What is your biggest financial regret?
Not holding on to the change from buying shit on silk road
Buying a bigger house when I could have made due with what I had. Tied up most of my cash that I could have invested and made a fuckton of money with rather than have it sitting in equity in my house.
Buying zcl at $100
buying TSLA calls
Not selling everything at ATH and hodling all the way down.
not selling chaincoin at the top
Not selling in january
Taking money out of crypto twice, once in June 2016, then I got back in May 2017 and withdrew September 2017, back in December 2017 and held. Lost it all basically. Oh well.
not buying more LINK two weeks ago when it was sub-20c
Taking advice from Jow Forums
Not buying bitcoin when it was a meme on /b/ and worth pennies. Also I lost two BTC in some scam sportsbook back when it was worth 30 or so.
More recently, any of a number of shitcoins I've lost money on. Take your pick. PBL is probably the worst though.
Non-crypto, getting married. That one sucked.
Selling my 1500 EOS stack in Mar for fucking Nano.
Ended up selling at a 55 percent loss.
Same, saw BTC on /b/ in 2010-2011. Annoying how many stoner fuckwits inadvertently made bank from it.
Hope you've since recovered from your marriage dude.
Not hodling my 1000+ monero when it was $1.90.
fuck man
I found out about ETH sub $10 with $30k in my bank account and somehow I'm still not rich.
Going to university. Instead of starting a business earlier.
What is your business?
I also saw Bitcoins on /b/ in the early days. But I just waved it off as everyone said it was bullshit internet money. I didnt think twice about it.
Renting
buying syscoin at 96 BTC
College
Thanks bruh, worked out alright few years on. Valuable lessons learned at least.
Attempting to daytrade. Not worth the minor gains and destroys your physical and mental health
not buying syscoin before the 96btc sell
Not looking into bitcoin, or crypto in general, earlier. Sounded scammy before I actually read the whitepaper(I was surprised there actually was a whitepaper in the first place lol). Easily the biggest regret. Nothing else comes even close. Been feeling like kys myself ever since I realized the mistake I've made.
Not being born rich
Gambling away millions worth of btc in 2010. Had no idea what Bitcoin even was, just that I could use it to play online poker. Sad thing is if I spent 10 minutes reading about the tech, I would have instantly known how big it would be. Didn't actually read about it until early 2017 lol.
I still have a screenshot of a straight flush where I won 88 btc lol...
Inviting a female roommate to live in the apartment. Four tenants in the apartment, every roommate before her (8 of them, to be precise) paid rent on time. First and only female roommate, 8 months in and she cannot pay rent on time. Missed two months rent and had to take out of her safety deposit to cover two others. She finally moved out two months ago and we got another guy who is doing just fine.
She only owes me about $1000 so not a very expensive regret, but a lesson I've taken to heart.
Im into everything. But I started with importing skin care products. And then I just expanded from selling products to creating a platform where others can sell their products.
i spent 22 btc on an ounce of some shake.
Neat
Holding ICX. I sold bitcoin and eth at the top, but holding so much ICX made it as though I held everything in ETH all the way down
Buying a bunch of stock options only barely understanding what i was doing. The amount of money lost in such a short time i did not think was possible
Not buying and holding a bag of confirmed shitcoin BNB when trading on Binance 30 minutes after it opened its doors to the world
underrated
wasting money on modifying cars
This. Have held ICX since it was first listed on Binance. It’s now literally at my buy in price. Worst fucking decision of my life. Everyday I hate myself for it.
These gooks have proven to be incompetent by missing deadlines and not giving a fuck about it. Never mind the stupid bug in writing their smart contract
lost $6K in ponzi USI Tech
Not selling in january. Not even a quarter of what I had... Which is my current total.
Not buying Antshares at 3$
Smoking marijuana. Shit costs me so much
i bought around $3. sold at around $8. so many crypto regrets.
I can change that bae
Not buying a house in 2012
Not buying BTC at $10 because I thought it was a stupid scam.
Nothing I could control since I was too young but I got a big one
>Starting a new business at the begging of 2008
>Partnering with with a fuckwit family who had lied about their business experience and the wife (who had 3 kids) kept trying to hook up with my Dad despite literally no interest on his part
>Not getting a better lawyer when your mortgage broker suddenly stops accepting mortgage payments after 20 years
>Getting forced out of a house that at one point in time was worth over $1 million and last sold for over $600,000
20 years earlier my parents had stock as part of a big trade out with a large firm who's tech would go on to be bought by another company and subsequently used by almost everyone in the world. CEO came in one day to a meeting of the shareholders and told everyone not to sell, that the stock would split. He sold his entire stake that afternoon and it crashed the next day. On paper my parents lost about $250k in 1990s dollars. As for myself I regret not buying into bitcoin when it was $4 or $5, but that was because some BS US federal laws were changing and I suddenly got locked out of my paypal account, didn't lose any money but couldn't transfer.
I sat on 30k while I watched FANG and Bitcoin. The two biggest bull markets in history, and I knew it at the time, and I did nothing because I was a coward.
getting a breast reduction
i could be making so much more camming right now
Wasting literally all of my weekends getting shitfaced and high in college and not building passive income streams and figuring out ways to make money. Time lost.
Not saving money and buying pot/tobacco
Not buying more Bitcoin than I did in 2016
Post em.
Don't get cheap about it. It's better to pay an extra $50/m than to get some subprime titties.
