Are these not simple formatting options we want to get rid of?
I paste into a new email set to plain text, then copy back out.

Start good habits now that will benefit you when you're decades older. Sleep, fitness & diet would be the main three.
You’ll still be able to run around with the kids while everyone you know will be deteriorating a lot faster, if they’re not already dead.

Get enough sleep, and don’t smoke. I didn’t follow this advice, would consistently stay up late talking to friend on school nights, or pulling all nighters to catch up. As a result I am shorter than my father and both my grandfathers by a few inches. I’m convinced that’s what did it.

Vodka also works pretty well, as 'cause anything alcoholic or acidic will do the job. If you're dehydrated and your piss is super concentrated you can use a dropper and drip a few drops into the ear.

Learn to drive and get your license. Since you are already working start a savings account and contribute to it whenever you can

Smile a lot, enjoy life. You may not have answers to everything but be okay with that.

It’s never too soon to open a retirement account. Compounding interest can turn $100 into thousands if invested while you are young.

There is a serious lack of skilled labor in heavy industry in the US. Think metal processing, logistics, cranes, material handlers, railroads, shipwrights. The trades are a small portion of this. The real money is made in moving, processing or building large and dangerous things.

Don't smoke cigarettes thinking it'll make you cool. You'll regret it later in life. The same with excessive drugs or alcohol.

Are there people that don't do this? I've been doing it since I was 8 years old.

Exercise. Being in shape while young makes it infinitely easier for when you’re older.
Use sunscreen everyday.

Do College and Trade School when you finish High School. Trade schools normally last about 6 months and will get you a decent wage that you could potentially live off the rest of your life. College has tue standard college benefits
