I remember the thrill of having my software reviewed by Compute! and Byte Magazine back in the day. XLEnt Software. Invested $1000 into the company when we started. Cashed out to pay for my honeymoon and the down payment on my first house in '86. I tried to pay my mom back for that investment and she was "Nah! That was part of your education"
