''I always pass on good advice. It is the only thing to do with it. It is never of any use to oneself.''

Some things, like chocolate cake and shopping sprees, are best when you actually enjoy them yourself. Some things, like love, and a good joke, and GOOD ADVICE, are better when you share them with someone else. Why would you get good advice and want to keep it to yourself? For instance, if you know that there's a speed trap on I-95, doesn't it make you feel better to signal other people to slow down? If you know that Chang's Garden has the best egg rolls in town, don't you tell your friends they have to eat there? If you keep that advice to yourself, what good is it? And what good are you?
That's what it means.

Its a joke about how seldom people actually follow good advice, because is often involves work. People would rather tell others how to live their life rather than do the necessary, difficult things in order to succeed.

it means that people never follow good advice, they just tell it to other people.
