Steven Levitt on Human Capital

Steven D. Levitt is complaining on his freakonomics blog that his undergrads did poorly in their final exam, as if they didn't care about their future. But, as he understood when watching the video below, they were actually investing in, euh...somewhat different kinds of skills.

That is some super - amazing putting.....something makes me think that these guys have way too much time on their hands though.

I'm sure that Levitt is the kind of freak that could come up with something creative like the 'Freakonomics of Golf Putting' to get his students back into their work?

It looks like Levitt himself is a bit of a golf nut:
