re: OT What do you most regret in life????
As people say it's best to try to not have regrets but unfortunately human nature doesn't seem to allow it.
Not my biggest but one from me around work. Was at a job where I had to give 3 months notice but most people left after one. Found a new job but involved an hours drive each way so secretly hoped my existing company would match the offer as travel wise it was much more convenient. Procrastinated because of this, ended up staying 3 months and then left. In the interim period the new company had it's IPO and gave 20,000 penny stock options to all employees, new and old. Wind the clock forward 18 months the company was sold and each penny option vested for $34.81. You do the maths on what that procrastination cost me :blue:

No regrets!!!
Could have taken an amazing apprenticeship with Laporte Flourides back in 88.
Had I, I would certainly be much richer than I am now, presuming I got through the 5 years.
That said, I wouldn't have met my wife or had my 3 amazing children.
Life is a journey and there's no room for regrets!!

I'm with Rileyev. I could have gone down different career paths, I could have decided to play the field a little longer, but instead I settled down with my missus.
I'm not a rich man, but I have a gorgeous wife and three beautiful, amazing daughters.
I would not change one tiny little thing from my past, or I may not be where I am now, which is very happy.
I wouldn't mind a lottery win in the future like, but if not, I am MORE than happy with the hand of cards fate dealt me.
