Thanks for the pointer, his writings look very entertaining.

Being a chilean myself it always catches me off guard when Chile is mentioned (being such a small, distant and insignificant country). Hadn’t heard of Ben Stein before but, after plunging around his past columns, now he is in my mandatory reading list, just like your blog.

Before that I really didn’t give him much attention, but he really made a good impression on me. He is amazingly brilliant — far more than I.

I think the best think I took away from it is just to calm down about the future and weight investment towards the boring side — the sky may be falling and we may all be doomed, but calm heads coupled with thoughtful financial preparation is going to serve the individual than hysterical speculation.

Like you mentioned, he takes what most people see as a complex issue and adds a little common sense that people can relate to which in turn invokes thought.
