Workmate mentioned bitcoin back in 2010 or 2011, but I didn't research it properly. That's the single worst decision.

Also, I stumbled to it every now and then in 2012 and 2013, but waited until early november last year, before deciding to jump in, after some week or two "crashing my head against the wall" for realizing what amount of coins I would have if I had done my research back then.

Summer 2012. Diablo 3. I bought in game gold with bitcoin @ $3/btc - Spent 90 coins for 500 million in game gold.

IGG = 35 cents / million now.

I lose.

Do not regret: if you didnt buy that gold you probably didnt buy 90btc ^^

My only regret is not spending my life savings on Bitcoin back when I first learned about it, when it was going for $15 a piece.

Oh well.
I think a lot of people are in your shoes. Smiley
But then again, nobody can predict the future.
Some people like the risks of investing, some don't.

One of my biggest regret was being a lazy fuck tard. Back in August I bought 2 gpu's and all the stuff to build a small scrypt mining rig. At the time I was mining IFC with one 6870 @300kh/s and was holding about 110,000,000 IFC. Which at one point in the last 2 months would have been worth $11,000

100,000,000 was sold for vary small profit (huge regret) due to money issues at the time.

Also ended up spending a few months away from the bitcoin/altcoin scene from September to Decemberish. Which most definitely was a big regret

Most of all though. I regret failing to build the mining rig sooner which didn't get set up on till December 100% due to pure laziness

The only good thing from all this doom and gloom is I had forgotten about 10 million IFC on till one day in December when I happened to login to cryptsy for whatever reason only to notice it was worth $1,000.

Oh an another regret spending that money on crap I didn't need instead of more mining equipment.

So as you can see lazy fuck tard about sum it up

This post make me feel bad, as I am the newbie and after reading this post I am lost in thought about how many mistakes will be in future with me before I become a mature bitcoiner

As long as you learn from your mistakes you will succeed!

To not take it seriously when I first heard about it. Someone posted about it on an online forum I belong to and I laughed it off.  I wish I would have researched it more than just what was posted in the thread.  The mining portion was never really explained but if it was, I would have been greatly intrigued. 

I was off work waiting for back surgery so I was looking for a hobby.  Instead I ended up dropping a couple grand at an online casino. I would have much rather "gambled" with bitcoin.

Oh well, what could have been.

Not sure what was the time, could be 2010-2011. Managed to install bitcoin-qt and play around a bit. at last i removed it coz can't find where to buy it and it's kinda wierd and so alien for me at that time.

Actually one big mistake I made was not figuring out exactly how to use bitcoin when I first heard about it.

I though all I needed to retrieve funds was the address. So I got some bitcoins from a giveaway  back in 2012 or so and I switched computers and just wrote down my deposit address and figured that's all I needed l ike it was an account number or something.   

Silly me when I wanted to get into the stuff seriously and I don't have that wallet.dat anymore. . .

It's only about $100 worth of bitcoin in today's money but still.

I always look deeper into things, and my worst decision was not looking into Bitcoin, thinking it was a company. Sometimes I can't sleep because of that since I know I would have been all over it, and would have been all over mining Litecoin. It just destroys me just because of the things I could have avoided in my life, and because it gets me thinking about those negative things in my life.

My biggest regret is not knowing about it until recently.
