Best advice on this topic: How to Age Gracefully | CBC Radio [VIDEO] [Spoiler] "Dear 91-year old, don't listen to other people's advice. Nobody knows what the hell they're doing. Signed, a 93-year old." [Edit] This was originally passed down to me through RSS from: [LINK]
Read original comment ↗The best advise I ever got was this. [VIDEO] Don’t listen to other people’s advice. Nobody knows what the hell they’re doing. Just do your own thing.
Read original comment ↗This reminds me very much of the video How To Age Gracefully [1]. One thing I think is missing is a "From: a x year old" for each bit of advice. I think the advice to someone in their 20's would be quite different coming from someone in their 30's vs 70's, and that in itself could be very interesting. [1] [VIDEO] 4m40s
