Zurich Axioms

Max Gunther wrote "The Zurich Axioms" (published by Harriman House copyright 2004). His book is in 12 chapters. I thought that I would put up his 12 axioms in 12 posts (maximum utility) and some may be moved to discuss.

To provide a road map, I'll give an overview of the Chapters.

1. On Risk
2. On Greed
3. On Hope
4. On Forecasts
5. On Patterns
6. On Mobility
7. On Intuition
8. On Religion and the Occult
9. On Optimism and Pessimism
10. On Consensus
11. On Stubborness
12. On Planning
