I have to admit to a similar story myself. I shot in JPEG format for a long time and only discovered how versatile RAW images were after using the camera for quite a while. I look back at some of the old pictures I have taken and wish I had taken them as RAW so that I could rescue them.
I realise that I lack the eye to ever be more than an amateur but at the end of the day at least I can make picture which appeal to me now.
