$300,000 or never have to sleep again?


If you pick money it'll go straight into your bank account. Everything is legit.

If you pick the no sleep power. You won't ever have to sleep again but you can still sleep to pass time or act like a normal person. You just close your eyes and count 1-20 backwards to activate it. You will still be woken up by alarm, loud noise etc. Otherwise you automatically wake up after 7 hours exactly.

As long as you are not physically exerting all the way through the hours. You recover your strength in 6 hours. So after a long day of manual labour, you will still need to sit down on the couch and take a break but you won't need to sleep.

You never get mentally tired so you can marathon office/desk work or gaming sessions infinitely.

Because you don't need sleep, it's equal to a normal person of having perfect undisturbed sleep every night. So this benefits your health also.

If you pick the sleep option. Please also let us know how much money it would take to make you take that option.

Are you sure? Because the minimum amount would probably be like 2 million british pounds. It would let me buy maybe 5 houses, rent them out and just not have to work again in my life with money left over.

Im sure the smart people of CE on here can do a lot more with 300k.

I can't help but feel like I wouldn't actually do anything productive in those quiet times at night..so I'm leaning towards the money.

No sleep.

Would be perfect. I could be more productive during the day and game or watch TV/movies at night.

Or even take one of those jobs that pay more for night shifts and then have the entire day free. Working from midnight to 8am would be perfect.

Id go for the no sleeping and only take money if it was enough for an early retirement (so like 1 million at minimum)

Because not having to work > not having to sleep

So even if you want to sleep for the routine or to keep from over-thinking, you can conk yourself out at will and wake up with any alarm? I think this is all way more valuable than 300k.

Not needing sleep, while gaining the benefits of a PERFECT night of sleep, and being able to sleep on command if I want to? Then on top of that, you NEVER get mentally fatigued?

I will easily make up for that 300k with all the time gained, and then some. Yes, it will take work, but you are operating with zero mental fatigue and the benefits of a perfect night of sleep at all times.

The health gains alone probably make up for that lost 300k if you consider how much a lifetime of doctor and other health visits cost in the USA.

This is all SO valuable, I would probably pay $300k for it.

I would need something crazy like $10 million to take the money. At least then I would never have to work again for sure.

The "no sleep" is just way too attractive.

It's basically a "you never get (mentally) tired (with the exception of hard physical work)" and "you always have perfect sleep whenever you want", with the bonus of having extra time if you DON'T want to sleep right now.

Getting the benefits of perfect sleep 24/7, without even having to sleep is going to be even better if you become sick or do some exhausting work.

Hell, even the "you can fall asleep whenever you want within 20 seconds" is pretty nice in such situations.

Definitely no sleep, even though it is enjoyable. You can get so much more done, or enjoy other things.

As for the money, I probably would have chosen it if it was higher. 30 mill would have done it.

Ikr. I typed this up while I was taking a dump. I then later realised that you also have the ability to time skip. Like if you are waiting for a flight or just waiting for your wife and you know its going to take 2 hours. You just set the alarm on your phone and sleep on command.

Really surprised money is still winning the poll. Because not long after I made it, I thought I made the money too low for it to be a decent poll.

I am surprised too! Its a decent chunk of change though, and life changing for some people if they are currently struggling.

Plus I guess people really love sleeping

What can I do with $300k? Buy a house, eat out more, and go on vacation more? The superpower sounds more interesting and has more possibilities.

I'd probably be willing to spend most of the money I have now for the sleeping superpower. It also gets rid of any sleep-related tiredness problems.

No sleep easy. I can sleep if I want to or I get another third of my life to exist doing what I want to.

I'm on a fixed income right now but sleeping, as nice is it is, has been a constant problem my entire life. Never needing it again changes the entire fabric of my existence. Literally hundreds of extra hours a year.

Seems like a bit of an overreaction. Having to never work again frees up just as much time as it would if you never had to sleep.

Like I guess I'd do it for maybe 20-30 million dollars.

I'd take the money but accidentally clicked the no sleep option.

I really like sleeping, sleeping is nice. Sure I could really use that time but I could do more at my age with that money.

If I was a teen or still in my 20's the no sleep power would have a lot more long term value.

No sleep

If you average 6 hours of sleep per night, then you are gaining 91 days of time spent awake per year. The amount of extra stuff I could get done would be fantastic, even if it were just recreational stuff.

Ive probably spent thousands trying to deal with insomnia so for that to no longer be an issue is well worth the 300k loss

maybe at like 1 mill so I could retire from a job with a set schedule or just do free lance work to pay the bills then Id take the money
