I’m over 40, chose red, have things to lose, and am confident that I’ll have a good life again, but better in many non-monetary ways, though apple, Microsoft, Tesla, Bitcoin, Hasbro mean the money side will also be alright
Easy, give me the blue pill. My mistakes and choices have brought me to where I am and have made me who I am. I wouldn’t change my life for anything, especially not to correct a few mistakes. Most importantly I may not have met my wife or have my kids if I change anything. I’ll take the money and use it to improve the life I have.
Not sur if you’re joking but anyway take it easy bud. Things get better over time, dont let bad things and people get the best of you, they are not worth it.
10 million cash instantly would get you killed so fast, just look at ANY article about lottery winners getting their life just absolutely fucked up. Resetting at 6 would suck too but at least you would get something out of it.
It’s not so hard to put it in the bank and hire a wealth management firm. They’ll take care of you and tell you how much you can spend each year without losing money. It’d turn into a free $500k salary for life.
It really isn’t that easy but you are on the right path. First thing you have to do is convert it into a form that nobody is able to withdraw quickly. That removes all almost all incentive for greedy/desperate people to try and kill you for it. Good luck doing that with 10M in cash, though. Large volumes of money are nowhere near as mobile as you think it is.
Red pill is too vague. Do you go back in time to when you were 6? If so then red pill is good because you could just achieve all you’ve already achieved faster and you have more time for other stuff. Do you just turn into a 6 year old? No thanks, not about to restart on hard mode.
Also is that time really that valuable if you’re going to spend a significant part of it threading the same ground?
That why I’d take the blue pill, clearer outcome and with 10 mil I could easily improve the quality of my time. For instance by completely ditching work I have much more time to see my children grow up.
Clear outcome? If red is “become undocumented child in 2023” blue can’t be simple.
Blue would have you watching over your shoulder for who the money was taken from, or the money would be taken off you as evidence of crime, since no one has millions from nowhere, and it’ll be very hard to hide
Blue. No mistake reversion or bitcoin investing would outweigh possibly never meeting my partner again. With Blue, I have everything I could ever want from this life, with red, I may lose everything important to me now.
Absolutely. Anyone who would go back in time purely to make more money is a fool if they think having more than 10 million dollars would make a tangible difference on their quality of life. Who cares if you make a billion off of bitcoin? For 10 mil you can be extremely comfortable and don’t have to relive some of the most awkward years of your life. Only way it would be different is if your choices got someone killed or something.
So true. My wife and I are high school sweet hearts but also both very different people now. The boy she fell in love with initially I couldn’t properly emulate. We were deep into Christianity and even met at church. We’ve since both lost our faith. I wouldn’t be able to pretend without her seeing through my bullshit.
I think, if you went back in time and started, for example, trying to get rich playing the stock market, you would be surprised by how much things change with your interference. Like, Bitcoin still goes up, but peaks at a different price. The same team wins the super bowl but by a different score. The longer things go on the weirder it would get.
Except not since you would have to replicate your current life to the smallest thing imaginable, and if you didn’t it would cause a butterfly effect meaning you probably wouldn’t get this opportunity anymore
Red. Maybe I can stop my mom from being terrible. Also Bitcoin. Also holo first edition Charizard! Also I wanna be in the Fallador massacre on RuneScape! Also I’ll get Internet famous!
