Time.
Have you seen the movie "In Time" about this very thing? Rich people live forever and wealth is accumulated as the duration you can live for. It's a cool concept and a pretty good movie.
Yes! Low key underrated movie
Is it anything like Logan's run?
Cyberpunk dystopia. They share that.
Sound like a good idea, but turning immortality pay to win could, in the worst case, make it, so that only the rich can afford it. And thereby only creating an even greater constantly increasing devide between the population.
A once off time rewind by 28 years.
Apart from world peace (of course), a change gender voucher. Would probably cost 300 gems or something.
I second the change gender voucher. But a character makeover ticket would be even better.
A house by the lake would be nice. Perhaps an island as well.
I would definitely go for a recursive island. It’s an island with a lake, that has an island.
Turns out there’s a ton of them in Finland.
There I would build my house: by a private lake, with a summer house on the private island on the private lake.
A home
Same
Same
Inhumanity, by way of a new body. The human body is genuinely just awful and I'd love to have something better.
I think I'd quite like to be a free-floating cloud of quantum dots.
A house in the woods.
Speaking and reading all languages.
Mastering all instruments.
Learning the Cha-cha
All the birth control companies.
And then give it away for free.
The vacant lot west of my house.
Proficiency in Ancient Greek, Avestan, Hittite, Old Church Slavonic, Sanskrit, and Tocharian A.
Yes, this can be developed with enough time and effort, but I'm no elf to live a millennium and resources for those languages are awful to find.
Wouldn’t Tocharian B be better?
With A you could read mostly Buddhist scriptures that already exist in other languages, but with B you could read more historically-relevant secular works.
Frankly I'd be a happy camper with either. My focus isn't too much on what those languages were used for, but on Proto-Indo-European reconstruction; having more points of reference is always useful.
(That said you're right that Toch. B would be better - it seems to be more conservative. I thought that it was the opposite.)
Sodalicious fruit snacks.
I'd buy more money, obviously.
Cryptocurrency scammers have entered the chat.
I guess I only need to get rid of my student debt, buy a house, a car that doesn't break down, then I'll buy some friends, I'll buy a nice paying job with a career in my field of expertise and I'll grab some charisma and friend making skills at the checkout
I'd buy all my time and my kids', so I could spend their entire childhood with them.
Happiness
A nice piece of land and design my own house to build there
Freedom from the voluntary prison that my memories keep me in. That or a best friend or something. Either of which kinda cancel themselves out since they had to be purchased :/
All the politicians, judges, etc. in the entire world
Then maybe some reforms could get done and the world can be better and less corruptable >.>
the "means of production" -- according to a dragon in a web comic i read.
My debt
Keeping living space clean at all times
This is exactly what im struggling with.
I'd buy houskeeping services for the next few decades. A person or company who tidies and cleans my space, does the laundry, the grocery shopping and cooks healthy non processed meals.
Congress and the Supreme Court so I could once and for all make it so I’m the last one who ever does.
Realistically, a house. However what I really want is to be able to speak every language. There is so much knowledge out there that I cant know without imperfect translation and even then it is still imperfect.
Healthcare
I should buy a boat
A boat's a boat, but a mystery box could be anything! It could even be a boat! I'll take the box.
I'd buy the assets of the wealthy and redistribute it to the poor.
All the politicians in my country.
One million dollars.
Futanari maid service
A private island
And only a trusted few would be allowed on it.
I've seen this one before...
Happiness.
I would buy a country and make it a better world than the rest of the world currently is.
