Knowledge is Power or Ignorance is Bliss

[RobArb]

I general, in the arb industry as a whole or even indeed in life, is the saying knowledge is power more prevalent, or should it be a case of ignorance is bliss?

 

Is a case of knowing too much a bad thing or should we all try to learn and understand more?

 

Ii know its not as simple as to choose between the two but if it where me i'd go for knowledge over ignorance!

its a good question, some here seem to prefer the easy simple life, and who can blame them, this business is a minefield when you get "involved"

If knowledge IS power, then i reckon i must be completely powerless...

with power comes greed, due to lack of knowledge!
