What Is the SimoleonSense Challenge?

Why Am I Blogging?
I am blogging to challenge the conventional “silo” approach to learning. This approach has been promoted by schools (particularly universities and finance departments) to the detriment of their students. I’m a renaissance thinker, an aspiring polymath, and a diligent researcher – as such I believe in the importance of consilience.
Successful decision making centers on understanding problems and searching for solutions via a broad frame work of mental models. This blog will take an unconventional approach to current affairs, business, finance, and entrepreneurship- I will not provide you with stock tips or silver bullets. I will nudge you to fish from the pond of knowledge and wisdom. I will provide you with unique multidisciplinary content. Your job is to think, critique, and apply each concept (in your daily life).
I dedicate a substantial amount of time to this blog. I hope the posts will challenge your thinking and inspire you to become a better person. I thank you for spending your precious time with us.
- Miguel Barbosa, Founder of SimoleonSense.com “Enriching Ideas for Intelligent Investors”
P.S. I am deeply grateful for my readers who inspire, collaborate, and push me to become a better person!
