We're taught not to judge a book by its cover. Peter Yong thinks that's terrible advice. In this talk, Peter unpacks why we don't need someone's whole story to know whether to trust them, just their first few honest pages. Drawing from his own experience hiring a self-declared thief, he makes the case that the "cover" isn't the problem. We are, because we've stopped paying attention to what people are already showing us. A talk about trust, judgment, and the courage it takes to believe someone the first time they tell you the truth. Malaysia’s leading personal finance storyteller, Peter shares life lessons and practical tips from his extensive interviews, empowering audiences to make smarter choices and thrive. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
