Well, I have been silent for 2 months, as nov-dec are my teaching time … life back to seminormal now.

We spent christmas in Bahamas and stayed at Atlantis, and it is amazing to see the kind of wealth being shown in that place. We took a taxi to see the place where the local people live (called over the hill area), the contrast is beyond description.

One thing that gets me to think is that many of us adopts a profession, and then try to be the best in that profession, oblivion of what other people are doing in other professions. But if we keep our eyes open, we can probably play the kind of intellectual arbitrage that will allow us to achieve much bigger success. for example, imaging a business school professor from Wharton or Harvard as a high end real estate agent? I think it is important that we do not get fixed on what we are doing now, and we should be ready to take on opportunities wherever and whenever they materialize.
