48 Often-Ignored Pieces of Advice That Are Actually Gold

The older people in our lives are always giving us tons of unsolicited advice. When we’re young, we tend to think we know everything already, but as we get older, we learn that our elders were right, after all. This very thing happened to this poster with the advice they received from their grandfather.

Their grandfather always said to buy cheap tools at first and invest in better quality tools once they wear out or break. When they got their own place as an adult, they realized how right their grandpa was! If you wear a tool out, it means you use it a lot and it’s worth it to spend more money on a better-quality tool that will last longer and work better.
