Confronting the possibility of the worst case scenario with Sam Krishna

Financial trader Sam Krishna dares us to face the unpopular conversation of tail risk, the highly improbable, devastating events we like to think will never happen, but do all the time. What can we do to mitigate our own potential negative tail risk? And forensically investigate how to cause the miraculous, positive outcomes possible at the right side of the bell curve.
