Which will you choose?
Hello readers, how are you doing, mine wasn't bad at all, I went and came back, I'm not at home now, and it's an article for another day.
Yesterday while I was reading and engaging in articles, a picture was sent to a telegram group and it a the question being asked, it's a very tricky question and I know that a lot of people disagreed with my choice, but one dm me and told me that.
The question goes like this
If you are given two pills, a red and a blue, the red pill will take you back to 10 years old with all the knowledge you have now fully intact, while the blue pill will take you 45 years old with $50 million chilling in your account, which will you choose?
I choose the blue pill and one of my contacts message me that what I choose was wrong, that is better to go back in time with all the knowledge I know now and I can start something that will bring me a lot of money before anyone would even start it, what he said was illegal and we all already know, which is a fraudster.
I bet he never saw what was coming, lol. Maybe he thought that I just choose the blue pill without thinking it twice, we chatted for hours, he was trying to make me see from his perspective that at that age he can be a genius and become popular and rich, he further said that as he's a music artist now, his dream is to be rich and famous at a young age, he then said that a 45 years old man won't be able to become a big music star and attract ladies, he made mentions of some young artistes in the industry that girls love.
He was a point though, These are some conversations between us.
He said
True sha..bt for me I finna choose the red tho..
Cause I have a lot of plans
At 45
I ll be too late to achieve my major goal in life.. 🙂
My reply
That's true and not true.
It depends though, at 45 you can still achieve a lot you know, the owner of KFC didn't become a millionaire at a young age, some people became a millionaire in their 40s and they are still fresh like 20s today. While some become a millionaire at an early age and they misused. Sometimes it's not about the age you became a millionaire but how you handle it and grow into a billionaire.
When I say millionaire, I nor mean in naira though 😂😂 na dollars I mean.
He said

My reply
Like I said. It's all about you handling it well. Shey u remember that kid that sang “zamina mina” the boy made it big at an early age, but where eh dey now?
Jay z that started at 26 is the most the respected rapper now. Though so many laughs ah say he started late.
He said
Bro even omah lay no stRt early.. Tems started at 26 abi 27😂
45 is too much
My reply
These people still have a long way to go, they are not even 10 years on stage yet.
He said
🙂imagine starting at 45
Bro.. E no goes well
And u sef know
My reply
Yeah. But one thing I can tell u is that when you get there, the past years would be history, a thing of the past.
You dey shop online?
I want to explain something in a way for u to understand real quick.
His reaction was like
I explained it to him
Okay, but u have waited for something to arrive before and you will be anxious for it to just arrive, the time will look like you are wasting it that you should be doing something to fast the arrival of what you are waiting for.
Then when the thing finally arrives, you won't think about the time you felt you wasted, cause you will be busy enjoying it, when the time you felt you waste won't matter anymore.
He said he understood it and I further explain to him that “sometimes the duration of the equation doesn't matter, all that matters is the result. Even if it takes years to solve”
That's all we ended the conversation, it wasn't an argument though, it was just a conversion on why I choose what I choose. In life is good to have a reason for the decision we take in case we are asked why, some people are not asking to mock you, they also want to know if your reason will be able to convince them to follow your choice.
Everyone have their own preferences. Your friend is not wrong though , you are also right. To some people,money is the most important thing while to others, money is one of the most important things. Lol
