And that, is the rub.

Those who are stupid and can't, also mirror those who can, and languish.
Mine isn't a different take than yours.
Mine is the foundation that holds up the roof.
Yours is the roof.
Smart roofs know what holds them up.
There's a view from the roof. It's impossible to expalain the mountains you see in the distance to a brick in the foundation.
There aren't many brick roofs...but a brick doesn't understand this.
A little kaballahesqueness:
All vessels have a capacity.
A thimble sized vessel can be full, realizing it's full potential.
A lake sized vessel can be full, realizing it's full potential.
The thimble can overflow.
The lake can overflow.
A thimble is not a lake.
human minds are vessels.
Punchline:
Our society has decided that my completely uneducated naive view is a match for your expert long studied view.
The stupid needn't stay within their bounds in our society...so they gamble....
I am simply ignorant if I haven't the knowledge of investments and know of my shortcoming . I am simply stupid if I sheeply invest money I can't afford where educated
people cast....
