If it makes you feel any better, I heard about Bitcoin when it was under $1, thought it was a cool idea, didn't have any disposable money to buy any, and promptly forgot about it.

If it makes you feel any better, I heard about Bitcoin before you could even buy it, and I had a fairly powerful (for the time) quad-core machine I could have done a bunch of mining with.

If it makes you feel any better, there's a good chance you'd have mined thousands of bitcoins, gotten bored and forgotten about them, and lost the wallet file eventually :)
