Wow - this quote is about as close to having no regrets as you can get and still saying you'd choose differently.

Do I regret it?’ Well, I would probably put it this way. If I knew what I know now, which included all of the opportunity, energy it would take away from the core business I would have not entered [the agreement]

She basically said the money she was paid didn't improve her bottom line enough for the work involved. That's pretty darned far from "regret".

It’s the closest capitalist analogue to regret.
