Lectures
These are the lectures I give to our core finance class.These lectures present my alternative view of reality, as informed by finance. The goal of these lectures is to better understand the structure of underlying reality, and by doing so to make you into a better human being. Each lecture is accompanied by the .ppt file used for that day and links to the articles that were discussed in that lecture. Each lecture tried to use current (at that time) articles in the news to make the intended point, with New Zealand examples where possible. If you would like a brief summary of the overall thrust of these lectures, #5 from Summer School 2007 is a good place to start.
Reactions to the lectures are most welcomed.
The "Live-Lectures" below are specifically designed to explain current issues in Finance and are accompanied by recent articles and other material.
