Holy huge mistake Batman! That’s some list you have there. Well, it’s all in the past now. You seem to have made some nice strides since then. Keep up the good work!

Madame X, Yup, that was a big number. I’d actually avoided calculating it for quite a while.

You notice that I also didn’t total the numbers on the list. That would be too depressing, even if a ball-park is easy to put together, the specific number would be much more weighty.

That said, I actually spend very little time regretting choices. I’m very much a “don’t cry over spilled milk” kind of guy, this was just for fun and to join the fun of the reverse carnival.

Oh wow, until I read this I had totally forgotten how much money I was spending on PDA gadgetry for a while… I sold a lot of the stuff on Ebay but I’m still sure I wasted a lot of money just to play with new toys. I’m pretty much over it now, but I’m sure one of these days there will be something new I want! And for what it’s worth, I do get a ton of use out of the PDA I have now.

Your lost $487k from Dell is a doozy!

hehe…those are great! Don’t feel too bad, most of us have made similar mistakes as well. It’s what you learn from those mistakes that ultimately counts in the end.
