Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of experiencing the act of borrowing money in order to truly understand its value. It suggests that by being in a position where one has to borrow money, they can gain a newfound appreciation for its significance and realize the responsibilities associated with repayments. Simply observing or talking about the value of money may not be as impactful as personally going through the process of borrowing, leading one to grasp its worth and purpose more thoroughly.
