Learned a lot about sports as a serious business concern from two articles I picked up this week.
Interesting comparison of the soccer vs. baseball business.
And Mark Cuban of Maverick's fame writes a nice well-thought out piece on a key decision affecting his franchise Steve Nash, Part 1
He also does a nice job with Rules of Success. #1: Sweat Equity is the best equity!
It was great reading, even for someone who's neither into soccer or baseball, nor a Maverick's fan.
About Me
- Ted Hu
- Passionate about political economy and believe that some of the world's most intractable problems can start to be effectively addressed through a deliberate, balanced approach to economic development and growth. Believe tax cuts have been over hyped, considering how little we are doing to incentivize private-sector R&D to drive fundamental innovation and to promote business investments developing new markets. I believe technology + smart policymaking are key enablers that need to be embraced by developed nations in a deliberate fashion to address developing nations' issues related to scarcity that cause a disproportionate degree of suffering, which in turn engender terror and global unrest. More trade agreements that promote a significant number of low-paying but life-sustaining jobs, renewable and affordable energy, cheap and nutritious foods, ubiquitous access to vaccines and birth control for 75% of the world's population that have little or nil. * This blog reflects my own views, not that of my employer whatsoever.
