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.
