Blue pill all day. I'd never give up my daughter and we could spend the rest of our lives vacationing.
I'm liking the "going back to when I was 6 with all the knowledge I have now" option, but in reality 6 year old me would probably be too immature to know I need to remember it and by the time I needed to use that information in any sane way it would have been long forgotten.
I mean some people are saying get bitcoin early days, but 6 year old me was at least 10 years off Bitcoin existing.
It would also really suck knowing how easy it was to obtain information in the future only to be stuck in the past and barely have access to the internet at all.
Red pill. Would save so much more in childhood trauma and that's priceless.
Here's my take, if went back to when I was 6, I probably wouldn't have the same friends I have now, like genuinely amazing friends. I'd rather not live though middle school and highschool again.
So I'll take the 10 million dollar blue pill.
Red makes more potential money (buy Apple, buy BTC) but that means it would be almost impossible to meet all my friends and I need to make new ones. Ugh I hate talking with people
Knowledge respawn, easily. 10M is chump change compared to what you could make just diamond handing two pizzas worth of BTC in 2010
Red, easily.
Yeah, some childhood stuff would suck but you could probably skip a good few grades. As you already (hopefully) know how to socialize by now, a lot of the childhood friend stuff seems pretty optional.
Dating would be really tricky through the early teenage years as I don't know how I'd feel about girls my own physical age at that point.
Because I'm relatively older and would have insane future knowledge, I could absolutely rock in stocks and have enough money to actually effect change. (Eg, singelhandedly fund a massive Democrat turnout machine in the rustbelt for 2016.)
The hard part would be somehow connecting with my current group of friends whom I love to death and wouldn't want to lose. They are the only thing that makes the blue pill tempting.
I'd like to go back with my memories, but might run into some sort of time cop situation. It's a tough call.
Red, and then just get bitcoins early on and invest in tesla, by the time i'm back at 2024 I would have way more then 10M
Red pill. My dumbass thinks I could "fix" the people that fucked up my childhood with the knowledge I have now
I'd have to wait 10 years to buy Apple at $0.07 per share, but I think I could collect enough money to make that into more than $10 million.
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.
Blue pill, it said you revert to a certain age, but not a certain time, meaning any information you've kept could be useless in an unfamiliar environment.
Also, it never states that time and reality will play out the same exact way, making said knowledge even more useless.
It also does not say about a location in space. So it might be Venus.
Gimme the money, I'm counting down the years I dont want any extra xD
Is there a "$5 million and an 'AGE - 25%' " option ?
I'd be happy to go back to being 37yo with $5m and still dying at or around (or earlier) than my current unknown death day!!
If I'm going out, its with a lot of bang[ing]!
These "would you rather" memes are mind poison when both sides are impossible fantasies
This post is really revealing which people are happy with how their lives turned out and which ones aren't.
Red, that would give me 30+ years of life. I would also try to get older healthier.
Blue pill. I'm young enough (37) that I'd lose far more than I'd gain if I chose Red. The knowledge I currently possess can change the world with 10 million.
