Morgan Housel in this episode proves that how we behave is more important than what we know.
You buy the house, the car, and the clothes thinking you’ll get respect, but the truth is nobody is thinking about you as much as you are. People don’t admire the owner, they only use the object to imagine themselves in it. Stop spending your future to buy respect that isn't for sale.
