We all could have some different goals like with extra funds we could save more or less btc and every member could set his target no force movement in that but many times we have heard the line we have missed the boat and found out that this is not a new one as people have been claiming this from the initial days also.I found a similar thread and went up to read different posts about the viewpoint of members discussing how many btc they have.
Here is a thread from 2011 : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=12893.20
Some of the interesting quotes from the thread are here:
approx 320. Most in bitbills ;P
About 583, after spending some on Namecoins. I guess it's a lot to some people but of course I'm greedy so I wish I had more.
Reading this makes me really upset that I sold 112 (all) of my BTC a couple months ago for only $118...
Don't feel bad, I sold 5K for 1500€There are some other members discussing about hundred of owned Bitcoin and selling them at very cheap prices or say some are sad that they only have 200 or 300 coins.Many of them were miners in the early days but what i wonder is whether they still holds all those coins or not?
Here is one more proof to the same:

The reason why i am making this thread is to make newbies aware that sometimes we feel that we already missed the boat but in reality it has not started the voyage at all.All those coins if stored safely would now be worth millions or even billions if you made the excat calculations.
There are lot of altcoins that might be shining at this time but Bitcoin has been the king of CMC from long time and will remain the same and there are more chances of growth so you better don't get eroded by all such things like you missed the boat and do the same mistake they might have done.Just jump in and enjoy and stay safe.
