Three lessons this 70 year old failed to learn early

Lesson one: Do what you can wile you can. Lesson Two: Wherever possible avoid being the one who states the obvious. Lesson Three: Do not give too much away for free. Lesson Four: Avoid getting caught throwing out leftover food at any cost, and you too could get to be seventy. (I learned this lesson early and this could be why I can still see both my feet). Lesson Five: Any more than four and others will choose to ignore all that came before.
