A wize man said once.....Lets see how this viewpoint will change over time . Regret level is a direct function of degree of pain inflicted, whether it be financial, opportunity cost, emotional, mental or reputation ? :lol

among all the factors u mentioned, opportunity cost is the biggest....u can always make more money in the future, u can "usually" find more time to do things u want in the future...but one thing i will never know for sure, opportunity cost, i devoted my time and resources during this specific time... what would something nicer or more meaningful could have happen if i were unavailable.. regret or not..time will prove..
but u made a good point, regret level is not fixed, it's highly subjective. so one day if i suffer, i know how to stay positive

I think you and young blokes under estimate the potential financial/wealth pain by saying you can make it back. Most young people do. A wize man said when you are 18 you feel you can conquer the world, when your 30 you feel you can conquer the world, and when you reach 40s all you want to do is survive. You learn success is due to randomness. But most over confident blokes think its because only their hard work and smarts was the driver of success until the outlier or black swan events cuts them down below the knees. :lol
