Some people will argue if someone says it's raining outside....
Nothing wrong with regrets, but as Willie said I also wish I hadn't lost money gambling in my colllege years. But I also learned from it and now that I have money I'm smarter with it with investing, long term type stuff for my kids. Had I not done stupid in college I might not know what I know now. Yes I regret not investing that money then instead of blowing it gambling, nothing wrong with that.
Same goes for not banging more chicks when I was younger. If I had maybe I wouldn't have met my wife or have 4 great kids but I would be lying if I don't think about sex in my younger years and what I missed out on.

Not taking enough risk...
I came up with the talking greeting card and meal delivery kits before those dropped. Would love to be investing in pre IPO companies right now but haven't a clue. Will read about interesting people and ideas but I'm hardly social or a schmoozer..im not cold calling people offering 50k or whatever negotiating a deal. Having good ideas doesn't mean shit, having dough doesn't mean shit you need idea, dough and then connection..missing any component you are toast. My social skills destroy all hope of grand success

Hindsight is definitely 20/20. The smallest little thing can drastically change/ end your life. Leaving for for work 30 seconds later could mean the difference between dying in a traffic accident or passing through an intersection unscathed, it's just random stuff you cannot control, trying to analyze it will drive you bat-shit crazy ! You might be very happily married and have several great kids, but may have never met your wife if you had altered that day you met her even by a few seconds !
