I was advised to marry a rich orphan.

I also got that advice. I am in my sixties and I am not sorry I didn't have children.

You bought your home in the country, now you're in the city. How do you feel about that? Do you ever wish you were back in the sticks, surrounded by nature?

Good grief, don't marry him. He's a LEO!

(Actually, I didn't marry him, but it had nothing to do with his astrological sign.)

I followed a bit of advice on a tech stock and lost a whole lot of money. Never forget it!

I can't really remember any advice that was terrible; would have done well to follow some that I did get, but didn't take seriously...

Never did get any advice that suggested that a female was in any way more limited, or shouldn't try to fulfill dreams-- whatever they might be. On the contrary.

Born in the Boom generation, people were more likely, as I recall, to be cheerleaders of both boys and girls. Boomers tended to get tons of encouragement, in my experience, and lots of flattering praise from adults that wasn't always justified, at the time.
