Not spending my money before the children inherited it and squandered it in a few months.

:-D@Errol

To have regrets would mean not having done everything that i could have done and i have never been a what if type

So based on that a large lottery win would have been good but only because i would die knowing that my children and grand children would not need to work them selves into the ground as i have had to do to have a reasonable standard of living

@ PorkiePie

Not quite everything but something that may have in some way avoided tragic circumstances because I didn't want it to look that I was 'poking my nose in'.
This will never, ever hold me back in future from voicing my thoughts in situations that I feel need intervention rightly or wrongly - I would rather be un popular than stand aside and do nothing.

Unfortunately I am that ' what if type' big time. :-(

Not telling some people exactly what I thought of them ( good and bad!)

Hey Rambling Rose and Uzzie , I agree , so what is it that stops us now - is it the fact that the people we would like to tell these truths to are so important to us that we don't want to hurt them or we don't want to be regarded as ogres. I would much prefer the hear a truthful opinion from someone that knows me than a load of lies just because they think that is something I want to hear.

@Porkie Pie - Roy.

Sorry you have misunderstood the point of what I posted. I suppose what I said didn't quite link in with your reply to the question of the O.P. But I can only repeat that my regret will be now and at my moment of death the answer I gave above.

No! I don't feel sorry about anything, not the good things people have done to me, not the bad things, it's all the same to me.

No, I have no regrets.
