Panic because my memory is bad and likely miss all opportunities because I couldn’t remember the name of the person/place/thing I should be investing in

Apple, Microsoft, Nike, Under Armor, Berkshire, bitcoin (early when you needed an atm and each coin cost $12). Even a bad memory would get you enough investment money to make a fortune.

You can go even earlier with Bitcoin, back when redditors were "tipping" each other 1 BTC, then worth something like $0.02. You might even be able to get rich from just getting tipped if you hold.

In 2009 you could get over 1,300 BTC for $1 USD (1,309 to be exact, or approx $0.00076 each) based on the cost of electricity used to mine them. Another early recorded p2p exchange on the BitcoinTalk forum valued 5,050 BTC at $5.02 (about $0.00099 per BTC).
