    What piece of advice has always stuck with you?

    Doesn’t have to be related to scrapping…could be anything!

    My dad always said these two things and, of course, as a teenager I didn’t pay any attention but they’re both really good pieces of advice and I try to keep them in mind wherever I go.

    “It is better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it” (Which definitely applies moreso nowadays with scrapping and running a business)
    And…
    “You don’t have to know a lot about a little, but you have to know a little about a lot”

    My dad is still with us and was always a hardworking guy. We always had food on the table and a little fun money. And now I’m starting to realize that he wasn’t as dumb as I always thought. I hope he sticks around a bit longer.
