Invested in Nike, Apple, & GE to name but few things.
The left lane is for the the purpose of moving the flow of traffic forward regardless of the speed limit. If your impeding the flow of traffic get your ass in the right lane. It's really that simple...

Been less selfish, less prideful and a much better husband to my wife when we first got married. I also would have made better choices in my teens/early 20's.

Bought land along the gulf. Go do that now. Very good investment currently as I'm sure you know.

These aren't necessarily regrets but things I could have done differently.
I would have been nicer to some folks.
I would have loosened up a little and had a little more fun back in the day.
I would have not locked down into some of the long term relationships I was in.
Started saving and investing at age 10.
I would have married my wife a little sooner and not dated for 5 years.
Started my career in a place other than Birmingham. Maybe Hawaii. Once you anchor yourself in an area it is hard to go anywhere else.

I would have followed Christ sooner and more faithfully. The rest would have worked itself out as it should be.

I would've been a better father to my kids, too late I've realized that a lot of the crap that I got upset about never mattered, too often my decisions were based on emotion.

I would have left my first real job much sooner. I would not have had steady girlfriends in high school. My wife and I would have moved to the coast for a while before having our child.

I would have kept that old brown Shovelhead (79 FLH). It was kind of like a woman, act right some days and not so much other. But it sure was sweet.

Too many things I know now I wish I'd known then, and thinking about 'em is beside the point.
I'd have hugged my grandmother and mother, and spent more time with them before they died, though. I know that for sure.

Most of these are worth reading and might be valuable for people to read. In particular younger folks. Its not really beside the point. It is the point.

Put it all on UA to win the 09 BCSNC/Heisman, AU to Win 2010 BCSNC/Heisman and UA to win 11.
Wonder what the odds would have been and the payout if I laid about $50K down.

Driving a souped up Ford Probe should get you dumped. I bet he wishes he would have rolled with the punches now.
