If you could turn back the clock and change one major decision in your life, which one would it be?

I have only ONE regret in life--after 80 years that isn't bad--really to long to get into but I gave up millions of dollars to get out of a bad 'situation' BUT at the same time if I hadn't done that I wouldn't be where I am today--a very happy, positive old man so maybe I wouldn't have changed that decision.

If the situation you got out of was bad then you made a good choice Martin.

I think I would have been different in my relationships. Chosen better. The men I chose were not good for me. I guess that would be the major change I would make. And, spending more time with my grandparents, parents and kids.

I guess we all have learned the hard way not to waste time on unsatisfactory relationships.

That's a really hard question. I can't think of anything right off the top of my head. I have a lot of decisions that I regret but they have made me the person I am today.

There are a few, I can say. But, we all have a path in life. Like my Mom always says, there is, sadly, no going back, there is learning from and trying to improve.

Thankfully for most of us life is a learning curve, not a downward plunge.

It would be the person I married. Though I wouldn't want to give up my children. So as much as that was a bad decision on my part, the consequences of a do over wouldn't be worth it.

This is why it is difficult to answer the question, one situation leads to another which is not regrettable!

If i got the chance you are talking about. I would definitely change the way I treated my parents. I owe everything to them but now I feel I never behaved properly with them. They were always so kind to me but I never understood their feelings. I always was busy in my friend circle.

I guess a lot of us would think along these lines, taking our family for granted and only realising their worth when we had wiser heads on our shoulders.

I would have declined an invitation in 1981 to go to a meeting on meditation with an attractive girl - she actually recruited me into a cult which I broke away from in 1985

Oh that is hard one! I think I would have started work earlier in life and then would have been a lot more experienced and successful now.

I am fortunate enough to have no regrets in my life - I would not want to change a thing!

@martygoldeng you have given a great deal of thought to that but riches have to be made which might involve a change of career?
