I bought 3 rental houses. My idea was that the renters would pay enough to make the payments and I would own the houses free and clear someday. Instead, they tore the house up, called up all hours of the night and did not want to pay their rent! I wound up selling all three houses at a loss.

I married the wrong one the first time, too. But I did get a beautiful daughter out of it . Seems like a lot of my "dumb" moves were about relationships. Think I finally out grew that phase!

Well i encourage my husband to buy a boat! What a wrong choice. I did not like boating and it was an expensive toy!

A boat is just a hole in the water you throw money into!

Oh Ruby, that sounds like something I would do!
Like some of ya'll, I also married the wrong one. Also, agreeing to move to Colorado! That was a dumb mistake from day one!
I think this is one of my "better" ones -
Years ago, I worked at Cracker Barrel on the evening shift. My car had broke down so my ex (then husband) had been taking me to work and picking me up for almost 2 weeks. One evening when I got off work, I walked outside and since he hadn't arrived yet, I sat in one of the rockers to wait. About 45 minutes later, I was beginning to get worried. One of my co-workers came out and offered to give me a ride home. Imagine how I felt when I walked in and he looked at me and asked "Where is the car?" For some reason, I had completely forgotten that I had driven to work that day - the car had been fixed that morning! We got in his car and went to pick mine up, sitting there nicely in the parking lot. Talk about feeling like a jack***!!

I got in the wrong car one time. It looked just like mine, but the key would not fit in the ignition. I sat in it for about 5 minutes trying to figure it out!!
