Valuable Advice About Free Advice
I learned a lot about life working in my dad’s junkyard. It was a place that always had unusual and interesting characters hanging around (like myself). Some of these characters were junkyard philosophers and some of them gave me some profundity that I think about a lot. One piece of junkyard philosophy came from a street hustler who did some time for armed robbery. He was a very observant fellow who got his education at the school of hard knocks. He offered this about things being “free.” He would say, “ ‘FREE’?? There ain’t nothing ‘free,’” meaning that there was always a price or catch. And in the case of “free advice” the price is the potential consequences from listening to advice from people that do not have a personal interest in solving your problem. When things go South for you from listening to them, they are going to quote Brother Bluto in Animal House – “You fucked up. You trusted us.”
