Does wisdom require information?

You may recall my old post about data, information, knowledge, and wisdom, and its underlying assumption that these are ordered and one proceeds from another.

James Altucher feels differently.

I never read random articles on the Internet unless they are by people I know. Mostly I read books I love.

A friend asked me, when he heard all of this, “But aren’t you afraid you’re going to miss some information?”

I asked him, “What information?”
