Advice: Two More Thoughts
Some of the best advice you’ll ever receive doesn’t come from textbooks—it comes from lived experience. In this playful but honest reflection, I revisit two simple yet powerful life lessons: one about how to be a thoughtful neighbour (always return more than you borrow), and the other—passed down from my father—about how to avoid the worst of a hangover: “Always drink two glasses of water before bed if you’ve been out drinking.”
While it might seem flippant, it’s rooted in care and experience—and sometimes, that’s the best kind of advice. The post also features input from fellow personal finance writers like Preet Banerjee, who adds that electrolytes are just as important as water. Whether the advice is about hydration or how to handle your money, the takeaway is clear: wisdom is often hidden in the simplest ideas—if you’re willing to listen.
