In 2006/2007 I borrowed £1000 off my dad to leverage trade forex and at the peak I had increased it to £5000. I thought I was king but then the trend changed and I got rekt and lost it all.
Looking back, without that experience I wouldn't have spent the next years thinking about and then building a business to make honest money without gambling.
Also, because of this, I was instinctively suspicious of shitcoining when I finally found bitcoin.
Getting rekt early and relatively small is a blessing.
