He also said always buy the most expensive car you can afford which I'm only just realising is golden advice.

I've always thought that most people spend too much money on cars relative to how much money they have.

In this context he wasn't really talking in terms of flash cars , he was talking about first cars, family cars etc and in the context of not buying an old banger that will cost you thousands in repairs

Two bits of awesome fatherly advice from the biggest positive influence in my life:

1. ( As he was dropping me off at university for my first day). 'Drink as much beer as you want, sleep with as many girls as you want, but of you touch any drugs I'll chop your balls off.'

2. (When we ran a business together before I became a teacher) 'Don't ask any of the staff to do anything they haven't seen you doing yourself.'

I'm very lucky - he is a great man and a great father.

Great idea.

couple my dad told me:

1 - Don't join the military.
2 - Everyone will make mistakes, learn from the ones you make and move on. 

Main one I plan to pass on:

Your first aim in life should be to do what makes you happy.

Aside from everything Honeybadger has ever said to me, which I assume is just a given, there was a time where I'd just lost absolutely loads and was sitting and absorbing what was then my biggest every losing day, and Sean came over and told me to take comfort in the fact that I will definitely have worse.

Not sure it has ever really been put in words but mine is definitely along these lines.

My Dad had to give me a pretty stern telling that Football wasn't life or death like I was treating it to be, solid advice.
