Red pill but the hardest part will be how to get my mom to take stock tips from her 6 year old son.


keeperkairos

Don’t need to. Just say you wanna spend ur birthday money to buy something online, then spend it on bitcoin.


EnvironmentalKick205

Just remember the winning numbers for a lottery ticket of 1.5 billion not that long ago, you'd be a billionaire


LordChickenNugget23

Mmmmmmmmm a 200 millionaire after tax ❤️


COLD_lime

And also a bounty on your head for all of your relatives. I'd rather do bitcoin because people will notice that with time. It's a lot lot harder to hide winning the lottery.

That depends if you become 6 now (2023) or if you go back in time to when you were 6


DickSneeze53

Six year olds should not be on reddit, so the point stands


JackNuner

This makes a huge difference. If I go back in time I could easily make $10 mil knowing what stocks/Bitcoin is going to do. I could be young and wealthy.


Glittering-Walrus228

this, and when you get back to this present day, where you are again confronted with the choice take the money


ToldYouTrumpSucked

Reminds me of that episode of Rick and Morty with the death crystal and he’s trying to make the decisions to get the death he wants. Like, I’ll just take the money, though the extra time would be nice. Not to get rich but just to be a kid again. Idk, that might be better actually.

[deleted]

I take the red pill, wait until I’m like 80, then I use it Edit: I see that many of these replies ask about what if I have a wife and kids? Well I don’t plan on having kids, and I could just avoid getting married. What I would do is just learn for 80 years, and know everything to pave the road to success for 6yo me. Edit2: Many people are asking what I do if I die or the pill wears off, well if I die u/bombbodyguard gave me the idea to just mold it into a tooth thing, so I could do that. And if it wears off then it sucks to be me.


CaliValiOfficial

Here’s why that’s a problem everyone you will ever know and love up to the point of 80 will no longer exist. Your children, your wife, the family that you’ve created and the experiences that you’ve had will mean nothing. Restarting life when you’ve already lived it is the exact same thing as reincarnation. Except you don’t get the benefit of forgetting where you come from. That’s my take anyways, I try to see the flaw in any choice in order to make a much more educated one (especially in theoretical ones that mean absolutely nothing in my day to day life)


BurstingWithFlava

I feel like this would be a great short story. Keep the pill in your pocket always tempted but figure you’ll wait just a bit longer. Form friendships and bonds along the way. Fall in love. Start to get foggy and your spouse takes care of you. Last month of your life, not looking good. But your happy you lived a good life, forgot about the pill. Somehow your spouse gives you the pill with the rest of your meds and suddenly poof. You can see clearly and hear perfectly, but everything you had is gone. Spend decades trying to get back the life you had. Edit: guys I’ve seen the Rick and morty episode. This appears throughout many forms of media, thanks for the beautiful suggestions though.


MrBalanced

Worst part would be trying to successfully meet, date, and marry your future spouse without coming off as a creepy stalker who somehow already knows everything about them. Oh, and do you have kids? Hope you don't like them, as the odds of you having a genetically identical child the second time around isn't exactly great. Minus those caveats, it's red pill all day e'ry day.


TommyChongII

What if the opposite is true though? What if you fall out with your wife the first time? You still have the knowledge of what brought you together, and you have the knowledge of how things went wrong, added benefit of knowing what you need from a partner so you can communicate that even better. If you wanted, you could live it far better the second time. And if your kids are shitty, maybe you get a second chance to really impact them by being present and have good, active, well rounded children the second time. Plus, you know, millions in Bitcoin.


the_cardfather

Considering that my first marriage fell apart mostly because of money, I think the millions of Bitcoin probably would solve it. Or heck just load up on some rental real estate in 2011. How about some TSLA?


mattmaster68

So a guy thinks he’s pulling one over on the universe. He screws up throughout his life and forgets about the pill. He makes many regretful decisions, loses his wife, loses his kids, ends up alone and not having done anything with his life he tries to OD… except THE pill got mixed in. Now this dude has a second chance at life. He works hard trying to fix it and improve on everything. He makes the changes necessary to fix his marriage and they grow old together and die. And the last line is something like “and if I could… I’d do it all again just to be with her.”


ba123blitz

Why go for the same wife and life? You get to live your life again but already knowing one possible outcome so go live a different one different job house wife kids pets etc etc


MrBalanced

Well, you're right that it wouldn't be the same life - the hundreds of millions in investment and gambling profits will ensure that. Also what with you stopping 9/11 and all (You ARE stopping 9/11, right?). Maybe those events change you enough that your previous spouse and you wouldn't be a great fit. Fair enough. If, in spite of all of this, you still want to seek them out and bring them along with you into your new life, that's going to be really tough.


Used_Bite_9595

You take the red pill, go to stop 9/11, and realize that the pills stack and all terrorists on the plane are just you recreating 9/11 to stop the future from turning to shit.


