One quick question: what kinds of resources might be out there that have more complete/comprehensive basics to becoming a mad investor? I mean there’s good reasons you can’t just ask “Where are the galaxy-brained secret quant formulas written down?”, and I have a lot of the mental models already, but I don’t think a normal economics textbook (or even much of the existing Sequences) set out anything like “here’s a comprehensive list of the basic mental models to be using in the crossover between rationality and economics”.
A few actions immediately suggest themselves:
A. Crack open one of the few “books/webpages that are just lists of generally-useful mental models” that exist.
B. Add some recommended particular textbook or website to my reading list, and then never get around to reading it.
I’m already loving the story!

C. Wait for adaptation into more Sequences.
D. Continue reading between all of this.
Right now I’m just doing (D) and considering doing (A).
EDIT: The closest thing to a “list of things that Keltham can pull out at anytime”, might be this.
