What was your biggest opportunity cost?

What was the biggest amount you could've earned but lost. How did you deal with the feeling?

Maybe 10k because I quit my job when I didn't need to and didn't bother to get a job for a short while.

Holy FUCK where do I begin?
1. I should have done the 1st 2 yrs of college at a CC BEFORE turning 18 and then transfer for an online degree at a cal state. Did this BUT late as FUCK in life and now everything is a mess.
COULD HAVE graduated at about age 20 with abysmal debt. Now, I'm almost 24 and need 13 months to finish it BUT I need 38k for surgeries on my legs so I probably won't finish it til age 26. Shit.
6 yr opportunity cost there.
2. Went to the electrical trade school because I was convinced universities were a scam (they are, but debt can be mitigated). Some guy told me to try the electrical trade. Turns out I hate it. So basically, I wasted 2 years getting an associates degree 100% useless outside the trade. Had I just stuck with the bachelors, I would have been done by now.
3. LOOONG story short, trained from age 12-16.5. 2-3 hrs a day. 4.5 yrs. Did 100 pushups in 1 min and 20 sec as a 12 yr old.
Skip to age 16.5. Did 17k pushups with 45lb in a month, 51k situps in a month, curl a 20lb dumbbell 1800 times per arm without stopping, almost maxed machines I used in the fitness room, curled 50lb dumbbells, etc.
Stopped because of my height (5'5"). Became EXTREMELY suicidal. Been 7 years of non-stop suicidal thoughts and obsession for leg surgeries. Swore off training until I get the surgeries but by the time I get them, it will be too late. Too late to fix me. I could have broken world records at the pace I was going.. it's all over now.
4.5yrs of training + 7 yrs of not training = 11.5 yr opportunity cost. And it keeps growing until I get the surgery... and won't get them till about age 25.
4. Rejected relationships from actual 10/10 girls. The were all fucking HOT, but I was too self-concious about my height hence the 38k I need to get taller. Could have had a companion by now, not anymore. The 38k will take 1 whole yr AND will drain all my savings AND cost me an electrician job (1-2yrs of recovery).
Continued...

Another opportunity cost? Bitcoin. Everyone here missed out on that.

Also, because of the 38k I need for the surgeries, that's more time I'll be stuck living with my parents AND that's less money that could have gone to investments (gambling with crypto and also affiliated marketing).

Long story short, my life is so dogshit, I will probably commit suicide by age 28-29ish. Won't touch 30. Will also chemically castrate myself after getting the surgeries.

bought like 90k ada on the dump after it listed on bittrex (like 250 sats). Later regretted it since it was doing jack shit and moved to other shitcoins. It went from 2c to $1.5 in 1 month, could've went from like $1600 to 135k. Im still feeling like shit from that these days, fucking crypto
