I can’t cite the source but I like this quote. Good judgment comes from experience and experience comes from bad judgment.

I wish that I had listened to the experience of my elders when I was your age. Instead I went to the school of hard knocks.

Doing great now as I live on the money I made in the past, not on todays or tomorrows money.

Sometimes your parents will warn you not to touch the stove because it's hot. That's from experience, maybe. But if you have the bad judgement to touch the stove despite the warning; creating that experience is not such a positive thing. . . it's more like you're just experiencing your own STUPIDITY. If wise people warn you not to jump off a cliff, you'd just be an idiot to jump off anyway. But that's why so many people die young. . .
