Or hiring practices that can remain irrational longer than you can stay solvent?

The way to benefit from irrational hiring practices is by starting your own company that's less irrational, and thus can scoop up good workers for relatively cheap (while still paying them more than they get in the rest of the market.)

Worked for Alan Greenspan and his consulting firm Townsend-Greenspan.

If you run your own company like that, then the longer the market stays irrational the bigger your gain.
