    I had nearly 4 Bitcoin in early 2017, when they were worth about $1,600 a piece.

    And I sold them all approximately 3 months before they became worth $10,000 a piece and approximately 8 months before they became worth $40,000 a piece.

    And I’m not sad about it, I made profit off of them, but it does make me a little bit morose and that I could have had 160,000 instead of $6,000 by simply waiting about 8 more months.

    An older couple who wanted to retire offered to let me take over their cidery, back when I was doing a lot more homebrew… I declined because I knew nothing about ciders, I’d have needed to relocate, and I was in my last year of college.

    Big mistake turning it down, even if I would have needed to relocate. I haven’t been properly stable since.

    I missed an opportunity to nab a free ticket to a George Carlin show because I couldn’t get the day off work. That ended up being his last tour before he died.
