So in that sense, business to me is bottom of the barrel.

There's no actual skill called business.

It's too generic of a thing.

It's like a skill called relating to humans.

That's not a skill. It's too broad.

So a lot of it goes on business schools,

and there's some very intelligent stuff taught in business schools.

I don't mean to distract them completely,

but some of the stuff that's taught in business school

is essentially just anecdotes.

They call it case studies, but it's just anecdotes.

And they're trying to help you pattern match

by throwing lots of data points at you,

but the reality is you'll never understand them fully

until you're actually in that position yourself.

Even then, you will find that basic concepts

from game theory and psychology and ethics and mathematics

and computers and logic will serve you much, much better.

So I would focus on the foundations.

I would focus on the science, Ben.

I would develop a love for reading,

including by reading so-called junk food
