Nah.

I sure wish I had invested in Apple when they went public or in the mid-1990's. Both times I had free cash to do it and both times I weined-out. Had I not been so risk-averse I would have been significantly wealthier. Instead I stuck with boring-ass mutual fund investment for the past 40 years. It's not exciting but there have been far more ups than downs so I did okay.
Woulda, shoulda, coulda! Me, too, Bot. Even after seeing one of the first i Pods on my way home from SF, I said to myself, "I have to buy Apple stock and still didn't do it. Well, I did finally buy some years later, and I've made a nice paper profit with it so far, but nothing like I might have done, had I not whimped out back then.
