I regret not being able to do anything for my beautiful 2 years daughter on her birthday, her mum called me asking if I wont be buying her anything for Xmas, no means.. I regret this baby T, God knows I love you a lot.

my greatest regret is listening to my father who asked me to leave the handwork I was know for to further my education, now I have left university since 2011 no job, wandering around from one friend to the other, certificate is useless, no means of restarting the business.
no Christmas for my beautiful 2 years old daughter, no means to celebrate .. no job! no means.. I'm useless, I'm so ashamed of my self Baby T, I'm so sorry, please forgive me, tomorrow will be fine.

I usually don't do regrets but this one pained me.
I regret going into business with a so-called friend.
I lost all my investment in one foolish move based on trust. The wicked guy ran off with all my money & lied about it. Still hurt till now. Never ever again will I partner with anyone for business till the day I die.
Sometimes we have the experience, but we just learn the wrong lesson. For instance, the lesson here should be not to do business with a friend or someone close to you, that's actually a rule, but you chose not to do business with anyone on earth again, and how's that possible?

Re: What Are Your Regrets For This Year? by 2extremes(m): 9:34pm On Dec 23, 2018
Where should I start from?
2018 is the worst year I have ever liveth in my 3 decades of existence in planet earth.
1. Loss of Job- really suffered when i lost my job because I invested all my savings on my msc programme. lived from hand to mouth practically throughout this year. I begged alot of people for food and clothing this year. Never knew to have garri in your house is a blessing. cant count the number of days i went to bed with empty stomach just to reserve the little garri i have.
2. Loss of Relationship - My girlfriend that have dated for 7 years left. This is a lady we are planning to seal up the relationship with by 2019 or latest 2020. You know how painful this can be? I really love her so much and I still think of her everyday. I hope she is safe. Even though she is gone, I dont think am ready for a new relationship in the next 5 years. Just haave to work more on my pocket and fix my finances. Then I can think of a new relationship.
3. Dropped out of my M. Sc degree- Just because of my loss of job, couldnt continue sponsoring my M.sc programme. Just have to withdraw personally. Almost done with my coursework and was one of the best student. So painful that I wasted money in securing and staring the programme.
4. Lot of failed promises and disappointments- Hmmmm. Disappointments here and there. Its true that you know the true behaviour of people when things are not fine with you. Alot of strangers are better than the so called acquaintances.
5. Loss of health - When you are sick and you have no money to take care of yourself. Nothing can be more depressing than suffering ib pains helplessly.
But all the same 2018 has come and gone. 2019 looks promising and am ready to figth back and recover my losses.

I'm not hoping. In every markets including the Gold market, there are bear and bull periods. If the Bitcoin price didn't dip after its all time high last year, then it would have been a case of great concern.

Read up about securities and exchange markets. You'll understand better. Ignorance isn't always bliss

Damn. 2018 was also a somewhat okay year for me but I didn't have it as bad as you did.

Hope you recover all your losses. Makes me sad to hear stories of grace to grass

Lemme quote my reply to the guy for your reading. I don't have control over the market. Even if otedola invested all his net worth into Bitcoin, he wouldn't be able to control the crypto market. The basis of my assumption is observing other securities markets

I regretted helping fraudulent people and wasted my precious energy, resources and time.
Karma awaits them. I also thank God for restoration and my promotion.
Please let go of people that are lazy and lack proper upbringing.

This year was the hardest year for me and also the year of my wake up call
me
My business was moving very well last year but I used the money to solve an issue

My business stop

I got admission to Australia but lack of incomplete funds scattered the plan.
I looked for a job nothing
I tried fiveer
I tried blogging
I tried learning Java
I tried learning flutter
I tried transcription

I never perfected any skill. I just noticed that my problem was impatience.

Interestingly I got into bet9ja because I was seeing groups on telegram that predicted matches though dem try sha I fund my account with 500 but I noticed that you can't withdraw from 5000. So bet9ja want you to subconsciously keep gambling so I quit. Right now I don't really don't know what my life will look like.
I have never been so scared in my life.

My passion has always been to create jobs and build profitable companies in Nigeria.

I read something teju Babyface said he said nobody will help you unless through partnerships.

I can't count how many times I've heard this same exact sentence being used to explain BTC's current position. One thing i can tell you is that, BTC being even above one thousand dollars defeats the original purpose of what BTC was created for, which is to be a universally accepted currency. Right now, it's more of an unstable investment than a currency.
Re: What Are Your Regrets For This Year? by kowalsky: 10:02pm On Dec 23, 2018
Well. Good year all in all. But seen better.

Major regrets.

Having sex with a girl I didn't love. Been celibate for over two years by choice. Then came this girl and I fell to her antics.

First time. Second time. And each time I felt like Samson getting his hair shaved. There's this thing about sex and I know it extends way past the rubato thrusting.

Luckily. Third time I got over the urge and turned her down. Then played down our friendship. Still know I had lost something.


I cared (and still care) too much about people. Both friends and people I don't even know. It's a deep flaw that almost always over shoots my budget. Spent quite a lot attending to needs that were never my concern.

Expectedly my finances right now are piss poor. My uncharacteristic frugality this year added to this too.


This happened quite a while. But strangely only this year did I start feeling regretful. I hate that I let my ex have much control over my feelings. Regret that I trusted her too much. Regret that I made myself overly vulnerable to her.

When the memories of the many things she did and I tolerated come to mind. I literally feel like flogging myself.

All I can remember for now smiley

Honestly bro I read ur comment before qouting @admin401.I never traded in bitcoin but few friends that took my advice in January this year are grateful.
The dynamics of virtual currency world is quickly changing.Bitcoin was one of the earliest if not the first but competition from others will definitely reduce their market/face value.so I don't see a unit at 20k dollars again.
Secondly if central banks adopt their own virtual currency then it will dip further.
Re: What Are Your Regrets For This Year? by Reuben2012(m): 10:05pm On Dec 23, 2018
hmmm it is well.

I resigned from my former job in Ibadan in Nov to purse another career job in Lagos that i believed will help me to develop my skills set. I was sacked after 3weeks on the job. My boss said she can't be training me and continue paying me salary. She has refused to pay my salary up till this moment and she is out of the country to celebrate xmas with her family. I cant go back home and also to my former job. I believe everything will work out for my good. Ijn

I agree with you. The bullrun of Bitcoin towards the end of 2016 was like no other in history. I just feel sorry for people that think it will repeat itself. They just can't imagine that it's over. It's a zero-sum game. For every one winner, they will be a trail of losers. For everyone that succeed in bitcoin, there's will be many investors that lose money, that's the concept of this kind of market. There's no reason for bitcoin to go up anymore, there are coins out there that are even better than what bitcoin offers, alot of them. It's over.

I need him dead & I need it done before the year runs out.
I don't want him to eat my money into the new year.
How do I send his details to you? I don't want a physical meeting mind you.
And I pay cash, no papertrail.
Thanks.
I understand your pain bruv. But do not take a soul, it's not worth it. Years to come, when you start making such money that the dude stole from you in excess, you will begin to regret why you ever took a soul because of what he did, cos the truth be told "Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity". Life is in phases, Men are in sizes, life is dynamic, nothing as a matter of fact last forever.
Your largest income right now that you're bragging about is someone's Tithe, the money the dude stole from you in years to come won't have any value again. You will die someday and you ain't taking no money along with you. Do not let the devil use you and destroy you.
