1
When you see young people, what do you think they're doing wrong?
2
I know they'll probably never own a home and I don't know about getting a job.
3
It's a harder time.
4
I worry about them.
5
I was worried about money.
6
Money, money, money, money.
7
That was a big problem.
8
Was it worth worrying about in the end?
9
Yeah, because I now have this lifestyle which I couldn't afford otherwise.
10
My father tried to control my life as much as he could.
11
I thought he was a better judge than me of what I was capable of.
12
Was he right?
13
No, of course he wasn't right.
14
Sympathy to me is a crutch.
15
People that want sympathy, uh -uh, you fight.
16
Some people, no matter what you tell them or what you say, it's not going to help.
17
So there's no point.
18
Trust your gut.
19
Anything that doesn't feel right isn't right.
20
In this video, I'll be asking strangers in their 70s,
21
80s, and 90s, some of the oldest and wisest people on the planet what advice they would give to their younger selves.
22
How old are you?
23
I'm 84.
24
I'm proud of it.
25
Why do you say proud of it?
26
Because some people don't live to the age of 84.
27
So I'm thrilled.
28
I don't hide my age.
29
Of course, a lot of women, if you ask them how old they are, they're not your friend anymore.
30
Right.
31
Where do you think people go wrong in the process of getting older.
32
I think your mindset seems very different than some of the people we've spoken to.
33
They just become very depressed.
34
They don't like getting older and they want sympathy.
35
And sympathy for what?
36
They're not in the hospital.
37
They're not alone.
38
Some people, no matter what you tell them or what you say, it's not going to help.
39
So there's no point.
40
Yeah.
41
What does it feel like to be 91?
42
I'm not as good as being 60 or 70.
43
I'll tell you.
44
I'm sorry that I didn't do as much as I could have when I was younger and able to.
45
I relied too much on my father being of the old school, sort of tried to control my life as much as he could.
46
It was a start really when I started working.
47
I ended up working for someone that he presented me to.
48
He did not like some of my choices, my life choices.
49
buying a house
50
or buying a car i ended up going against his wishes he thought i couldn't afford either
51
so yeah was he right no of course he wasn't right
52
but at the time he thought he was right yeah
53
and i was too i guess enthralled with him
54
that i thought uh he was a better judge than me of what I was capable of.
55
I regret a lot, but I'm thankful I'm at this stage in my life.
56
What do you think makes a good father, in your opinion?
57
Showing love, showing support, and being there for them when and if they ever need you for anything.
58
So you're 71.
59
What is something
60
that you think you spent a lot of time worrying about over the course of your life
61
that might not have been worth all the worrying? worrying about having a clean home spending time with family
62
and friends would have been a lot more important than spending
63
time doing housework you really care about what somebody thinks about you
64
if you are you dressed like this or you're dressed like
65
that does it does it matter no it doesn't matter the
66
only time i cared about what others thought about me was
67
when i was teaching and 27
68
and not married you're worried about like what will people think of me
69
that bothered me yeah and i wanted to have children
70
but it worked out that i got married
71
when i was 27 oh you met the same year yeah okay
72
and your husband is still around no my husband passed away
73
many years after i remarried second one still with us or the second one is still with us but not with me
74
trust your gut anything
75
that doesn't feel right isn't right i didn't really trust my gut on my first marriage
76
but he passed yeah so you caught a break i guess well sorry yeah i divorced him Okay, before.
77
Okay.
78
I have two children from my first husband.
79
That was my gift.
80
Yeah.
81
How long were you together before he passed?
82
I think we were together 50 -odd years.
83
Wow. And happy?
84
No. Not exactly happy.
85
I made myself happy.
86
I did my things.
87
Why did you not leave?
