"لا تسأل أحدًا عن رأيه أو توقعه أو توصيته فقط اسأله عما لديه أو لا لديه في محفظته"
— Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Simplified Meaning:
Instead of asking people what they think will happen or what they suggest you should do, it's better to look at what they actually invest in themselves. People can have lots of ideas and advice, but their true beliefs are shown by where they put their own money. For example, imagine your friend gives you stock tips but hasn’t bought any stocks themselves; this might mean they don't fully trust their own advice. By seeing what someone personally invests in, you get a clearer picture of their real priorities and confidence. If you want to make smarter financial decisions, mimic those who put their own resources into what they recommend. This approach helps you avoid getting misguided by empty opinions and focus on genuine actions.
