What was Trelawney's first correct prediction?

If this is Snape's second chance, what did he do with his first?

How did James and Lily get all their money?

And this is probably only a Minor Mystery, maybe even a Teeny Mystery, but
it still bugs me: why is the spell to bring someone back from
unconsciousness "Enervate," when the root of the word means nerveless or
weak?

I'll probably think of others.  Thank GOODNESS the wand order thing has been
solved, so we don't have to keep hashing over that.
