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 My friend Tess' grandad
dropped her off at Auckland airport, handed her a few dollars and uttered the immortal lines

"That's for some lunch, just don't go buying yourself a bottle of fizz and a couple of slices of cheese"

Never mind that there was probably nowhere in a ten mile radius you could just buy a couple of slices of cheese.

I hope to meet this latent comedic genius someday.
