The grass isn't usually greener on the other side, but if you're standing in fire, you'd better move.

Most people spend more time dying than living.   Listen to your body and make an effort to be physically fit or you will be very sorry later.

People will almost always betray you if it suits their interests enough to do so at the time, and the closer you are to them the more likely they are to gaslight you about it.  Close friends and family will often never come clean and swear up and down to their grave.  Have video cameras around all your property.

If you are driving at night on a lonely road or long empty bridge and you see a car stopped and people flagging for help, go around them..speed up, whatever you do, don't stop.  Same goes for debris in the road.  Drive around it.  Turn around if you have to.  Do not get out of your car.  Do not put it in park.

E6000 glue is amazing stuff.  You can saturate a cigarette butt with it and jam into a hole in your tire and it will plug it enough to get home..probably.   Replace with a real plug asap.

For every good investment opportunity there are a hundred criminals trying to take your money.

People mostly only care about money.  Want answers?  Follow the money.  Want friends?  Have lots of money.  Want to be a social outcast?  Be broke.  Tired of people bothering you?  Lose all your money.  Or pretend to.

Modern women are almost universally disloyal.  When we stopped expecting monogamy we made marriage not worth it for men.  A woman can divorce her husband for a younger lover, and still take half or sometimes more of his resources away.  This is injustice, be careful men.

If you have a good thing, hold onto it and never take it for granted.  If you have nothing be ready to snatch at opportunity when it presents itself. 

Removing sugar and alcohol from your diet will greatly improve your mental and physical health.

If you're walking through a bad neighborhood and you hear someone yelling at you or asking you to stop, keep walking and pretend you didn't hear them.

If you find yourself being burned by acid, soap or baking soda or ammonia will neutralize it.  

If you find yourself being burned by lye or bleach or other strong alkalines, vinegar, soda, fruit juice, your saliva, or hot sauce will neutralize it.

Time doesn't heal all wounds nor does everything get better with time.  Most things with enough of it get objectively worse.  Make the most of your youth.  It is over in the blink of an eye and everything afterwards pretty much sucks.  

Don't trust someone who won't look you in the eye.  Unless they are autistic.   

Most snakes aren't dangerous, especially in the West.  In the US for example, all venomous snakes but the coral snake are vipers, which have a very distinct appearance, having a thick, heavy body, two extra holes by their nostrils, and vertical pupils and behavior, being largely ambush predators.  If you don't live in Australia or Asia, that slender round eyed quick moving snake is harmless to you but probably deadly to rodents.
