Javier Milei recounted a joke that, according to him, a growth professor had told in class. In the story, three economists bought three train tickets, while three physicists bought one and hid together in a bathroom when the conductor arrived. The next day, the economists tried to imitate the strategy, but the physicists took their ticket and hid in another bathroom, so the economists ended up getting caught. Milei argued that using tools from mathematics, physics, or statistics did not make their users, including economists, experts. He added that using them without the necessary knowledge could backfire on the user and make them look like a complete fool. #Economía #Matemáticas #Estadística (translated)
