0d1nski on 27.09.2024 6:11 PM Better to be “small” (in a sense of the working man) with no debt, then to be big with someone else’s money. The text around says: “Uerige (the name of the brewery) anecdote”, at the top and “the delicious drop since 1862” at the bottom
Hmrandomname on 27.09.2024 6:12 PM would read it as ” Besser klein und ohne Schulden als groß mit fremden Gulden” its better to be small and without debt as to be big with others coin.