88
Was it not a thing in your age? sure it wasn't wasn't the thing to do
89
but uh yeah i would have done it that way
90
and you're married right now divorced how long were you married for 47 years really oh my god
91
so you just got divorced recently yeah and i wish i'd left many years ago
92
what kept you the children yeah yeah my boys but you know
93
if i look back on it i mean they were adult men by the time yeah you know
94
if i'd left 10 years ago i think i would have
95
had 10 years more of being myself many years ago my son once spent some time with some friends
96
and all the friends that he was with had divorced parents
97
and he said you know mom if you
98
and dad ever get divorced i don't think i'll ever talk to you again
99
and then had a huge impact on me yeah you never forgot
100
that i never forgot that and then i stuck it out until the time
101
that boys both had left home they both had their own lives
102
and i thought they're old enough to handle it now and
103
that was it you think if you didn't say
104
that things would have been different i i think i probably would have had more courage to leave before
105
that yes being in a marriage
106
that was a very miserable marriage I wasn't living for myself
107
whereas now I'm alone I'm enjoying life nobody to to worry
108
about just myself it's great know each other very well before
109
you sign those papers you were with your husband for basically
110
50 years almost more than 50 people you're how old
111
when you got married
112
when i got married uh was some oh my god bad
113
land 63 okay 1963 oh my god almost 60 years yeah what do you attribute to almost 60 years together
114
and very very happy doing a lot of things together exercise the bicycle walking walking a lot
115
and this helps us to be together du plaisir
116
when you are happy
117
when you're happy rather to tell you the truth since my husband passed away uh 2020
118
so it's six years
119
when he he was sick i had no time to go to the gym
120
or to hear or to walk or and
121
when he passed away yeah now i am a bit better let's say
122
and uh i try to walk i have this journal
123
that we created it's called the advice collector
124
and the whole point of the journal is just to be able to like approach strangers
125
and then ask them for a piece of advice So I just collect advice from people that I meet.
126
Okay.
127
And I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind writing a piece of advice for me.
128
Okay.
129
Be confident in yourself and be considerate of others less fortunate.
130
I didn't have the confidence, but I was considerate of others.
131
Remember to trust your gut.
132
If it doesn't feel right, don't do it.
133
Enjoy life.
134
Don't sweat the small stuff.
135
Take all the chances and opportunities that come your way.
136
Don't be afraid of life.
137
You should travel all over the world and know other people before you marry and settle down.
138
Enjoy life as much as you can.
139
You have to open your horizons.
140
Like yourself, love your family, and be thankful for every day and for the special people in it.
141
We have traveled all over the world and spoken to more than 10 ,000 people.
142
What we have discovered is that talking to strangers is an art that everyone wants to be better at, but nobody seems to know how to do we created this advice collector journal
143
that we have released on our website that helps you do exactly
144
that the advice collector is simple walk up to a stranger
145
ask them to leave a piece of meaningful advice for you
146
and then start a conversation
147
that might change your life we have released a very limited
148
batch of these you can grab one right now to learn
149
how to better talk to strangers by clicking the link in our description or scanning the qr code on screen.
150
All right, back to the video.
151
My husband passed away at 43.
152
I became a widow at 37.
153
You just have to play the hand you're dealt.
154
It's horrible to see someone you love have cancer.
155
And then when I was diagnosed, I fought hard.
156
I thought my children are not going to lose both their parents to cancer.
157
You have to have a positive attitude.
158
Be thankful for what you have i just had a positive tough attitude you have to
159
because sympathy to me is a crutch people
160
that want sympathy uh -uh you fight yeah
161
and you're cancer -free thank god thank god
162
and i've met a very nice gentleman here and that makes life interesting too and the people here are very nice
163
yeah a nice gentleman like uh a nice companion yeah we do things together
164
and that's that's nice I was married when I was 21.
165
My wife passed away about 14 years ago, so we've been married for a long time, but the last few years were not good years
166
because she developed Alzheimer's and the last couple of years were not good years for me.
167
What kept you guys together for so long?
168
The family.
169
Maintaining our family.
170
But you loved each other.
171
Oh, yeah.
172
It's a happy marriage.
173
Definitely, yeah.
174
After over 50 years of being with one person, what is your definition of love?
175
I'm curious.
176
Love is having support, real affection for each other, and not being afraid to show it.
177
But you have a companion right now, right?
178
Because it's who we just spoke to.
179
Probably.
180
She considers herself a very close companion and she doesn't stop in disclosing how much she adores me.
181
And I don't take it that well because at this age, you have to know what your limits are and, you know, I don't know.
