How many times have the Simpsons blown their chance at riches? I can think of:
1. Half Decent Proposal 2. Tomacco 3. Bobo 4. The greyhounds 5. Burns hits Bart with the car 6. The electric hammer 7. Designing the car (not rich per say, but $80,000/year + rich brother) 8. Going to work at the other plant (forget the name) but better pay, nicer city, self-cleaning house, etc. 9. Was there a reward for the babysitter bandit or just the t-shirt?
Anything else you can think of?
In #082 9F21 Homer's Barbershop Quartet, maybe
What happened to all the money you made?

IIRC, which I probably don't, Homer didn't blow his chances there, barbershop quartets just went out of style. It's not like he walked away from it when he could have gotten rich, like they have so many other times. How about when Bart becomes Burns' heir?
B'OH!
Ok then, how about in Episode #150 3F19 The Curse of the Flying Hellfish?
lisa refusing her 10% of the profit from the sale of the little lisa recycling plant -- that was $12 million in hand.
CODE BLUE, CODE BLUE!!!
Well, I tried!!
The biggest of all (except maybe Tomacco):
The $10 million they could've gotten if stupid Lisa had taken the 10% fee from Burns after he sold the Li'l Lisa Recycling Plant.
I like Lisa, but sheesh, she could've taken Burns' money and donated it to a charity.

Uh, Rick Nelson, 10% of $120m isn't $10m... it's...

Homer didn't screw that up, he was cheated out of it by Moe.
He yelled out the secret ingredient which presumably would have made him AND Moe rich...

Right. Moe had just decided to sell it and split the money with Homer.
