Life is full of strange twists. What I want to relate is not something scientific, but it could pay to be believer.
Over a period of time, I have had a few people saying more or less the same thing to me while they were all at the peak of their success and fortune. Soon after saying the same thing these successful and rich people rolled down hill and were reduced to a fraction in size of their former glorious selves.
What did they all say? Well, they were rich and successful and they shared a common denominator, they were lowly educated. None of them went to college. They attributed their success to this one fact, on top of that they mocked the value of education. They declared, going to college is a waste of time and money.
And then these successful people suddenly were successful no more. They lost their fortunes. They were despatched back to square one like a monopoly player directed back to square one on the authority of a chance card.
How did that happen? I don't know. There is one thing I believe though, it pays to be modest.
If it can be given to you, it can be taken from you.
