I personally feel there are countless instances where I never took the valuable advice of my friends/relations! One instance stands out prominently. In 1989, I resigned from a leading Multinational Pharma company, though my manager pleaded with me to stick on. He pointed out that I would be promoted the next month. I didnt listen and resigned the job. The next month, I was told that all employees of that company had been allotted shares. Those shares (if I had reamined, would have amounted to Rs.15 -Rs.20 lakhs(taking into account the bonus shares issued over the years!) in the Indian Share market today!

Yea, for me it was regarding boozing that I didn't take a decision, way back in 1990! It has cost me dearly over the years!
