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 Screwing..
"Always use some vaseline when screwing"

This prize piece of information was given to me by my dad, whilst putting up a new gate using some particularly hard wood that was resistant to screws.

I was about 8 or 9 at the time, and it seemed a perfectly obvious thing to use if the wood really was that hard to screw into.

It wasn't until many years later that I randomly remembered the advice and found the greater value in the dual meaning.
