Lanata sobre Schoklender

El consuelo seria que tarde y parcialmente, pero algo se investiga. No se si es suficiente. Cuatro años mas de esto?

Investing in Futures
Me hizo traer a la memoria un proyecto que aun tengo, muy similar, aunque de un alcance y trascendencia diferente pero, tal como este, extraordinario,
Here’s the deal that Lumni struck with him: In exchange for $8,530 in financing, Sneider agreed to repay 14 percent of his salary for 118 months after he graduated. At that point, regardless of how much he has paid, his obligation terminates. Although this might sound similar to a loan, an “income contingent” repayment plan like this is far less risky for a low-income student like Sneider. If he has trouble finding a job or switches careers and earns a lower salary than expected — very distinct possibilities — his payments will drop automatically. The terms are, in fact, determined based on his expected earnings. If he ends up earning the average salary for nurses in Colombia, he will end up paying the equivalent of an interest rate of 17 percent, which is the average rate in the country for a student loan. And if he ends up doing better, he will pay more, and Lumni will share in his success.
Aca el articulo.

Lionel Messi: Boy Genius
Cinco paginas del NYTimes y rankeada 8 entre las mas recomendadas en un pais donde, en gral, se desconoce a la Champions League y donde al football le llaman soccer. Pero justamente este parrafo describe por que es futbol y no soccer,
The debate will never end. That is the beauty of soccer. It demands argument, abhors understatement. Goals are too few and too precious for restrained scrutiny. Entire nations swell and deflate at the sight of ball going into a net. But the next World Cup is not for three years. What to do until then?Ya estamos palpitando el sabado que viene.
