    While blue is the easy and tempting option, and I would live comfortably without needing to work ever again…

    I would choose red. Considering I am approaching 40, and going by family history, I’ll likely get cancer in my 50’s or 60’s… I think choosing red is a good solution to basically get extra 30+ years of life.

    Also, with the forenowledge, there is a huge potential for life saving actions. While I don’t think there is much I could do as a kid, it’s worth a shot and I would have time to figure it out.

      No amount of money can ever buy you more time. Only a six year old should take the blue pill. That’s the moral of the story? I don’t know, it’s just a meme I guess.

        Some people have fucked up childhoods and reliving them isn’t an option. I would take the money, I would never go back to that hell willingly.

            Some countries don’t have a robust foster system or a system at all. I would be rolling the die on homeless in the street in a dangerous place with dirt and flagstone roads.
