Algorithms and apps analyze data and tell you how to beat the traffic, what books to buy, what music to listen to, and even who to date—often with great results. But what do you do when you face the big decisions of life—the "wild problems" of who to marry, whether to have children, where to move, how to forge a life well-lived—that can’t be solved by measurement or calculation? In Wild Problems, beloved host of EconTalk Russ Roberts offers puzzled rationalists a way to address these wild problems.

On Sam Harris’s podcast, the author says he has a method on how to solve “wild problems”. After listening to the book, my best summary of his advice is “just make a decision” because there is no way to understand all the possible variables. I didn’t learn anything new.
The author also says that decisions like where to go on vacations are “tame problems” and are relatively easy to figure out the best option. I disagree. I think these small decisions can be just as complex.. it’s just not as important because the consequences are a lot smaller.
I genuinely got this book hoping to learn something new about how to make better decisions but sadly, I did not.
