Default Brake Fluid - Alternative Use?

Before I discard the old brake fluid, is it useful for anything around
the shop? BTW, what's in brake fluid?

From my young years (early 50's), I was taught that it was made from alcohol
and castor oil. You can smell the alcohol----not sure about the castor
oil, but it makes sense.
