Oh memories...  If only the people who were posting about this topic back then had any idea what would be coming down the line...  As a once member of this club myself, it wasn't as amazing as it now would appear.  Relatively speaking, I was quite poor when I was a member of this club but very much still a believer in Bitcoin's potential.  I think the mistake that I made was thinking there would be more time before the world caught on.  Everything happened so fast that it was difficult to hang onto your BTC and resist the temptation to cash in massive gains, even back when the price was below $100.
