I have lost much than what I have earned or saved. Through gambling I have lost more than 25btc, which is quite a big amount for an normal user. But I lost these when the price was around $350. Now if this has happened I could have ended up everything running for my daily food.
Yes that was a waste but you cant go back to what you have done.
And at that time we want to double our bitcoins as fast as we can because of the low value of it.
For now, we could just be wary of this things because of the great value. Every bitcoin will count now though we could still gamble a few for fun.
Saving is really hard considering there is gambling circulating in our forum.
Yes I agree from looking back to your past and just getting regret from it is not a good idea. Failure is sometimes good in your life because they make you tough and provide you an opportunity to learn from it. This is what when people say that make your weakness your strength. So just put down it beneath your foot and stem on it to the success. There is still a great chance.
