Assume you are between 20 and 25 years old. Which pill would you take? If you take the BLUE PILL, you won't go back in time. You just become a 10 years old of yourself living in present time.

Take red pill. Money in pocket is always the best.
Unless you are the only child in a billionaire family. Then eat blue pill. So that you have more time to spend your parents' money.
What will you do if you were a neutral state?
I came across an island (can't remember the name) which both stronger Athens and Spartans want for its strategic location. Athens wanted the island to surrender and join them in the fight against Spartans. The island king refused citing neutrality and hence it was conquered by Athens and all the males executed.
Is this a right move by a neutral state?
If you take the red pill then you lose 20-25 best years of your life. You still can take the blue pill and become a 10 years old kid again.
While money is important and but by taking a red pill, you lose 20-25 best years of your life. Is it worth it?
Well. You can choose to take neither. You neither gain nor lose anything.
Reflect on 2017 and look forward to 2018.
I will take the Red Pill. I could be young with all my knowledge, but not have the resources to change anything and the world is getting worse and worse. House prices are on the rise as well as water levels. I would have to wait 8 years to be able to do anything as a legal adult and the world could have already ended by then. May as well lose 20 years where I would have had to work hard to survive anyway, and just take the money as a middle aged person. At least I can enjoy, donate it away and help people who need it now. Age 45 onwards is not so bad if you are healthy. If you are nothing, at least you have $50 mil to do something about it.

For the vast vast majority, they don't have $1 million from 25-45 but those are the best years of your life. They are priceless. No amount of money can compare to those years of your life.
If you are 25 years old and take the blue pill, you would gain 15 best years of your life. If you take the red pill, you lost 20-25 best years of your life. Those years are priceless. No amount of money can compare to those 20-25 best years of life. If the world is going to end, the $50 million would become useless. Are you American? If so, real estate is not that expensive. Here in Victoria, BC, Canada, the cost of housing is very high. Even so, I would rather just rent a room than lose the 20-25 best years of my life for $50 million. By the way, I am 39. Even at 39, I would still refuse to take the red pill if I could. 6 best years of my life is more important to me than $50 million. Did you watch the movie "Ninja Assassin"? There is a phrase in movie that said "Every moment you live is a gift". I think it's true because no matter how rich you are, you could be done at any moment including someone like Steve Jobs.
You are not so much asking for people's opinion, rather trying to force your view upon us. If you believe 25 years of life is beyond any amount of money then so be it, but please do not impose your thoughts on others. I am 37 myself and although I enjoy my life losing 8 years for enough money to ensure that I and my loved ones are financially secure forever is definitely worth it.
Why do you think all those rich people work 12 hours a day, never seeing their family, missing out on the childhood of their children are doing it for.
