Trying to be smart is another positive way that leads anyone who tries to be too smart to make mistakes. For example, when someone is introduced to bitcoin, the first thing and best to me is to ask as many questions as you can, to learn more about bitcoin or what types of coins you can invest in. I have a friend who was introduced to bitcoin without asking me or anyone about it, and he ended up being scammed and the money he used was borrowed from his cooperative contributions.
