I assume if any of the items goes out of order, i get a replacement? Also, i wish there was a better variety of musical instruments. I'd rather have a piano (or a keyboard) or a flute.

But anyway, using accumulated total:

books: 50
geenhouse: 55
guitar: 59

This is pretty easy. Points given is too large. Don't take 50k because you're getting 10 mil(why day trade for peanuts? No wonder people here suck at investing). Don't talk to Buffett because you have books, and you can't speak on Buffett's level(plus as others said, what is he going to tell you that you couldn't have gotten out of his annual shareholder letters/books?)

The only questionable thing is getting out early, but if you're given a choice between being trapped with far less stuff for a shorter period of time(and only 3 years), and a longer period of time with far more amenities... why would you choose the former?

Actually I do, but I think I have enough to do (and 4chan fap material) to make it through 10 years.

I think personally it's most important to look at the long term value of a lot of the options.

Sure you could turn that 50k into 50 million... But at the same time you could lose it. That 13 points could be better spent on Youtube (constant, unique entertainment across the board), or 4chan (Socializing with another human being on demand)

You aren't required to follow all of Buffett's advise, but there are just a FEW indications that he knows what he is talking about when it comes to making money. You could also bounce your ideas off him.
I'm thinking that a few weeks following him around and being able to ask him questions is far more valuable than an MBA from one of the best schools.

>>175212
Do you really think the guy is going to dedicate at least 500hrs of his next 10years giving you financial advice? He could be dying of cancer, suffer a stroke, or some other health condition becoming senile 1week in and therefore useless. He could just hang up on you for an hour every week also, he might not be rude in real life but just because you get to have a direct phone line with him doesn't mean he has to tell you anything you want to know or listen to you at all.

Really wanted the books or the workshop, but I'd rather have a comfy cozy 10 years. If this actually was offered to me, I'd probably decline though. Wasting the better years of my life in a basement accomplishing nothing is not worth 2mil a year. What am I supposed to do with all that money

You could make your life a lot more comfortable in the basement by not doubling down, so you aren't exactly wasting them.

Most people go to work for half of their waking hours, then spend the rest at home. You "work" for ten years straight then have the rest of your life to enjoy the entire world and it's opportunities with your ten million.

It's messy, tiring, and I find that all the emotions and complexes that come with being so close to another person get in the way of my enjoyment. It also sometimes feels like a chore to have to please your partner. Generally I'd rather just jerk it off in the comfort of my room and mind.

Most importantly though, it's difficult for me to connect with others, and if she was someone I could connect with, I'd probably respect her too much to want to stab her with my penis.

If I could have a offline linux computer with up-to-date programming tools, I would give up workshop, garden and sex, putting the viable price at 17 for me.

4chan is essential since it's the only unlimited social outlet of any kind in this list. Which would be kinda scary actually...

Doubling the prize money or leaving early would be insane. 10 Million is fine, thanks, I would have absolutely no need for double for that much shittier 10 years. And 7 years is so long anyway that cutting only 3 years away is not worth 35 points.
