Got any that if you had just been in the right frame of mind early on, you would looked into buying some stock, but just didn't think of it ... then turns out missed big ... I have a few, but a more recent one was shutterfly ...I was using their services for over a year before I thought to look at the stock.....was about a 6 bagger after that....

You ?

In 1992, good friend told me he was buying Nike and I should do the same.

What would it be worth today?

worked at Garmin and was waiting for the IPO but left the company and did not buy when it went public, I think it moved from the 30's to over $80 within a 2-3 yr period after going public, not exactly a get rich quick stock but not bad.

I watched it dip to $18 shortly after the IPO and did not jump in. That was a bummer. Also, thought about getting into Walmart back in 2009, right after the recession, because I had a little money, but decided not to. Those are currently my "WTF was I thinking?" stocks.
