#222 Ed Thorp (My personal blueprint)

Ed Thorpe's memoir reads like a thriller. Mixing wearable computers that would have made James Bond proud, shady characters, great scientists, and poisoning attempts. The book reveals a thorough, rigorous, methodical person in search of life, knowledge, Financial security. And not least of all

Fun. Thorpe is also known to be a generous man. Intellectually speaking. Eager to share his discoveries with random strangers. Yet he is humble.

He might qualify humble trader on planet Earth. So unless the reader can reinterpret what's between the lines, he or she won't notice that Thorpe's contributions are vastly more momentous than he reveals. Why? Because of their simplicity. Their sheer simplicity.
