Wisdom is Prevention

Topic

"Wisdom is prevention" is a philosophical maxim popularized by the legendary investor and Berkshire Hathaway vice chairman Charlie Munger. It emphasizes that avoiding problems, mistakes, and "stupidity" is far easier and more effective than trying to solve or cure them after they occur. This principle of inversion and proactive avoidance serves as a foundational concept in decision-making, risk management, and personal philosophy.
