About Me

Fabian R. Lischka (利飛鵬)
Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Hi. I've studied in Germany, England, Ireland, and California, worked in London and the US. Now working in Hong Kong (equity derivatives). I suffer a low tolerance of bullshit or boredom. I like truth, simplicity, and variety, and the metric system and Apple; and dislike archaic byzantine banking systems based on cheques, 'intelligent design' and postmodernism, among other things. I used to be ex-utilitarian, but now I am ex-libertarian. In my free time I like to sleep, eat, travel, and read The Economist. I like my family. Have a good day!
