Are you asking for advice on how to handle these people, or just venting?... :1orglaugh
Please, sir! You're rapidly approaching 30 years of age, you should have had all of this stuff worked out by the time you had consumed your first legal beer!
Let me guess... dad was somewhat of an absentee character, correct? Well, can't help ya, I'm not experienced in this regard.
Just Think: I'm OK, you're OK and you should be just dandy,
Got It?

The first thing that jumped out at me when read the thread title.
@ OP You seem to to talking about a couple of different things. Getting advice and getting constructive or otherwise criticisms.
Both are useful IMO if you're inclined to appreciate reasonable advice or constructive criticisms. If not....just do what you seem inclined to do in the first place...ignore it.
My advice
....listen to everyone irrespective of station, occupation, wealth, etc. You never know when the most minor nugget of wisdom from the most meager of individuals may hit you one day and make a difference.Good advice never changes...just our ability to appreciate it one day.

I generally take my penis out of my pants. It generally makes people stop talking. If it doesn't, I put it into their mouth.
Talk now, bitch!

First thing- do a "check yourself". Are you doing fucked up shit? Maybe you need the advice.
Second- consider the source. Is the person giving you advice/criticism doing fucked up shit?
3.- ignore, embrace, or reject.
If you just want to dismiss them say the following- "A wise man speaks when he has something to say. A fool speaks because he has to say something."

It's not that strange to make this thread. I'm obviously asking your advice on a situation involving people asking me for advice, but since I'm allowing you it's ok.
It's not so much that I'm doing messed up shit it's just people are always comparing my situation to there(job I do, things I should think about doing)
It's none of their business. They just think money and status is life itself and everything else means nothing. I couldn't care less about impressing others, I just do my own thing.

AFK..being taken to the vet to get neutered.
the vast majority of people constantly seek more power. More power over worlds, countries, towns, work environments, family, friends, social circle, their trailer park, trailer, significant other ... it's the flip side of the curiosity drive we talking apes have.
And one of the easiest ways to assert power is to try and get someone to do something the way you would, or want them to, regardless of context or suitability. This is where the unwanted advice comes in.
It's part of the rich tapestry of lie; unfortunately, most of the threads of that tapestry are made of pure bullshit.
I suggest developing some rapier-esque foils so you are prepared for the next unwanted advice sessions.
I always find 'I think you must be confusing me with someone who gives a good fuck what you think' works very effectively.

Nobody can tell another person with certainty what is good advice and what is bad advice. The distinction between good and bad advice is very personal and it requires a combination of knowledge of oneself and common sense. It seems as if everywhere we turn others are giving us advice, or an opinion about what could or should be done about a situation or problem. A key to success is knowing the difference between good and not-so-good advice and acting on the good advice. As Wilson Mizner wrote, "To profit from good advice requires more wisdom than to give it."
Take my advice, I say this not to make you skeptical of any advice I may have to offer, but to admit that any advice I give is advice

Don't do heroin. Don't get drunk and drive a car. Don't fuck allot of different people you don't know without condoms.
Those are not examples of 'good' advice irrespective of person or circumstance?

Well, here's some free advice for you.
Be courteous, kind, and forgiving
Be gentle and peaceful each day
Be warm and human and grateful
And have a good thing to say
Be thoughtful and trustful and childlike
Be witty and happy and wise
Be honest and love all your neighbors
Be obsequious, purple and clairvoyant
Be sure to stop at stop signs
And drive fifty-five miles an hour
Pick up hitchhikers foaming at the mouth
And when you get home get a master's degree in geology
Be pompous, obese, and eat cactus
Be dull and boring and omnipresent
Criticize things you don't know about
Be oblong and have your knees removed
(Ladies only) Never make love to Bigfoot
(Men only) Hello, my name is Bigfoot
(Everyone) Put a live chicken in your underwear
Go into a closet and suck eggs

some people are just like that.
they give their advice to try to make themselves out to be better than you, smarter, more experienced.........I've known a lot lot that.
some actually do care to some degree and they think they are helping.
you can be polite at first and just yes them but if the same person always does it eventually you have to show them that you don't care.
P.S. Stay away from the ponies.

Depends if their heart is in the right place.
Some people give advice because they genuinely care. Others give advice to make themselves look better.
The latter, you just say "I don't mean to be rude, but I'll figure it out by myself, thanks anyway".
To the ones that care, you simply say "Thank you" and ignore it.
