Stupidity is knowing the truth, seeing the truth but still believing the lies. And that is more infectious than any other disease.

You cannot get educated by this self-propagating system in which people study to pass exams, and teach others to pass exams, but nobody knows anything. You learn something by doing it yourself, by asking questions, by thinking, and by experimenting. 🧠

"The task is not to see what has never been seen before, but to think what has never been thought before about what you see every day." -- Erwin Schrödinger (1887 - 1961)

The problem is not people being uneducated. The problem is that people are educated just enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything from what they have been taught. 🧠

Five types of people you want to surround yourself with: the inspired, the passionate, the motivated, the grateful and the open minded.

"What have you done today to lift someone's spirits? To make her laugh? To ease his burden? Ask yourself that each night and it will change the way you see the world. And the way the world sees you." I love this quote. Have a good weekend.

The first 5 books I'd recommend to a money novice: 1. The Wealthy Barber 2. Millionaire Next Door 3. Choose FI 4. Motley Fool Investment Guide 5. Your Money or Your Life

Good advice. Easier to say than implement though. Worth the try.
