Should I spend all points at the “Prepare for the Journey Carefully” stage in Dwarf Fortress?

Question

I'm a brand new player to Dwarf Fortress, and I've been looking at some beginners guides for starting a game. Although the guides tell you which skills it is worth investing in at the outset, they do not say anywhere if I should be spending the maximum amount of points that I can on my Dwarfs (this is after spending points on necessary items).

Should I be maxing out my points expenditure at the start, or do I need to save these for any reason?

Thanks in Advance.

Answer

All points left after embarking are lost, so use them all up.
