Couple fun articles for reading this weekend:
- How Whole Foods uses queue management theory to speed up lines and increase revenues
- Tales of a ninth grade fund manager via Paul Kedrosky
- What fish markets teach us about the economy
- Prodigy’s end: How a top-tanked American teen tennis star is now ranked 335
BTW, my favorite quote out of the ninth grade fund manager article:
Brandon, who became interested in markets with a virtual-reality game
called Neopets and was setting up mock stock portfolios by the age of
12, wanted to start his own investment fund.
Are virtual goods teaching kids about economics and markets? :)
