Totally agree. 10 million dollars will never buy me those years back. With remote work I could probably make enough of a living to get by until I age back into adulthood. At the age of 6 I’d have a higher brain plasticity, so I literally could get smarter faster only this time I could direct all of my potential into something a little more useful then just learning how the world works. With modest investing I could easily get to 10 mil by the time I’m at my current age just due to compound interest.
And lastly I could easily reach 120, and with medical advancement who knows!
The more I think about it, being six years old again really wouldn’t be that bad at all.
Edit: Assuming I’m still me but only younger, it’s not like I’d have to go back to school again as I already have diplomas proving I’ve done that before. So I could probably just tell any potential employees that I have dwarfism until I age back up. With the right clothes, hair, and possibly a little makeup (to make me look older than 6), the second I open my mouth no one would believe I’m six and would assume I have some kind of congenital disease.
As someone who went through the NY public school system many years ago, I can confirm hats were/are hard banned. Like unless it was for religious reasons you really couldn’t even think about putting something on your head.
Cell phones were also banned in my youth but I guess times have changed?
