I stopped for new tires today. While waiting for the tires, an older gentleman came in, bought some tires, and sat down next to me and started a conversation. Somewhat surreal - it was like someone was trying to send me a message.
He was 95, an avid bicyclist, and talked about his life and travels. From our talk, I got the following advice:
Get a good education
Travel when you're younger
Move to an area with nice weather and services close by when you retire.
Downsize when you retire
Get plenty of exercise
Drink plenty of water
That was plenty much it. It was great having a talk with someone a generation older and capable of giving much needed advice.
Anyone still getting advice from the older generation?
