Awesome video Chris. My parents have ingrained in me to think into the future and ahead of time. We have the saying: "Save in time, then you will have it in times of need". They also encouraged me to start saving money for retirement form an early age on. 65 seems far away when you are 20 years old, but it is worth it.
Hi Kay, glad you enjoyed the video and you resonate with its content. When it comes to retirement, life goes by so quickly and when you are in your 20's retirement seems a million miles away, it is surprising how quickly it comes around. Saving for the future is an import part of life 👍lovely to hear from you Kay and thanks for your comments🙂
Sage advice, Chris. I can relate to all of these lessons. I suspect that most of us would do a number of things differently if we could only have our time over again knowing then what we know now. Sadly, we only get one shot at life; there are no dress rehearsals, and experience tends to come with age. On the flipside, it is the blue sky thinking and self belief of individuals in their youth that has given us many of the great technological and cultural achievements we enjoy today…and won battle honours in times of war, often at great sacrifice to themselves. On a lighter note, thanks to my late mother, I know how to use a washing machine, why an ironing board is the shape that it is, and why a thimble is a handy piece of kit when using a needle and thread. She and my dear aunt also taught me how to prepare and cook quality meals from scratch. Doing the washing up afterwards was, and always has been, a given.😊
Hi John, glad you enjoyed the video. Hind sight is a wonderful thing, but learning life lessons at a young age and questioning our mistakes to prevent future mistakes occurring👍🙂 Your mother and aunt tort you well, and may youngsters no longer learn these skills, such a shame👍🙂 thanks for your contribution john and hope to catch up with you soon👍
Good morning Chris. I learned to sew an iron when I was in grade school. My grandmother taught me to sew when I was in Cub Scouts because she didn't want to have to sew on all my patches and buttons. Finances I learned from an early age to save and that stayed with me the rest of my life. Throughout my life I learned to live below my means in order to save. A lot of companies these days offer 401ks and they will match up to a certain point. I would suggest I would suggest to contribute at least to what they will match. Believe me you will be happy that you did when you reach retirement. Great advice Chris. Cheers Ron
Hi Ron, glad you enjoyed the video and your grandmother was a very wise person and saved herself a lot of work in the long run🙂 and you learnt a very valuable life skill and learning about finances and the importance of saving. 👍🙂
I will start out by saying this was a very excellent video, and indeed although I am well past 30 years of age I can still relate and benefit from the many helpful suggestions and recommendations...for example "embracing failure" and "setting standards" are really great personal goals, thanks for sharing!
I really enjoyed this video Chris. Good sensible advice. As a youth I would often reject sensible advice. I guess part of being young is trying things out for oneself. Living by the rules of one's elders kinda defeats the purpose of being young. However, the importance of cultivating a way of behaviour that is both satisfying and rewarding, such as consideration and respect for others gives one a head start. The ability to curb one's youthful traits such as impulsive decisions only comes with making a fool of oneself often enough to eventually learn from one's mistakes.
Hi Billy, glad you enjoyed the video. You are so right, in youth we all rebel a little against our elders, and potentially ignore their advice, only to find out later that it was sound and good, based on their mistakes and experience. Behaviour and respecting others will get a person far in life. Wisdom is gained over time, but listening to other people's experiences and follies can help you gain the wisdom much quicker in life and set you up for success, not only in the interim but also in the latter parts of ones life. Lovely to hear from you and your comments 👍🙂

Hi there, glad you enjoyed it. I'm pleased you can relate to and agree with the content of those life lessons, lovely to hear from you again🙂👍
I made a particular personal mistake today. LOL. It's not going to happen again.
I really enjoyed this video Chris. Good sensible advice.

Union Jack Club?
Hi James, it certainly was 🙂 Home from home🙂👍
@@TheBritishDapper Excellent video, great advice yourself and Mr Ash are top notch.
Thank you James, glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for your support👍
A lesson you need to learn now is not leave your fragrances by a window as they will spoil. Great video otherwise, though.
Hi there, glad you enjoyed the video👍