182
I like being close.
183
I don't like being reminded always, constantly, about how much this person thinks of you.
184
It's almost as if she worships me and that i'm not
185
that good of a person you know so she needs to relax
186
so you're saying yeah she's well she knows
187
that i can look as long as i don't you know
188
continue ever you don't order you can look at the menu
189
but you're not going to order that's right exactly that's still
190
just smart men that's you know you have 90 years of experience thank you yeah
191
if you could go back in time to talk to your
192
25 year old self knowing what you know today at 84
193
what would you say to her just do what's good for you don't worry what anyone else does
194
but she's not going to listen anyway she's not going to
195
do anything this is life i wouldn't want to go back you learn
196
if you're teachable and we hope to and it's the attitude
197
that we have of being with the right people i would
198
say don't worry about getting married that's not the most important thing in life
199
Worry more about building your career and go as far as you can in your career.
200
Have more fun in life, you know, enjoy life.
201
I think I was very serious when I was younger, very serious about what the outcome was going to be
202
and to do all the right things and make sure people liked me.
203
And I think when I was younger, I was just too, I was very hard on myself.
204
Be more aggressive and have confidence in yourself.
205
That's one thing I did not have.
206
my father did not instill the confidence my mother tried to
207
but she was sort of under his thumb too
208
so it's not as if he was aggressive or abusive he wasn't yeah
209
but he was very old -fashioned in that respect what is one thing
210
that when you were younger you put a lot of importance on
211
and then as you got older you realized it wasn't worth
212
worrying about i was worried about money money money money money
213
that was a big problem was it worth worrying about in the end like was it worth consuming
214
so much of your time on yeah yeah
215
because i i now have this lifestyle
216
which i wouldn't have been able to afford otherwise i've been
217
i worked from the time my son was 10 years old
218
i stayed at work till i was 70 something wow
219
because you wanted to or because you had to both
220
but i did want to i enjoyed working i worked for
221
brown shoes okay i bought all my shoes there growing up i couldn't afford the shoes
222
when you see young people what do you think they're doing
223
wrong what do you think they can be better at you
224
know what it's not what i think it's how they feel about themselves i'm 27
225
so a baby i'm a baby yeah how old are you
226
you're a baby i remember it well 30 is a baby you know people who are 27
227
and 30 feel like their life is ending i feel like
228
if they didn't achieve what they thought they would achieve like their life is over
229
but you're saying just a baby seems like a silly thing to say but
230
when you're 27 30 just getting started exactly it's whatever you feel whatever you do my granddaughter graduated from university
231
and she wants to travel before she settles down to work
232
so she's working in a restaurant to save money to travel
233
all i wanted to do after i graduated was go to work yeah is she crazy are you
234
or is that does
235
that make sense no i think it makes perfect sense you have a long time to work at settle down
236
and so now while she has no ties it's time to travel
237
and grow in her perspective are you worried for them in in any way
238
because the world is
239
so different now than it was for you i know they'll probably never own a home
240
if they live here in toronto
241
and i don't know about getting a job it's a harder time i worry about them
242
but i'm glad that i won't be around to worry there's a lot of people
243
that don't want to have kids right now
244
and they say the kids take your money take your time your energy they take like your youth they take everything,
245
but you still recommend having kids thousand percent oh you know i have one friend she never had children
246
and she was quite quite okay with that
247
and then as she got older
248
and she saw me with my children i think it really
249
hit her i remember her saying to me one day yeah
250
and now i really do regret it
251
because i mean you know first of all they're babies
252
so you enjoy their babyhood then they become teenagers
253
and teenagers can be a pain in the neck
254
but they're also wonderful to watch them grow up
255
and go through their different stages then you see them get married they have their own children it's it's just so wonderful
256
to to watch your kids grow up and flourish
257
and then they become your friends does
258
that feeling ever go away of being a father
259
and like taking care of your kids and worrying about them i hope not
260
because i i i enjoy
261
that that's what i live for they're in their enjoyment their livelihood
262
when they take trips i try to put myself in their position
263
and you know regret that i didn't do it
264
but I love the idea that they're able to do it and that gives me pleasure.
