If you choose 1 you beat the likes of Jesus, Bhudda, Ghandi etc and have absolute infuence on mankind but you are absolutely broke and your influence cannot and does not compensate you in any way. You will struggle to eat and may even die from starvation.

If you choose 2 you are filthy rich but will never be known by anyone in any way. Even women on dating sites will ignore you even if you claim to be rich. You cannot have any amount of fame not even infamy. It will be to the world as if you never existed.

Being rich enough to not worry about money and also being completely unknown is my ideal state. Living in a solar powered cabin in the woods with a decent internet connection and drone food deliveries would be the dream.

Unknown and rich by far.

If I could be ballin' and have the added benefit of being able to go out in public without people recognizing me, my life would literally be perfect.

That's most people though. Having an influence on the world is a choice one makes. You won't neccesarily reach as many people as you'd want but you can definitely enact change. If everyone helped in even small ways, there would be significant improvement. Besides there's no guarantee your influence would be a good one. If everyone thought the same way, that leaves less room for new ideas. So in a way, taking the money while having no influence is the more selfless option. Especially since you could donate to charity, it's simply that no one would acknowledge the contribution. And what is more selfless than that.

To quote bone thugs

"Do it for the love of money
Fuck the fame."

Only reason I'd have even the slightest desire to be famous is if it came with absurd wealth. And id go back to being non famous asap once I got the money.

It's a drone. You tell it where to go to, not who to go to.

Don't need a name to have an address, or just a GPS coordinate.

Lots of people go crazy from sudden windfalls exactly BECAUSE of the fact that suddenly everyone and their damn dog are your 'family' all of a sudden and need your financial assistance.

I'll take the money. I'm perfectly happy living an anonymous life. Fame sounds and looks like such a double edged sword. Always having to be on guard about what you say and do for fear of it becoming a TMZ story? I'd have be medicated to keep anxiety under control.

Having that kind of influence would be a massive responsibility. Who is certain that their effect would turn out to be a positive one? It's going to get a bit more complicated than 'well, I'll just tell people not to be nazis and paedos'.

I mean, Jesus basically told people to be nice to each other, but plenty have killed or oppressed while invoking Jesus. Your legacy may end up being the foundation of a pernicious cult/religion which causes widespread damage.

Maybe by living a life of isolated super luxury you will end up doing less harm.

The starving-to-death clause is a bit too much. This is basically a 'being dead vs being rich' poll xd

Yeah but at least you get to be influential and remembered after your death. Just a shame that doesnt mean shit. Objectively speaking it doesnt matter (to me or anyone else no matter what they say) what happens after a person dies because at that point they have zero ability to contextualise.

Since theyve like, stopped existing.
