Option 1: You become 10 years old again, remembering everything you know now

Option 2: You skip ahead to 45 years old, and have $50 million in your bank account

DISCUSS!

I voted too quick, am I traveling back in time to when I was 10 or am I 10 in the year 2017?

traveling back in time

Easiest decision the GLBers ever made

Yea this is the easiest decision ever for anyone to be honest. Unless you're over 45/really close to it then it's probably the 50 million. At least for me I'd rather travel back in time because it'd be very easy to exploit for infinite money (more than 50 million easily), plus time is so much more valuable than money.

I went for the guaranteed 50 mil.

I also chose 50 million, surprised how many people want to be put back into their 10 year old body. I would gladly skip 19 years of my life for 50 million. Even more so if it was instant. I could have a much better life from 45-? with 50 million than I would from 25-? without money. Hell I might even consider taking such an offer for ONE million.

The vote is 1-2 so far

Yeah, I definitely don't want to be 10 again and I feel like people are prone to repeat their mistakes, anyway. I know this is a "young" forum for the most part but you're all going to be 45 someday (God willing) and you won't feel that is as old as you think it sounds right now.

One thing to take note of is the second you do ONE thing to change your future, which you'll be doing immediately because there's no way you can mimick your old self perfectly with no changes, you create a new timeline you might not be able to predict. So you just become a slightly smarter kid than other kids, big whoop.

Think of every person you ever dated also. Even the one night stands. The best ones specifically. Highly unlikely you'll meet them again especially if you met them on a dating app. Can you remember the day, the swipe, the first message you sent? How the first date went beat by beat to recreate it all? You say you'd fix past relationship mistakes but you'd only make it so you never met the person to begin with which is worse, because you won't be able to recreate all the circumstances that led to meeting them.

45 is the new 29.

Yes, also I don't change who my kids are if I go back to 45 but if I go back to 10 I might.

You definitely will. There's only a one in ten trillion chance that they were born to begin with. The specific kids you know I mean. You'd have completely different kids.

Well what happens in those years until you're 45, are you on autopilot like in click or something?

These options are about equal for me but I fucking hated middle school and going back means being a part of my awful school district during some less than ideal times so i think i'd just take the money.
