Time for red pill and blue pill question

Hello everyone, how are you all today? I was able to fully clear my notification today for the first time in so many weeks and that was because I was at home throughout today, so I had a lot of time to interact here on read.cash without distractions.

I am taking a break from school, I will soon travel back home to my parents and I need to start preparing my things. I will be a bit busy tomorrow coz I need to do laundry, luckily there's harmattan now so the clothes will be dried quickly.

But enough of that, let's go straight to the topic for today. Some days back, I saw an article by olasquare where he asked a question; "Would You Take 10 Million Naira ($18,000) Now or Go Back In Time To When You Were Younger But With Your Experience Intact?" (Check it out here)

First of all, the money is even out of the equation because it's small when compared to the other option, don't worry when I am done with my explanation, you will understand why I said the money is small.

So obviously, this means I am going with the other option; go back in time to when I was younger with my experience intact. By younger, I am guessing it means going back to at least 10 years ago and I will still have my memories intact.

Sure, it means I will probably be in high school again but it's a small price to pay for the success I will achieve in a short while. And besides, some of my best memories happened in high school, so I guess it's a win-win situation.

The first thing I am going to do when I go back in time is to accumulate a lot of Bitcoin 😃. We all know that Bitcoin was very cheap around 2010 and 2015, I actually had an opportunity of getting some back then but I didn't grab it, and that's because I didn't understand it and saw it as a waste of time.

In addition to buying Bitcoin, I will also buy BCH as soon as it forks from Bitcoin (thanks to my memories still intact, I know exactly when it will happen 😉). I will also buy a bunch of other coins I know are doing well right now, then I will just leave them and watch the magic happen.

The next thing I am going to do is to start learning programming as soon as possible. I love programming a lot and I started learning it late last year, but right now I have paused it because it's very difficult combining it with university life (it's like taking two major courses at the same time).

So going back in time will allow me to fully focus on programming, coz back then I use all my free time to play games and watch movies. Starting programming at that young age would have made me be a master at it by now and I will be someone with over 10 years of experience in it! Quite Impressive, no?

Going back in time will mean I will have knowledge of techs that haven't been released yet, I will be like a god in the tech industry 😁 Even if I don't directly create the techs, I will be dishing out ideas for new techs that haven't been released yet.

I will probably end up creating read.cash and hijacking the project from Simon, but I won't do that because I met end up not meeting most of the wonderful people we have here. What I will rather do is wait for Simon to create read.cash and then I will sign up immediately, by now I would have had "user for one year" attached to my profile just like Jane and bloghound.

Closing thoughts

I don't really have a lot of things I regret not doing in the past except for cryptocurrency and programming but I believe everything happens for a reason and changing the past may have dire consequences on the future.

Who knows, maybe I wouldn't be alive right now if I had done things differently back then. I believe there's always going to be something we want to change in our past if we can go back to the past, so it's probably best to just leave things as they were and move on.

But seriously, if I did go back in time with my memories and experiences intact, I would be filthy rich right now! That other option of $18,000 would be looking so small compared to the money I would have made from cryptocurrency, and that's why I said from the start that the $18,000 is out of the equation because it's too small 😉

So what about you, which of the pill will you take? Do let me know in the comment section or better still, you can create an article just like this to explain your choice.

Thanks for reading 💖💖💖
