on Monday than buying a contract to deliver the metal in three months’ time, a difference that traders said reflected concerns that China’s industrial rebound was not materializing. The gap between the two prices is the largest since 2006, according to the London Metal Exchange." - Source: FT
