What's the worst money/investing/business advice a normie has ever given you?

>"Dude, you should sell weed."

when I was a wagecuck there was this guy who talked way too much. He told me about one of his million dollar ideas which was basically a floor mat that had conclusions written on it. The idea was that it could be used in a game where people "jump to conclusions". I have no idea how that game would work or be entertaining

go to school and look for a job. wagecuck 80 hours a week, buy a house on pump.

One thing I see on normiebook quite a lot is people posting stuff where saving money or trying to get money is discouraged, and 'living in the moment' is supposed to be better.
This is usually posted by people who have done nothing in life and live with their parents or a council house.
For some reason, people who post inspirational quotes are usually people you should not take advice from. Same thing applies to people telling you to live in the moment and spend all your money.

You should take your age and use that to determine the % of bonds in your retirement portfolio.

I'm 24. I'm not putting 24% of my retirement savings into bonds. What kind of horseshit is that?

I've heard so many /fit/ related pieces of shit advice from normies
A classic was 'if you want to lose weight just drink water with every meal'. Don't bother changing your diet, just drink water as well. Or the other classic 'just eat salad'. Even though the dressing has more calories than a big Mac.

Heard this on a timeshare presentation (walked out when we realised it was a timeshare presentation)
'People who vacation twice a year are less likely to die of heart disease so what would you rather do? Eat rabbit food for the rest of your life or go on holidays?'

I spend $20k on a house deposit when BTC was $60. Was talked out of it by "wise investors".

I spent $15k on collectible currency on advice of same wise relative when BTC was $400 a pop. Shit has barely grown 10% a year.
