    If indeed it is true that possessing X isn’t as valuable as it is perceived to be by those who don’t possess it, it actually makes perfect sense that it is precisely those who do possess X who would be the ones most likely to learn/know such.

    For example, lots of people fantasize(d) about owning a pool. But pool owners know better than those who don’t that they’re not all they’re cracked up to be, and sometimes arguably more trouble than they’re even worth.
