Instead of being down, and thinking about what your biggest mistake was, how about letting us know the one thing you are most proud of, or the happiest moment in your life.

Mine was losing a lot of weight, and now feeling good about myself.

The time I ate so much I puked. It was both my proudest and saddest moment culminated into 1 :cheesygri

I once ate so much that I puked. It was both my saddest and greatest achievement in life! My meal consisted of 1 large pizza, 2 pieces of another pizza, 1/2 lbs of hot wings 1 litre of coke, a massive heaping pile of chinese food (chow mein, rice, dry ribs, egg roll, chicken balls, chop suey etc...) then to finish it off, a large frosty glass of milk. I then puked and my buddies coined my nickname "supermodel". After I puked I was hungry again because I lost ALL of the food, so we went to BK for junior whoppers :twisted:

If I have to pick one then it'd have to be making the finalist in a national competition.

The others close to it is being undefeated in regular season in a rugby league. Finishing a half marathon. Getting into university when I was rejected in the first place.

That's about it I guess.

Making my first million at only 19, and I'm very proud of my parents who taught me how to be intelligent with my money; which I've invested and expect to double by the time I'm 21.

I thought of the concept behind the puzzle game Angry Birds which is now available on almost all touchscreen-based smartphones! The game has sold over 12 million copies. I earn %31 of each sale for all Angry Birds™ distributed content.

Holy crap dude! That's awesome! Do you get a copy of the proceeds if they expand into other markets (ie. A movie) Are you single? ;)

My proudest moment was running a full marathon at age 20. Was never a sporty kid growing up, but was inspired when I saw footage of people completing them when I was 19.

So, you made your first million at 19, are 20 years old now and... work in retail? (http://forums.redflagdeals.com/photoshopping-coupons-illegal-1034565/#post12833122)

Yes, thats right. I work at an Apple Store! They pay me promote Angry Birds and other App Store games to people who are considering purchasing an iPod or iPhone, since Apple is know trying to market them as gaming devices. I make approximately $78,000/yr working there, plus all additional Angry Birds sales that I'm help to promote!

So it must have been while you were a server at several major restaurants (http://forums.redflagdeals.com/ask-me-anything-about-your-favourite-restaurants-1024204/#post12693957) that you came up with the Angry Birds idea. It's too bad that despite you working at the Apple Store and promoting apps, you still need to ask RFDers for help when it comes to Apple updates and demanding that Apple pay your $25 internet bill (http://forums.redflagdeals.com/should-i-complain-apple-demand-they-pay-my-internet-bill-month-1020427/)

Story checks out!

Finishing my first marathon would probably be it.

After feeling like crap with cramping legs at the 30km mark and knowing there's still 12.2 kms to go, crossing the finish line feels like the most amazing thing in the world.

Now I just have to top it someday with an Ironman finish.

I don't have as many as most do. I would say either graduating high school, bench pressing 300 lbs.

One day I was walking on the sidewalk and I saw a very old woman carrying two grocery bags, they were quite heavy and she was bent.

So I offered to carry them and accompany her to her house.

When we finally arrive there she thanked me profusely and offered a glass of milk...

I politely declined and went my way.