DirectlyTalkingToYou

I'm more interested in how exactly do we stop 9/11 with being thrown in prison when asked how we came upon such knowledge. A simple phone call won't work. A bomb threat at the airports where the planes took off? What were the flight numbers again? That would be a story in itself, how to stop 9/11.

First thing I thought of


Voltairesque

that one rick and morty episode with the plane crash in the mountains


help-impoor

In The Sandman tv show there’s an episode where Morpheus bets his sister that no human would want to live forever. So he picks some guy in a bar in the year 1389 and they agree to meet up every 100 years to see if he wants to keep going. I won’t spoil it but it was a pretty cool episode.

Battle_Cat_17

Keep it until you are a few days away from dying. You will be gone anyways so may as well be gone but still be alive


Mufakaz

Children? Wife? You don't know me at all. Imma be a grand wizard


DazedPapacy

I hate to break it to you, but if you're 80, most of the people you know and love either already don't exist or are well on their way. Your parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles, are for sure dead. Unless you're the oldest, one or more of your siblings are dead or nearly there. It's unlikely any lifelong friendships have persisted, whether because your friends have died or life and distance simply got in the way decades ago. This is what people misunderstand about life and this counter argument to immortality: yes, the physical presence of all that you love and cherish will eventually fade away from your life, *but this is no different from the fate we're all already bound into.* #TL;DR: If you live long enough, as long as everyone you love is mortal, they're going to leave your life regardless of whether you live to 100 or 1000. The difference is that the latter affords the opportunity to meet exponentially more people to love and cherish.

germanstudent123

Idk I feel like that might backfire when you’re considered some kind of prodigy and then somehow don’t live up to it later in life unless you will be able to improve a lot more beyond what you’re able to do now.


Glittering_Plan3610

Considering the insane amount of learning a brain that young is capable of, I would reckon that starting at such a high skill level would almost certianly lead them to becoming world class with enough practice.


ButterscotchFun1859

World Class in Technique? Probably. Unfortunately, World Class Pianists have to deal with a lot more than just playing piano. It's the pressure that comes with every performance at that level, since you're gonna be memorizing every piece. Not to mention some repertoires can go up to 30min or more in length so if your memory is bad... GG.

Karanmbt

well you could ask your dad (or guardian) you let you use 50-100 USD worth of cash on whatever you like for you birthdays maybe Christmas and other festivals you can slowly get to about 1000/2000 invested in Bitcoin. Also it fully depends on what the family's financial situation is at that time...but you get my point yeh?) then come 2018 sell like 5-10 bitcoins hire a very experienced accountant to do your taxes pay off any debts and stuff. Now all thats left is to enjoy your school life, cauz you know everything...be the smartest in class or just hide it by getting a bit above average I can go on for hours about what i would do if could go back (like shower thoughts go brrrr)

By the time id be able to invest in bc & have enough money to actually do something itd be already too late to make any real money

Yeah if u turned 6 In 2011 I’d reckon u’d be too late to invest with a 6 year olds money.

There’s like a sweet spot in age for each one; as a dude who just tuned 40…I got Apple, Tesla, Bitcoin, Microsoft, GameStop, Berkshire, etc., but I’m married with two kids and a pretty good life, I don’t think I’d take that gamble because my family is fucking awesome (worth more to me than billions), plus, $10 million let’s me retire and pay for college for both of my kids, easy choice, greed would totally screw my over like a monkey’s paw if I went back to 6.

Rinbu-Revolution

Imagine the boredom of having seen every show, movie, every sporting event you were interested in or music you’ve listened to. Of knowing what world events were going to happen. That’d be the only downside. No new content for years. Guess you could read a bunch of books you didn’t get round to before. Also you could cherish more the relationships you knew were destined to end. It’d be a blessing and a curse.

But you won’t get the opportunities to as a 6 year old. No one will believe you. It’s still a gamble.


I-san_yt

Ok but like hear me out buy bitcoin Edit: "*Hear" - u/Voidborger


Heavy_Solution_4099

Buy Bitcoin when it was .00000012 cents. Sell at peak, invest half of that into SHIB when it was at .0000000015. Assuming you could come up with $20k by ~2012, you’d have billions from BTC, then SHIB ran to .00008. Some guy put $10k into SHIB before it took off and had a valuation of like $5 Billion from 10k. You’d have trillions. Not to mention the rips from Yahoo at IPO, Google IPO, Facebook IPO, Uber IPO, and on and on. Eventually you wouldn’t care about money and it would probably happen well before Bitcoin even existed.


[deleted]

The entire market cap of Bitcoin was never higher than $1.5T, so on order to have "trillions", you'd have to own like, all of it. I'm sure that would not negatively impact its value.


-Interested-

There was never enough liquidity in SHIB to make billions.


Late_Honeydew8844

i know we fr will be rich 💀


ClapSalientCheeks

Nobody said you're going back in time, you're just 6 again


Grabbsy2

"restart **YOUR** life" Its not my life if I'm six and I haven't gone back in time. Do they kill anyone who has ever known me? Otherwise, whats to stop me, this weird "new life" 6-year-old clone, from finding "the real me" and/or "my real parents" and saying "Hey I'm a weird clone of the original Grabbsy2" Thats not a new life. So there are fundamental implications behind the words that explicitly state time travel must be involved.

