Awesome post.
I have made what some would consider "Questionable" financial decisions at the time.
1. Took 10K in from my investment account and 10K Home equity loan and bought Google at IPO for $21 a share.
Wife thought I was NUTS.
2. Was the first investor to get a 5% stake in an upstart company to develop an alternative Air Conditioning system.
I wish I could post a link here- they are still accepting Accredited Investors, PM me for more information.
I force my family to live on my income. The rest is in the bank. All 6 of my kids have their college paid for (and they don't know it).
Adding to #4 is to FULLY FUND your ROTH IRA every year.
