Lawrence EvansGUEST
The question that I was keen and I'm still fascinated by is where on that continuum would an investment team or an individual investor sit? And how would I find out? And that was something I wrestled with for a long time.

Lawrence EvansGUEST
And I was getting nowhere until I asked help from my former physics professors.

Lawrence EvansGUEST
And they said, look, whilst we don't understand investing, we'll give it some thought.

Lawrence EvansGUEST
And they came back sometime later with a very interesting statement, which said, if you can deliberately lose at any given activity, it is by definition majority skill.

Lawrence EvansGUEST
And, of course, could Rafael Nadal have deliberately lost a French Open final? Of course.

Justin ThomsonHOST
It's just how you understand your own attitude for risk and how you show up to be the best with your own risk persona.

Lawrence EvansGUEST
There are, there is objective risk, which is, you know, we get on a plane and we know the objective risk of that plane getting into trouble.

Lawrence EvansGUEST
Uh, and the markets understand objective risk by the term volatility, which is fine.
