Matt Smith discusses the smashing book he co-authored with Doug Casey and his son Maxim Smith on how to skip university and become a renaissance man (”The Preparation: How To Become Competent, Confident, and Dangerous”). He touches on the hero’s journey, Greco-Roman virtues, his son’s current path through “the preparation,” how it’s financed and designed (e.g. anchor and academic courses), why the current system has failed, and much more. The book also has utility for homeschooling children as well as for middle-aged and elderly men seeking to better themselves.
