Have you ever thought about all of the different things that you missed out on? I'm talking about opportunities to make money that you've missed out on.
Opportunities in the Blockchain world that involve money that you missed out on.

The first thing that comes to mind, having been involved with this particular blockchain for a long time, is the incident in which SBD rose up 15 times.
That's right. SBD is supposed to be pegged at $1. In recent times we've seen it at much lower than $1. However, there was a time when it really did stay at $1 for most occasions.
There was also a time when it rose up to $2. I ran back to one of the forums I was on and told everyone that they might consider selling their SBD since it's worth double its value now.
I even read about a guy on Steem that bought a house with his SBD since it had doubled its worth.
Then it went up to $15.
Yep.
Talk about opportunity lost. I don't think many people were able to take advantage of that $15 price, but if you were Kudos to you.
The next opportunity that I think about is Tron.
I decided I was going to buy a bunch since I had gotten a bee in my bonnet about getting some. I tried to put some money into Coinbase, but for some reason it was having trouble accepting it. I tried and tried for weeks before finally getting my money in that account.
By that time Tron had gone up to about $0.15. I wasn't sure about putting money into it anymore. It then ran all the way up to $0.28.
Then it dumped.
I think Tron was one of the first coins that showed me how volatile the crypto-currency market actually is. I knew it was volatile, but I had no idea it was the kind of thing that could make you rich or make you poor in the course of a week.
Of course, if you want to look really far back you can go to the 2011 era in which Bitcoin was $0.01. I don't think there's any point in going back in that far though.
I do think it's worth mentioning ETH though. I definitely was eyeballing ETH when it was about $14. I couldn't figure out how to buy any though. It's not a simple process getting involved with cryptocurrency for the first time.
What a disappointment not pursuing that course of action ultimately turned out to be.
Of course I've been in projects that completely failed and ended up with me losing everything I put in.
It's a risk.
You can even look at Bitconnect and say wow everybody lost a bunch of money but that's not entirely true. There are also a lot of people that made a bunch of money near the beginning.
Sometimes it's about seeing opportunities and knowing how to take advantage of them.
I have a strong feeling that there are many opportunities around the corner.
One of those opportunities is in Steem.
Did you buy low?
It's priced at $0.41 right now, and I can tell you that is still really low.
I wouldn't miss the opportunity to buy more Steem.
Also, I'd be on the lookout for new opportunities just around the corner.
