Red pill says restart at 6, not go back in time to when you where 6. I assume you will be 6 in the current time and have no future knowledge to convert into cash.

Blue pill: I would die of boredom if I had to go back to school for more than a couple of days.

Red pill.

I'd apply myself in high school, force myself to be sociable as a child, graduate with my bachelor's degree 4-6 years earlier with a better GPA, and get work experience and savings well before the COVID-19 pandemic. (I would try to stop it, but if someone told me that they had exact knowledge of the future, I wouldn't believe them, and frankly I would be worried if people believed me without further evidence.)

I don't need or want $10 million.

Are the pills binary? Because I wouldn't want to rewind to far before either shacking up with, or maybe meeting, my girl. And all the fun things I would wish upon every iteration of myself that I'm doing now are things I'd started with in adulthood.
I'd only really be interested in taking about a third of a red pill, since that'd probably take me back to after I started most of these fun things.

If I'd be required to take whole pills, I'd take the blue one.
