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.

Advice and other imaginative titles
Best advice I've ever heard is the following peach which came from me mam*: "Don't listen to advice"

Oh, and she also correctly pointed out that the key to success at work is just to keep turning up.

She's not all sweetness and light mind you, as when left unsupervised she occasionally buys the Daily Mail. She claims it's just her age. I reckon it's because she's a Nazi.

(* Don't judge me regards "me mam". I'm from Teesside and our vowels come out of the side of the mouth. That's just how it's pronounced)
