This is a question Advice from Old People

Sometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.

Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.

Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

This is a QotW answer Old wisdom...
My grandad once told my dad not to drink from a can of pop, "because the metal will rust inside."

30 decades later, and we're still drinking from cans of pop with no ill-effects.

Edit: regarding the QOTW description, who are smooth-skinned youngsters? Most youngsters have spots, no?
