Technology has brought about and will surely continue to reduce transaction costs when it comes to education and employment. Taylor Pearson, author of a bestselling book The End of Jobs, joins me to talk about risky and antifragile when it comes to jobs and occupation.

His work experience, why he thinks that accounting is the riskiest and entrepreneurship safest job, as well as how to think about yourself as a firm are some of the topics that we covered.

Beyond entrepreneurship, we discussed the ongoing democratization of tools of production and creation of new markets.
