Summary

Colin Wright of Exile Lifestyle talks about long-term thinking Episode 2281: Long-Term Thinking by Colin Wright of Exile Lifestyle on Cognitive Bias & Long Term Planning Colin Wright is a professional author and international speaker who co-founded a publishing company and travels full-time, moving to a new country every four months or so--that country determined by the votes of his readers! He also blogs. Colin's a minimalist in that he owns very few things and is careful in how he consumes. He tends to buy less, but invest in quality when he does, and trends toward the same in relationships, business endeavors, and just about everything else. He's left-handed, blue-eyed, scary good at Tetris, and can’t cook.
