Nassim Taleb on "The Black Swan" (Video 2/4/08), Roubini & Taleb Discuss Crisis on CNBC (2/9/09)

The man, the myth, Nassim Taleb talks about his book "The Black Swan" on 2/4/08. It's an event that is difficult to predict based on historical information. Check out his webpage Fooled By Randomness. At the bottom watch Roubini and Taleb discuss the crisis on CNBC on 2/9/09. As a special bonus I added a video of Roubini on PBS. Roubini makes a good point about nationalization and how IndyMac was scooped up by the private sector once restructured by the FDIC.
