No More Missed Opportunities! From 1988 - 94, I worked as an A/V Services Tech in and around the Greater New Orleans area. During this time, a lot of the events featuring the tech goliaths having their annual events. Once, at a tech event, I got to talk to an Economic Forecaster. He suggested I invest $5K- $10K in Microsoft, Sun and a few more heavyweights. I didn't and tbh I had $6,500 in my pockets at the time and $10K in my sock drawer at home (I was in my 20s working 60-100hrs a week making $8 to $17.50 an hour in the early 90's). Instead I spent the money on trying to produce a Straight to Home movie based on a rap album a friend put out. The label took my money, script and footage, never paid me and sold the movie using my script for $100K... Fast forward 2010-11, I was offered 1,000 bitcoins for $100 by a guy I knew from an online forum. I knew nothing about Bitcoin, thought it was a scam, so I passed on it at the last minute. Long story short... I WILL NOT LET OPPORTUNITY PASS ME by in 2025!
