A five-minute CBC Radio WireTap farewell video in which people of all ages offer words of wisdom to younger people. The advice is short and funny, and keeps coming back to the point that nobody really knows what they are doing.
Commenters bring it up in threads about life advice and aging as the best advice they have heard, namely to ignore advice and do your own thing.

The best advise I ever got was this. ▶ this video Don’t listen to other people’s advice. Nobody knows what the hell they’re doing. Just do your own thing.
Best advice on this topic: How to Age Gracefully | CBC Radio ▶ this video [Spoiler] "Dear 91-year old, don't listen to other people's advice. Nobody knows what the hell they're doing. Signed, a 93-year old." [Edit] This was originally passed down to me through RSS from: link
This reminds me very much of the video How To Age Gracefully [1]. One thing I think is missing is a "From: a x year old" for each bit of advice. I think the advice to someone in their 20's would be quite different coming from someone in their 30's vs 70's, and that in itself could be very interesting. [1] ▶ this video 4m40s
