    Blue pill. Restarting with all my knowledge, I might end up not meeting my soulmate and not having my kid, because of randomness. I can’t have that.

      My exact thoughts. Give me this choice at 19 or 20, sure I’ll restart. Now though, the money would just be nice to provide security to the most valuable thing - my girls.

        Any point in time before my body broke down and a chance to not get through the troubles I had in my twenties? The ability to build neuronal structures like a child instead of learning anew profession in my thirties? Hell, I’m not gonna say no to that.

      Exactly, if you make changes to things you wish you’d done differently, you could drastically alter your life enough to where you’d be in unknown territory rather quickly.

      Sure you’d still have the “dump savings into Bitcoin, sell in September 2020” thing that would make you richer than the blue pill ever could, but the mistakes we make are the biggest reason to relive the past and once you alter those you’d quicky change the course of your life.
