Worst financial decision you ever made?

[tdwinklr]

I’m afraid I’m about to make mine. The wife wants a pool and I can’t talk her out of it

Just leave it empty and throw your money into it every week.

Had an opportunity to invest in a natural gas well, but was stretched financially at the time.

Followed the production of the well, and it would have paid for my kids college within the first week.

Not buying more gold. In 1986 I had the opportunity to buy 1oz Gold Eagles for $350 each. First year of re-issuance. I only bought two because 350 was my weekly salary and my rent.
Did no do too bad considering Gold is $2900/oz now. But if I ONLY had better foresight on inflation. I was only 22, tail was on my mind. Not money.

Pool= hole in the ground you throw money in.

Boat= hole in the water you throw money in.

Worst financial move I ever made, was spoiling my wife. They live a long time and can't be unspoiled.

Too many to count but the one I always say I regret the most is selling my 67 RS Camaro in 1989 not realizing what I had.

Had a 67 RS Camaro too.

Buying any GM product… should’ve bought a ford.

I was in HS in 86 & had every opportunity to get into the game along with buying Apple & Nike stock for a long time. :-)

I would get beat up if you guys known what guns I shouldn't have sold.

Funny story growing up down here & we would go to spi as a really young kid in the late 70's & I would ask Dad about all the 'for sale' signs & let's get something cuz it's really kinda cool down here...he told me 'nobody wants to own sand son'

my ex, spending my bitcoin on pounds when it was $8/coin and transactions were $3-10k, listening to my buddy who told me netflix was a bad investment at ipo, same guy told me not to get involved when a private investment group brought us the option to buy into Stubbs BBQ sauce, that investment would have paid for my grandkid's retirement

1) Not listening to random man at IHOP for breakfast back in the 80's. We were both reading the stock market page. He was interested in Motorola. He said everyone will have a phone in their car soon. I didn't listen because everyone already had CB radios.

2) Selling a 1971 Corvette. Hard top & Rag top. Red. 454.

3) Not buying acreage out around Plantersville when it was cheap.

4) Trading a Dan Wesson .357 because I didn't have enough cash for another pistol I just had to have.
