Financial Markets
Yale
This is a wonderful course taught by Professor Robert Shiller, who was awarded the 2013 Nobel Prize for Economics. This is an entry-level course, but very informative. It deserves your attention and time, even you are not a finance professional. Besides the lectures recorded in auditorium, there are also lots of videos filmed in salon, where Prof. Shiller answers questions from students.
I actually completed this course at a very slow pace (about 2 years), I didn’t want to make a haste, because every piece of video is full of wisdom. I often paused the video and had some deep reflection.
At the very end of the course, I was so moved by the touching words:
The world changes and most people don’t really anticipate the changes.
Another really important thing for young people to do is to maintain human capital. That is, keep thinking about what skills you have will be important and needed by others under maybe different conditions.
You have to think about your human capital, your positioning in history, thinking about how I fit in to historical events right now, rather than thinking about where I am in my own personal life cycle.
And finally, maintain humanity in a unforgiving business world.
I hope you find purpose in life and in finance.
