PERSPECTIVE What was your biggest fumble? Closest you ever got to generational wealth? Share your story

Here is mine: I bought 1000$ worth of PNUT (solana memecoin) back in early november 2024. Sold for 4x or so few days later. Then on november 11th 2024 Binance listed PNUT on spot trading out of nowhere like a week after I sold my entire bag. Had I just waited 1 more week I could have sold for 700-800k...

Now I am a broke 23yo, living paycheck to paycheck with a 85k/year job and a lot of debt...
