Red pill.

While I could retire right now with the blue pill, I wouldn't be happy.

Red pill means I could spend more time and cultivate a better relationships with the people who actually matter to me. I'd spend a lot more time with my great grandparents.

I could also focus on being true to who I am and not being who I thought others wanted. Basically be who I was in college... But now at 6.

Of course, I could make all the right investments to make a lot of money.

I wouldn't want to just go into the same career. While I might for a while, honestly I'd have the knowledge and money to take a run at a political career.

I hadn't thought of that, but it's genius.
