African Proverb

" Knowledge is better than riches"

What does that African Proverb mean to you? How can it be used in your everyday life? Give an example.

What the African Proverb " Knowledge is better than riches" means to me is it's more important to have an education than it is to have a lot of money with a expensive house and unintelligent. This can be used in my everyday life by me staying in school and not having to worry about ever being broke because I can get a good paying job. For instance I want to be an Obstetrician which pays a good amount of money, but in order for me to even get that far I have to finish High School and College. Surprisingly a lot of my family who are around my age are going to be working in the same field of work so I'll be close to them.
