- When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
- Make peace with your past so it won’t screw up the present.

Wooow!!Nice toughts!! Life is a journey which starts from nowhere and ends nowhere!!What a cycle!!
This is an amazing adventure that begins somewhere and ends somewhere.
Whats the name of this man. Where is he from.
LT..? Details Plse!
Ya! ba LT. We need to know so that even as we read we know how to relate the advise
Am I allowed to plagiarise these words of wisdom? If not, who should I quote as the author of the same.
Exactly!
Good grief, this is the cheesiest list I have ever seen, and there are a lot of repetitions, e.g no. 19 & no 25.
This is just a wish-list from an old man. Most of it is very UNREALISTIC and simply not practical!!!!!
Nicely said…but the Bible still speaks everlasting, truthly profoundly and better
nice list.People take themselves too seriously and like to criticize where its not even necessary.
this man sound frustrated anyway. some point are not applicable.
Analyst..you are shallow minded huh!! Those are words of wisdom that each person takes for their situation and time. Dont castigate something just because it does nt apply to you. Be mature and analyse before you raise your ugly comments
Thank you LT, thank you 90 year old man, this is better than any news i have ever read, yesterday i wished i could read something positive this week and WOW you just gave me that, LT my listening site.
This is briliant more than words can express, am yearning for more, keep them coming, am gonna copy this thank you sir, mwaah!
Very valuable words of wisdom. We need to reflect on most of them deeply.
That’s because you are the old man.
I have read all such things; including: 1) If you want your wife to be an angel, create a heaven for her. 2) If you want to know the character of a woman, deny her money and if you want to know the character of a man, give him money
Well this is one of the best lists i’ve ever read, to be honest if this was on Facebook i wouldn’t have reached number 10, simple because everyone thinks they are Life doctors. Please LT dont publish the old man’s name, we are better off not knowing the man behind the word. Knowing these Diasporans on LT they wil attack the personality of the old man and bring in Politics.
Three life lessons you all need
1) make money
2) Make more Money
3) keep making more money
I like number 40. hehehehehe
i lyk number 13. all in all the list is amazing with alot of wisdom.
