The motto of the Royal Society, which is the science academy of the United Kingdom has a useful motto "Nillius in Verba" which is Latin for "take nobody's word for it". Science is not settled but is dynamic and to disprove the conjectures of the present.
This motto is a useful guide for assessing all of the ideas and works that are done in economics and finance. Do not follow the story, follow the numbers. Live in a skeptical world when there is money involved.
