Reading books in the elevator got me a promotion from working in the call center -> becoming an analyst. Changed my life trajectory. The VP of Finance saw the books I was reading, we had a brief convo and then he offered me a job the next week.
Second most interesting one is I bought $180 worth of option calls on Heinz Ketchup, and then they randomly got bought out by Warren Buffett. I think it was a total of $28k in profits at a time when I was making maybe 30-40k/year
