Nassim Taleb's system for building decisions and careers that gain from volatility
What you'll learn

Classify any system, career or decision as fragile, robust or antifragile — and re-run the map per domain, because the classification does not travel.

Measure fragility instead of forecasting risk, using a property of the thing in front of you rather than a prediction about the future.

Apply the Barbell Strategy to make ruin impossible on one end so the speculative end can be genuinely aggressive.

Detect the Turkey Problem in your own track record, and respond by changing your exposure rather than by forecasting better.

Identify iatrogenics — net harm from someone trying to help — and separate it from intervention that is actually warranted.

Decide when to intervene and when to abstain, using harm that is systemic and fast as the trigger and the smallest unit as the actor.

Apply via negativa: improve health, work and decisions by removing what harms before adding what helps.

Distinguish Mediocristan from Extremistan, and stop applying averaging logic in the domain where one event moves the total.

Build optionality out of asymmetry plus rationality, so you gain without needing to know what happens next.

Spot a fragile system by its nonlinearity — harm that accelerates faster than the shock that caused it.

Evaluate any adviser, institution or recommendation with the skin-in-the-game test: who carries the downside if it is wrong.

State the limit of every concept you use — the dose, the survivability condition, the domain — so you stop applying it where it fails.
Requirements

No prior knowledge of Taleb's work is required. Every concept is defined before it is used.

You do not need to have read Antifragile. This is a concept course, not a companion to the book — it teaches each idea's definition, its mechanism, and the point where it stops applying.

No mathematics beyond arithmetic. Convexity and nonlinearity are taught with a die roll and a curve, not with formulas.

Bring one real situation — a job, a project, a source of income, a health habit — that you would like to test against the framework. Most of the course is more useful with a specific case in hand.
