Chuks Udo Okonta

It takes wisdom to identify imminent risk and provide means to mitigate it.

The holy book in Proverbs 22:3 says: “A prudent man foresees the evil, and hides himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.”

From the above quote, the wise foresees evil (risk) and hides his or herself under insurance cover.
