MtGOX was one of a few situations which would have led me to having a million in the bank if not for seemingly small changes. Alas, it didn’t happen, and honestly there were many other ways that it would have otherwise not happened. Sure its fun to multiply tens of bitcoins I once owned by the all time high, but this is about as effective as thinking about picking different lottery numbers. It would be nice if I got every coin back from mtgox, my balance would sell for something between a nice car and a nice house these days, but this is reality, reality has risks, and I made risky choices and got the results which I did.
