A) You can be powerful, have every woman want you, and accomplish everything you want to accomplish, but you will be dead by 45; orWhich would you pick?B) You will live to 90, but you will fail in your career, be disdained by your peers, and no woman will be interested in you.
I would pick A.
Your assumption that there are only two choices is incorrect, and therefore living your life by picking from only those two is irrational and a waste of time.
Allow me to counter your offer:
If you could be happy the rest of your life, knowing that you would have to kill other people to have it that way
OR, you would not kill other people and would be stuck with some unhappiness throughout your life,
WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE?
