With the red pill I would have knowledge of my neuro oddness stuff which would have been SUPER FUCKING HELPFUL. I could have avoided all the self inflicted misery of middle and high school. I only can guess at what I would be doing as an adult if I were a self aware and confident kid.

Don't get me wrong, I love my life despite the path that I took to get here but I feel bad for little me.

which is one digests better in my ass?

Red pill if it means I go back in time to when I was 6yrs old. Blue pill if not.

Edit: having to live through puberty again would be painful, but there's a fair amount of stuff I could, and likely would, do a lot differently.

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.

No restarts. Blue pill.

Everyone is choosing red because they think they would be rich, but would they?

Imagine having the knowledge, that you knowingly stepped back in time, and all of your memories are now not real. They won't happen again unless you actually act exactly as you had before. No one believes anything you say because you are 6. You're forced to go through school again at 6.

Let's say you use your genius to progress quickly through school. Those sorts of kids become famous prodigies. You would end up on the talk show circuit with Ellen.

You would also know way more about your parents than you should at that age, and cause familial issues that would land you on Dr. Phil.

Imagine how torturous it would be to relive every moment, not being able to convince anyone of anything due to your age, unless you give up the fact that you were somehow sent back in time and know the future. Would you be able to convince your family without going insane? Would any government agency take qcute interest in your foresight? Imagine having to keep a level head while also going through puberty a second time.

How much will your presence affect the timeline? Maybe your first big move to get rich causes all subsequent moves to not exist. Maybe your parents hate you. Maybe it's chaos theory. Maybe you end up taking a path away from opulence and become an addict due to the constant anxiety, regret and boredom. Maybe you become a nihilistic mess that drives you to a worse life than you had before.

I'd take the definite of $10M. I know what I would do with it right now. I know it would be good.

Edit: a downvote without a reply telling me how I'm wrong is really an upvote.

I guess you have to take time. It's invaluable. Plus you have great investment opportunities.

Back when I was 6, in 1983, my uncle who worked in the oil industry told me about global warming.

I could totally have been a real radical environmentalist, but I was 6.

A second time around that talk would have an impact, and with some foresight for the next 40 years. I think no one would be surprised if I devoted everything to fixing global warming - they might be surprised at my success in the stock market.

Blue. I wouldn't change much about my life rn, but an extra 10mil would be awesome.

With six it would give me the opportunity to move to my dad and spare me 6 more years of torture and violence. I'd take that even over 100 billion.

Hold on I have to look up all the winning games so I can become a billionaire just by gambling.

After that red pill all the way

Do I go back in time to when I was 6, or do I remain in the current timeline, but 6 years old?

I’d imagine with all my memories and knowledge and basically being an adult, I’d probably have…desires…that vastly exceed my age. So that’d be pretty awkward.

In the current timeline would be interesting. I’d have to get a remote job that doesn’t need me on video, but assuming my paperwork still says my original birth year, I could probably keep on renewing my license for several years and at least have a valid adult ID. Even if I can’t drive or buy my own weed/booze, I could still maintain employment at least until I have an adult body. I’m assuming the sorcerer also gave me an identity that matched my new body, so I could probably coast through college at some point

But the weirdest thing would be being able to be both my kids peer and their parent.

Red pill duh

Team Purple.

6 years of age would put me in 1978.

There is a lot I could do from that point onward, that would make $10M look like spare change. Like investing in Apple, or working with Tim Berners-Lee to more effectively launch an Internet that could better resist corporatization and enshittification.

Fuck binary choices. I'm taking both. Radical free will baby!

Red Pill of course. I have plenty of things I think I should have done when I was still in my elementary school. I also want to correct big mistakes I've already done, if possible.
