The short version is that being arrogant can lead you to not pause and think. Just because you are right about many things doesn't mean you are always right.
Don't be dumb. Don't over extend yourself and get into debt. Stack sats on a regular basis. Don't gamble and try to play the markets. Stay humble. Learn to grow food. Learn to be prepared for the most likely disasters (ie not nuclear holocaust). What are the most likely events that would impact you and your family where you live? Use your brain and seek out resources on preparedness. Teach your kids to be self reliant. Don't raise kids, raise adults.
In the context of your question I would add I try to remember what it was like before I knew about bitcoin. I had dumb questions back then. Being humble helps you help others.
Nice answer @kepford - thanks. I must be great at being a parent too - barely out of diapers and the adult has shone through all these years til the present. Love it.
That 'arrogant' section I found interesting too. Nothing can be further away from wisdom as that...
