Q

ingratitude

Ingratitude is the most potent information about someone’s future.
I’ve never see an ingrate who did’nt end up a bitter loser. By a built-in myopia; the focus is:
+ local never global
+ static never dynamic
+ transactional never relational
+ efficient never robust

It’s a mental defect.
Taleb
