I vaguely recall hearing this story before. I think it would give me lifelong depression. F***

I'm not sure which is worse; having accidentally thrown them away, or having actually had that many one time but spent them all on stupid crap and/or lost them all gambling. At least if you threw them away, there is still a slight hope that someday they will be found. If you gambled them all away, they're truly gone forever.
