I voted for the blue pill. Knowledge, to me, is more important than monetary wealth.

I'm with @sunrise123 , I get to be five years younger and rich, hurrah for the red pill! At the age of ten I was full of boyish hopes and beliefs, I'd be robbed of those naive but happy beliefs if you inserted a middle aged brain into me then. Besides, being prematurely wise and mature is no guarantee of me making $50M, the choice is an easy one.
Could I wait a couple of years to choose?

I'd love to take the blue pill. Hell, all I know now, I could coast through public school and ride a wave of scholarships into fully paid college, still end up with $50 mill by 45 (well, maybe not quiet that much), and will have lived a much better life.

Oh now hold on, that makes sense though I don't have a complete knowledge of the stock market. Can I take all the horse racing results from 49.5 years ago with me? If so, hurrah for the blue pill! The blue pill forever!Easy, send me back to age 10 with complete knowledge of what s going to happen in th stock market over the next 48 years.
50 million? Peanuts.
I picked the red pill. No matter how good the advice is you just cannot take it unless and until you are ready to listen and to learn. If you become 10 years old, you will probably make the same or equivalent mistakes the second time around.
If you take the blue pill you can always take the red pill on the 2nd time around, but you won't. You'll probably choose the blue pill again.
I have one for you, Sunstone. Lets say a miracle occurs a meteor crashes next to the highway. You get out of your car and find an alien nano-construction unit which you return to its owner. The owner is greatful and offers to miraculously grant you one of two dancing skills. You may either learn break dancing or tap dancing. What will you choose?
Which pill would you take? Why? How long did it take you to decide?
Blue, blue, blue!
Oh, to understand what I do now, and be able to apply it! Even if I didn't get rich (though it seems unlikely given the premise) the chance to avoid so many mistakes and to learn so much -- that's as exciting to me as anything I've ever conceived.

A choice between break dancing or tap dancing? Is voluntarily confinement to an insane asylum an option?

Now you are making this thread seem almost pointless Brickster, if I get to take the blue pill every time I reach 45 years of age I'm immortal! It's a no brainer!

I choose the blue pill, so when I'm 10 I'd already know about Satan and how to achieve my purpose and so I could start power meditation much sooner.
Surely you don't want to learn both tap dancing and break dancing? Its just not done.

I would know to stay out of Church. I would know to not hate gays or myself. I'd also be ahead socially, which could put me on par with others before I reached 30 again as I wouldn't be making those same social mistakes again.
