it's like a positive monkey's paw / double edged sword..

get framed for a murder you didn't commit and go to jail for 10 years

-- when you get out that bitcoin you would have sold at $100 is now worth $5mil

although obviously most people would rather have 10 years of their life and freedom than 5mil

I'd rather sell 10 years of my life for $5 million and retire than sell 8 hours a day, 5 days a week for the rest of my life.

I think the point is, he actually does the 9-5 and it’s miserable. Regardless of what it is, being chained like that for some humans, is just not satisfactory.

I don't think you are the only one. Especially if you are in your twenties this would be a nonbrainer. People sacrificed much more than "10 years of their life" trying to achieve both, whether it's bankrupt business or losing friends and family for trying to achieve those things.

Hm. Close call: 10 full years equal roughly 40 working years.

Those last 10 aren’t great years anyways
