Getting the sack

What’s the best advice you’d give to someone younger than you?

“If I had a thousand sons, the first humane principle I would teach them should be, to forswear thin potations and to addict themselves to sack.”

That is a famous line from William Shakespeare’s play, Henry IV, Part 2 (Act 4, Scene 3), spoken by the character Sir John Falstaff.

I like a drop of sherry, and port, in moderation though.
