Number-One Regret: Not Being Where It Was Happening

  The "it" in Greenwich Village in the late 1950s was music. And from being there with like-minded passionate artists emerged Bob Dylan, Billie Holiday and The Weavers.  The same phenomenon of being there together produced the greats in tech, finance and law. Back then, that was cheap. Now it isn't. But to be part of the big-bangs currently you might have to be based in regions with a high-cost of living area (HCOL).

The ethos was: Shun risk. If we did take a risk and it didn't pan out, society was quick to shame us. After all, our parents had endured The Great Depression. And then, wow, we were no longer tethered to whatever work situation helped defray the cost of medical care. Medicare + supplements such as provided by United Health Care or Humana covered so much.
