Well this is about the most honest and, dare I say it, needed speech that EVERY young person should be obliged to read at least once.

Of course, were I young now (as I once was) then I would completely ignore it and do what I wanted to do anyway – the impertinece of youth perhaps.

(my parnter, who is cleverer than me has, of course, just stated firmly in my ear that she would not ignore it – but then she is much more worldly wise than me (at least – in the words of the famous prophet :- She is a legend in her own mind) 🙂

s are youll end up working for     one.
