Mike Lang made me laugh with a quote from his Dad in another post and I started thinking (sometimes I do that) about some stuff my Dad said to me over the years.
Here is a few:
"Don't ever pay for it, there are too many girls giving it away for free"
"It takes year to earn trust & respect, and a second to loose it all"
"Observe your surroundings and the setting. All the information you need is available without a word being spoken"
There are several kinds of folks on the world:
Folks that think in dollar increments. Folks that think in hundred dollar increments. Others think in thousand dollar increments. If you work hard and get some good luck and someday become a person that thinks in thousand dollar increments, don't ever forget that deep down inside you are a dollar increment guy.
Wedding day advice - Son, your a about to enter a long voyage as the captain of an ocean liner. Marriage is like a voyage. Your task is to get the freight and the crew from NYC to London. Some days the ship may veer a bit too far north and some day the ship may veer a few too far south. Don't worry about it for a second. Eventually you will get to London.
Like Mike stated, if we were only smart enough to listen and respect out parents when we were young enough to get into all the trouble.![Big Grin Big Grin](https://rtr-pca.org/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Any ones that stick in your mind?
