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 ATM
The very first time I used a cash machine, it asked whether I would like an advice slip with my crisp new fiver. Of course I said yes, hoping for a cryptic fortune-cookie-esque riddle but expecting just to be told to keep my PIN a secret.

Imagine my disappointment when it turned out just to be receipt.

I saw a sign advertising lapdancing once. Imagine my disappointment when it turned out to be a bloke in a big fur coat with a husky.
