In 1984 a complete stranger told me that I should learn to program computers.
I wish I had followed his advice.
I took a “learn the basics on how to operate a computer” course at the local college years ago, and on the last day, the lady instructing the course mentioned to the class that if any of us had a few thousand dollars we’d like to invest, she had just invested and would highly recommend the company.
I had never heard of Intel back then and couldn’t afford to gamble.
