    Do masters? You saved enough? How difficult would it be to work your way back up to the level you are on if you leave now?

    What's been wrong mate? It's easy to say this from where I'm sat, but you have so much going for you. It's not good that even someone like you has had to struggle  Cry



    Yeah I've saved enough, and I honestly don't care about going back to "work" , I detest the 9-5 culture. I want to get into property developing as it's been an interest of mine for quite some time.

    I also face the issue of not having one specific interest, I have a love for several fields and I'm not sure if a masters would be enough to quench my thirst in that respect.

    And in terms of what has been wrong, a lot of stuff man, I might post about it later but I'm currently pretending to forget about everything and it's working well.


    My mind runs, I can never catch it even if I get a head start.

    If you want to read it let me know & I'll send you a free copy.

    Ok dude, you sound like you know yourself better than I could ever possibly judge or guide you from here. I know you will make the right choice for yourself and kick ass, so I guess I'm going to let you do that.

    Can't talk now, have a spy in my room that I happen to be married to, but will get back to you about your kind offer.

    There seems to be some Sraffa/Keynes circle jerk going on in the review section for that book.
    Whilst both economists are undoubtedly influential, in the context of moving away from the inaptly named Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (the popular model of economic equilibrium), I would suggest that Marx is more insightful than Keynes & Sraffa.

    Where is this book that you fucking promised me?

    Seriously, man, it sounds brilliant. It combines two of my three favourite subjects: Economics and History. Plus it seems to do it in such a way that you don't feel like you're learning something for uni.

    Seriously dude, I want this book. Trade you my wife for it?

    I still want it, it sounds really good mate.

    It sounds really expensive though, so I'll have to send you a gift in return. But I want to make it clear from the onset, that the exchange of gifts will not, in any way whatsoever, signify that we are in a relationship.

    Funny you should say that. My face looks awkward in those shots. It looks like I'm being tortured, and that during this torture, I've suddenly remembered that I was supposed to buy some milk from a trip I've just completed to the supermarket. It's a horrendous look. I pity the women that have been subjected to it.

    I've been looking at Keen's lecture 3A (or B) in the non-equilibrium series, this is where the mathematics begins & I've managed to learn a fair bit about non-linear dynamics so far.

    He manages to show why the mainstream usage of the characteristic equation as opposed to matrix equations fails.

    zeeeeee....... what non-equilibrium series? non-equilibrium dynamics??

     I believe "Life itself originated from such complex non-equilibrium dynamics of biological world..

    Hi Yeez, the basic mainstream model of Economics historically shares a similar analytical structure to the Physics of old.
    So it's plagued with models of equilibria, with the economy jumping from one equilibrium to another (in a sort of newtonian fashion).

    You will actually come across steady state models in Economics etc... you can search for the "Solow-Swan model" on Wikipedia & you'll see what I mean.

    However, Economists such as Steve Keen are destroying this assumption by showing that complex, adaptive systems which aren't characterised by equilibria should be our starting point. After all, what is Economics if it isn't a study of human behaviour?

    Here's is Keen's lecture series:

    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLqs7-zw9kiAKld49M_6xpPYL4TK_1XRzp


    Historically, many Economists have challenged this mainstream assumption but many have voices have been ignored due to politics.

    For instance, Minsky argued that the economy is complex and time dependent. Society is evolutionary and changes in response to endogenous factors, it isn’t an equilibrium seeking and sustaining machine.
