Red. No amount of fixing mistakes will ever repair my lifelong depression.
Blue, because I’ll might come to this again and take the red door on the second time around.
Blue door for sure. I can invest early in a ton of stuff that would get me way above 10 mil. And in this economy, not investing was a mistake.
Blue door is essentially erasing your own existence. Why do people even view it as an option? The me that made mistakes created the me today. If I erase those mistakes I wouldn’t exist. Just some other guy with an easy life.
Because you have a different view of time and space. You could go back in time and stay the same,it’s just a different timeline, where you see a younger version of yourself. But changing anything in his life don’t affect yours, only his. There can’t be paradox in this model.
True, true. One of the mistakes however is not buying tech stocks in their infancy, so you’d wind up with way more than 10m.
I’ve forgotten again that the average age on here skews 30+. All the big tech stocks were cheap when I was literally an infant, so I really misunderstood what you said.
It’s cool. Some of us in that category were just broke due to the Recession.
The blue door implies that your current existence is the one changing your past, i.e. you retain the knowledge of your current existence. The ‘you’ that made those mistakes therefore still exists, as you would remember the mistakes you’ve made in order to correct them. The mistakes still happened, your timeline still exists/existed, you’re just now in an alternate timeline where your brain was surgically implanted into your younger self.
Bingo. We are the sum of our experiences mistakes and all. I have an ex i I still long to be together with to the point of a physical ache. But I still wouldn’t take the blue door.
Exactly! I can’t count how many times I’ve messed up, but without them I wouldn’t be who I am today. Hence why I pick the red door, not for the money, but so that the experiences that shaped me still mean something.
Red door, I’m not very unhappy with my previous choices
Why worry about the past when you can have a brighter future with an extra 10 million cash?
I’m fine with most of my mistakes so I’m going through the red door.
Red door fo shiz. Those “mistakes” led directly to the pretty fuckin cool life I have now.
I’ve made many mistakes in life, still I like the person I’ve become. And I’m still absolutely in love with my husband. For 23 years now - wouldn’t trade that for a new life.
So red it is!
I’m sure I’ve made plenty of mistakes, but I’m happy enough with where my life is now. Red door it is.
Blue door without question. Even if there was a stipulation that I couldn’t invest in stocks or bitcoin or do anything else that would make me rich.
I fantasise about going back and doing it all again, not making huge changes, but little ones, living my life with the knowledge and security I have now, so I would be able to enjoy my childhood instead of stressing about the future, I could be kinder to people around me and help them when they were struggling. I could tell the people I loved that I loved them instead of keeping those feeling held back due to insecurity. I could spend more time with my pets when I was “too busy” before. I could start the hobbies and sports I ended up loving as a child, and actually have the chance to be competitive at them.
Mistakes such as guessing the wrong lottery numbers all those times.
Mining Bitcoin immediately and knowing exactly when to get cash out.
You are a result of your personal experiences. Going back and changing would make you an entirely different person.
Without the mistskes
With new mistakes.
Haven’t really made many mistakes in my life, so… red door!
Fuck it, I’ll just stay outside and gripe.
