#2 - Not selling my properties and putting it all on bitcoin again once it went back down to $3,000.
This graph is a quick find. It is from Sept, BTC is at $13,600 now.

One of my roommates started mining Bitcoin in 2009 (might have been early 2010...) while we were living together. He told me I should start mining too and gave me info on how, I ignored him. He then offered to link our machines and use my desktop during off times giving me 50% share of our combined take. Again, I blew him off and didn't let him use my hardware. Finally, he encouraged me to drop a hundred dollars into it (think it was ~$10 at the time) to just sit on it. I took no acrion.
Today, he's retired in his early 30s. I'm still paying off student loans. Yeah... Ive got a bit of regret.
