And kicked yourself for that $180 Taco Bell when it peaked at $18,000, right?

Just as much as you kicked yourself for spending $2 on Taco Bell instead of buying Bitcoin at the exact same time.

It's the same thing.

To buy Bitcoin, sure. When it hit $18,000 you would still look back at the $2 (then) worth that you spent at $200 / bitcoin and regret it.

This a completely emotional argument, there's no logic behind it, you could also regret spending $2 at Taco Bell instead of on Bitcoin.
