Words of wisdom

"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing." - Socrates

This proverb highlights how small, uncontrolled spending can add up and negatively impact your finances in the long run. 

Essentially, Socrates is suggesting that:

• True wisdom begins with humility: Those who believe they know everything are often the least knowledgeable.
• The pursuit of knowledge is endless: There's always more to learn, and new information can challenge our existing beliefs.
• Open-mindedness is crucial: By acknowledging our limitations, we become receptive to new ideas and perspectives.
