It gets really tricky giving advice. The older I get, the less advice I give.
Meaning of the quote
As you get older, it becomes harder to give good advice to others. The more experience you gain, the more you realize that everyone's situation is different, and what worked for you may not work for someone else. So it's better to be cautious about giving advice, and instead, focus on sharing your own experiences and letting people figure things out for themselves.
