nullnull年轻的资本nullnull 每年秋天,哈佛大学著名经济学教授格里高利·曼昆都有一项令其非常愉悦的任务——欢迎大约700名大一新生,并由此想到了一些问题:大学生应该学些什么?理解现代经济,并为之做好准备需要打好哪些根基?且看这位享誉世界的经济学教授向当代大学生提出了哪些忠告。 nullLEARN SOME ECONOMICS
You knew this was coming. Perhaps I am just trying to protect my profession’s market share, but I hope it is more than that.
学点经济学
这个建议,你或许已经猜到了。也许我只是在尝试着保护我这个行当的市场份额而已,但我希望这项建议的意义不止于此。nullLEARN SOME STATISTICS
High school mathematics curriculums spend too much time on traditional topics like Euclidean geometry and trigonometry. For a typical person, these are useful intellectual exercises but have little applicability to daily life. Students would be better served by learning more about probability and statistics. 学点统计学
高中的数学课程设置在欧几里得几何和三角函数等传统主题上花费了太多的时间。对于普通人来说,这些都是非常有用的脑力训练,但它们在日常生活中几乎没有什么适用性。学生们最好多学一些概率和统计方面的知识。nullLEARN SOME FINANCE

的崛起,再加上迫在眉睫的社会保障问题,美国人的金融前景越来越多地掌握在自己的手中。但他们能够胜任这项工作吗?nullLEARN SOME PSYCHOLOGY Economists like me often pretend that people are rational. That is, with mathematical precision, people are assumed to do the best they can to achieve their goals.学点心理学
像我这样的经济学家经常假设每个人都是理性的。也就是说,假设人们能够精确地计算出实现其目标的最佳方式。
nullIGNORE ADVICE AS YOU SEE FIT
Adults of all stripes have advice for the college-bound. Those leaving home and starting their freshman year should listen to it, consider it, reflect on it but ultimately follow their own instincts and passions.适当地忽略成年人的建议
形形色色的成年人对即将跨入大学校门的学子提出了各种建议。离开家,即将开始大学生涯的新生应该聆听,思考,反思这些建议,但最终要跟随自己的直觉和激情。
null未来唯一确定的事情在于,它远远无法确定。我不知道,3年之后,哪些新兴产业将对大学毕业生产生吸引力,任何人都无法确知。下一代人将塑造其自身的经济形态,就如同比尔·盖茨和马克·扎克伯格(MarkZuckerberg)塑造了他们这代人的经济形态一样。现在正忙于收拾行囊,购买课本,大一的新生,未来将掌握在你们的手中。
