Opprtunities of the Past

Probably shouldn't even bring this up....but what the heck.
Any of you ever wonder about past opportunity that you have passed up?
Myself:
1. High school and college buddy offered a govt deal in Alaska in the early 70's........working on DEW Line.........offered a 6 figure income then!!!!!1 month on ice 2 months in,.had security clearances to have done it...
2. Another high school and college buddy offered a position with WhipStock Inc......Arabia and North Shore oil........again 6 figs...
3. Applied with FBI on a firearms training deal.....had certs to get it....was accepted in 76.......had downgraded from GS16 to a GS5........declined it...
4. Turned all down and left family businesses and decided to pioneer it.........
