Paying over 200BTC for a BFL Single, that only made back about 12 BTC.  Yeah that sucked.  I hope they all rot in jail!

Buying a BFL pre-order is probably dumb as it gets for me.

I first heard about BTC in 2011 and it was valued at $10 a pop (and people said it was over-priced lol). Seems like 99% of people heard about BTC early but only few have taken it seriously enough.

+1

I sold loads when it hit $10, If I kept them, I would be worth Millions!! I kick myself everyday since.

No need to. A lot people say I'm holding bitcoin till it reaches $100K they will most likely sell before even hitting $10K

I just posted this up today in another thread!

won 2000 bitcoins gambling back in october 2012.
lost 1500 bitcoins a few days later to the same site... I had developed gambling addiction.. and only way to get over it was loose big time.. after a massive win Sad

when BTC got to $1400 I was mega depresssed. That was the lowest I had been in the hole drama.

Now I am kinda over it. If BTC went back to $1400 I wouldn't be to fussed..

Not like I would of held them all till it reached $1400... probs would of sold em all at $30 thinking $30 was the max it will get to LOL Sad

I should have walked away from a property I was $200k under.  I felt like I should do the right thing and be responsible so I kept it, but I could have walked away like everybody else and save myself a $200k loss.

Almost everytime I make mistake. I'm a bad trader so I just buy and hold now.

I once accidentally placed a sell order not realising that it would automatically execute and lost 0.2BTC Sad then I also paid attention in school and when I think about it if only I had ignored school when I was 13 - 14 and did all the research I've been doing now I would be a hell of a lot smarter and I could have passed my GSCE's properly.

getting a girlfriend  Tongue .  Seriously, that was the biggest financial drain I ever had.  Other than that, I guess buying an HD DVD player thinking it would win out over Blu-Ray Cheesy

true that -- never lost anywhere near the same $$ on anything else. but it's been worth it for me. ahh, trade-offs. Smiley

I got into bitcoin in 2010. I even solo mined several blocks. I then got bogged down by trying to finish college, forgot about bitcoin, formatted my computer and lost all the coins. Yeah, that one stings.

You could have bought a slice of pizza with those blocks that you solved in 2010.  Such a waste, a good slice of pepporoni!