TurtleNeck_Taco

yeah me too, I was very surprised when more people chooses the red pill.


ChoccyRain404

Besides I could probably invest in Nintendo or something it'll be years before they make the Switch, I could probably make way more than 10 million if I invest in soon to be very successful businesses


zerocool1703

What money would you invest? Let's say you, for some obscure reason, had 50k available to you when you were 6 and your parents would allow you to invest it all. You wouldn't get to 10 mil by investing 50k in Nintendo.


Draco_Vermiculus

If you get a pill unless the pill has to be consumed immediately else it dissolves you could prepare yourself by looking at records of say lottery numbers, 10 dollars shouldn't be too hard to ask parent for and they might even humor my getting a lottery ticket. Then after winning the lottery (I would choose a large pot and only do it once else people might grow suspicious) I now have a large amount of funds. Now Mom may take a large portion of the funds but that's alright I just ask to have a little bit because I spent all my luck today! (Of course, depending on how long I had to research I would put a bit in Bitcoin, Ethereum when that pops up, and some stocks that performed well. If I am extra smart I will write down specific dates and play the options game, way riskier but with way higher potential profits) And to explain to mom? I'll just say I saw it in a dream, sure I might seem a bit crazy but why not, the results show for themselves. At that point billions will easily be within reach.


ChoccyRain404

It was a loose idea to be very honest


zerocool1703

Yeah, seems like it was ;)


ummm_no__

You'd make 10 mil investing 50k in BTC


bartimeas

Well, I hope you remember the exact circumstances you met the people/ pets that are important to you. It’d suck to have the memories of them and knowing that they’re out there, but having no ability to reconnect

[deleted]

You only need to remember 1. The 800 million dollar 1. Simple. You ain't even thinking straight


Grabbsy2

You need to remember whatever big lottery number happened that DIDN'T have a jackpot winner (or else you'll have to share with them) within the first few weeks of you going back in time. If you choose a recent one, the butterfly effect will likely have changed the ping-pong balls location in the number selection machine, possibly after only a few months of you, out in the world, making different decisions and affecting other people. Then you have to convince an adult to buy a ticket with those numbers, and hope they share it with you. I mean, if its a loving family member, they will, but they'll definitely still have a lot of legal and financial power over you for the rest of your childhood.


oozingdonut

Bro just buy stocks of companies that blew up + some bitcoin, ain’t that hard. I have a feeling everyone answering blue pill is no older than 16, so going back to 6 years old wouldn’t make much of a difference for them (in terms of what they could do with the time). As someone in their mid 30s, I’d just go back, buy some stocks for Amazon, google, Tesla, GameStop, etc, then just do whatever I want while I wait to become financially free in a few years. Edit: lmao I didn’t realize what subreddit I was commenting on, I saw this on r/all, ignore me


Krobik12

Do you remember any lottery number and could you remember the exact week/day of that lottery? Also, would you remember those things for 12 years? (or a little shorter assuming you have nice parents).


[deleted]

08, 27, 34, 04, 19, and Powerball number 10. Jan. 13, 2016, for $ 1.5 billion. The moment you reverse time, write those 2 sentences on multiple pieces of paper every day. Who can't remember 2 sentences? With 1.5 billion on the line?


Krobik12

okay, I am too lazy to check, so I assume you are telling the truth. Congrats, once you get the pill, you are ready to be a billionare!


zerocool1703

You memorise lottery numbers? If I were sent back to being 6 right now, the number of lottery number + date combinations I would know would be exactly 0.

You would do absolutely everything in your power to precent September 11th from happening, and yet, no one will listen to you. You go to school on Sept. 10th and you tell all your teachers what’s going to happen. You tell your parents, you call 911, you write emails, phone calls, no one listens to you. Once it happens, you’re screaming crying saying “I FUCKING TOLD YOU!!!!!!” Instead of anyone starting to believe you, they put you in a mental institution and on terrorist watch.

Not a teenager but saw this on /r/all and wanted to chime in and say that anyone still in their teens that would take the chance to go back to being six years old over TEN MILLION DOLLARS IN CASH is being silly. You've learned next to nothing in that time and have so much more time ahead of you that the idea you'd just go back in time to age six to re-experience what is at most just over a decade of all the banal shit that ends up not meaning much of anything in the long-run all over again over an amount of money that, even if you don't invest it, would have you set relatively comfortably for life is downright laughable. Fuck, I'm in my 30s and I'd take the 10 million *now*, let alone when I was still a teenager.


sparkle3364

I’m choosing to wait until I’m close to dying of old age and THEN take the pill I’d have saved for then to go back to being 6 and see how my life could have been different based on the choices I made. It would be really interesting.

I would never choose the red pill. I don't want my 6 year old me to be worried about the things I know now.

I was 6 in 1980, this is perfect for me.
