James Howell, an IT engineer from Wales, threw away a hard drive in 2013 containing a private key that gave access to 8,000 #Bitcoin worth ~$450 million. He is still searching.

And you complain that your wife has left you because you don't sell #Bitcoin.

There are 4 billion potential wifes but only one #Bitcoin key accessing your wallet. Be grateful.

Ouch

Talking about regrets 😮

Pays to be a hoarder I guess. I have a bunch of old hardrives, but pretty sure none of them have half a billion in bitcoin on them.

I didn't buy 8000 Bitcoin in 2013 when I could easily afford it. The only difference between me and that guy is that I didn't throw away a hard drive. Now he's combing through a trash dump and I'm not. Human psychology is very weird.
