I regret not getting in on some investments early on in life. I didn't have a lot of disposable income at the time, but even a little bit would have netted a decent return.

The only other thing was opening a restaurant. I had the chance to obtain a shoreline parcel on Georgian Bay in cottage country and did not take it. I was thinking a Fish and Chip/BBQ/Ice Cream place with decks overhanging the water and dock slips so people could drive up in boats. Maybe have some overnight slips too.

Number one regret of people facing their deaths is not having had the fortitude of will to have lived the lives they wanted; rather having tried to live how others wanted them to live.

Number two regret of people facing the end times, is that they didn't maintain close relations with friends and family. They didn't put proper importance on maintaining their social relations and rather focused on things like careers.

That I have heard…

1. no kids

2. didn’t apply themselves when they were younger.
3 did stupid things

[Ms_Facesitter]

Things they never tried, never said, never found closure

[OlderAndWiser]

I regret never having children.

I regret I didn't start my slave collection earlier. It gets harder and harder to loosen all these knots after a particularly intense session.

Why does it get harder? You should get stronger and stronger as your balls grow bigger and bigger.

Regret of not doing certain things which they think should have been done, or things that could have been done differently. I am not talking in terms of relationships.

It could have anything, even for old people who have been single.

Not living life to the fullest when they were young and physically capable.
Not preparing financially for retirement.

[flautistnaturist]

passing on less virtuous preoccupations to later generations

[AngryCarl2]

Not making the most of their opportunities. Putting stuff off until tomorrow, because tomorrow never comes.

[genericname85]

probably not having spent enough time with certain people.

[Nikki1989]

They didn't do all the things they wanted to do.

[peedy]

Should've , could've, and would've
There are to many to say if only I knew that what I know now

[Jmmmfi4]

I should have done more with my life and the time I had

[exitseven]

So many things that I never got to do.

[gorydetails]

Not doing things, ususally.
