Blue, would be hard to merry my x again, so I still have my son.

Blue. Knowing what I know would make me a fucked up 6 year old. I wouldn't be able to make friends, I would creep people out or even end up in a mental institution. 10 million wold fix all my current problems. And there wold be a lot left for hookers and coke.

I take both pills. Try and stop me, motherfucker.

I'd grab both pills and quickly swallow them just to see what would happen. I might end up a 12yo with $5million. I'd be so obnoxious

Blue pill. I never want to relive my childhood trauma again 🤑

Red pill, buy bitcoin, easy win

Are we talking $10 M pre or post tax?

Post tax, $10M 100%. Not having to work and retiring immediately would be amazing.

I do like the recursive option of the red pill. Do a few loops and find the optimal path.

Six year old, easy choice - do something mildly special for a kid that age and get on TV then when they ask you a question the answer is 'well it was a dream i had, there was a pale horse riding towards us snd the horses name was Tod, it was going to run over everyone but an angel told me to call out to the faithful and save them....'

Kid can't even read and from an atheist family then starts quoting bible and making up complex visions and messages no child could ever create - plus very clear predictions that come perfectly true, knowledge of science before it's discovered... Admit it, you'd get sucked into my cult.

Could have a huge portion of the world believing, teach them the need for luxury gay space communism then when we're all living in utopia be like 'oh btw it was just a time travel prank lol'

Pro gamee move: Start with red pill, take blue pill when you get back to the point in time where the choice is offered

Blue pill. I'd miss my wife and kids, and even if I were transported back in time, I doubt I'd do all the required steps to get to them again.

I bet there’s a distinct age group for each one. Older, established, family, doing ok? Take the 10 mil. Don’t want to give up your family and all that. Might be pretty hard for people to give up. 10 mil would be an easy, instant retirement. You can enjoy your remaining years.

Sure, there are going to be some pretty unhappy outliers for whatever reasons, unable to reach a stable relationship, multiple failed relationships, poor financial situation, etc. that would hit the reset button.

Younger folks? Maybe yeah…hit that reboot. Start off with a lot of great knowledge, big nest egg to get a huge leg up on everything, you’ll retire at 40. Many more millions or even a billion with all the knowledge you have. Life would have a good shot at being great.

I'm a useless idiot now and there's not much someone like me can do with that power. Gimmie the 10 mil and fuck off.

Red. Maybe I can stop my mom from being terrible. Also Bitcoin. Also holo first edition Charizard! Also I wanna be in the Fallador massacre on RuneScape! Also I'll get Internet famous!

It's kind of curse to live knowing what's going to happen to our dear ones, but on the other way I could spend some extra time who is not with me now.

Earning $10mil will not be my motive if I am going to live this life again..

Red pill, and I'll have more than 10 million by the time I'm an adult

Taking the red pill operates under the assumption that you’ll actually survive to this point in your life again. Maybe you were one second away from dying in a car accident at several points, and taking that red pill will lead to a series of events that causes your death.

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.

I could transition before puperty

Blue. If I take the red pill, I'll end up in a mental hospital.

Since it's one or the other, we can assume the objective value of the red pill is $10mil. So, you take the blue pill and use that $10mil to make another $10mil and then you buy the red pill and save it until you're about to die in a boss battle.

My entire house:

"BLUE PILL PLS!"

I thought red at first, and if it were only slightly different parameters I'd still choose it, but 6? That's too far back to be trapped in a child's body and environment. At least going back to a more plausible age for a grown up's mindset like teenage years would be a bit easier to deal with and to lay low, it'd be strange how much more mature and less reckless and slightly boring of a teenager you had suddenly become, but at least it wouldn't be like international news. At 6, life is going to drastically changed by your seemingly impossible linguistic skills alone, child development experts would want to study you, you'd now be a prodigy, not necessarily a bad thing but unless that specifically was the path you'd always wanted but never achieved, you'd now be pretty well set down that road and all that comes with it. The relationship with your parents would be so different and they'd be robbed of your childhood and suddenly have this adult they'd never met before to deal with after barely getting any time to get to know their own child. It'd be so frustrating too, no one would let you drive and you couldn't drink, or fuck. You'd hopefully be able to get yourself some more autonomy than your average 6 year old if you revealed all your cards right away because it'd become immediately clear that fisher price toys and curfews and first grade weren't appropriate for you, but even so your adulthood, already well underway by this point would be drastically curtailed for something going on a decade. Maybe you'd decide to play like in a movie and adopt secrecy so your parents and peers don't know how smart you are, but that'd frankly be way worse and so exhausting and lonely and alienating.

If this was, maybe start again at 14, or better yet 16, I'd take that red pill no problem. It's most of the benefits of the blank slate try again with benefit of hindsight premise, but skipping over the parts that would be simply intolerable for an adult. At 16 you're a 'young adult' getting to relive some of the things you miss about being a child but with many of the benefits of being an adult and biologically you're pretty much over the worst of it, if you really hate the social restrictions imposed upon you by being not technically an 'adult' you're only 2 years away from fixing that, not over a decade, and when you get there you'll be in way better control of the trajectory of adulthood. Most of the really decisive things about adulthood that trace back to childhood happen around this time as well so it's where you'd get the most bang for your buck. You can take a very meandering path up until that point and still change direction but this is where decisions start to become more binding and long lasting so it's really the point where most people, if you asked them, would probably begin making tweaks if they could. I reckon the details about one's current life that most people want changed wouldn't have any meaningful correlation to things they did when they were 6, it'd be things like their career, or relationships they've had or wish they'd had, it'd be academic ability or a better body not ravaged by years bad lifestyle choices pretty much all of that is something you could very impactfully change at 16 without the need to learn to read all over again.

Easily red if restart means go back to the year when I was six. If be 6 years old now, fuck no.

Red is too much effort. Blue

Blue pill. I have an amazing wife and kids and there's no way I'd risk that

Let's go relive that childhood trauma! It sure would be interesting trying to raise my parents into functional adults at that age. I wonder if they'd give me an exorcism?

Nah, I don't have to wonder.

Blue pill, redoing school and all for years before getting any further in your life would be way too boring

Blue pill.

That's a lot I could do with red pill, I would easily be able to become a millionaire, but I am pretty happy in my current life and that would be enough to satisfy all my dreams.
