Probably the dollars billion
I'm rarely ever in the sea so, that wouldn't much of a plus. As far as I know, if I'm invisible, that means there's nothing where my eyes are to bounce light off of so, I'd be blind, as well. By staying young forever, would that mean forever as in, eternity or just as long as I live? That and time travel (which we already have, from what I'm told) and the invisibility thing would be great, if I can lick the being blind part but, if I had the dollars one billion (the way you've written it out), I'd have enough money to try to build those things on my own. And, right now, I REALLY NEED the money to keep from losing my house, again!!!

Green one for sure. I am terrified of my old age and all the physical problems that comes along with old age.

[serious]

Thanks for the MHO

[Rei13]

Toss up between green and purple. Staying young isn’t the same as being immortal tho and increases the likelihood of not having a peaceful death so going to go with purple and hope for the best

[queenofcardio]

Green is my favorite color and I feel very young. Forever Young 💚💚

[NicholasofAustralia]

I like green shirts and jackets for years now - it's not my fave colour yet it may as well be "very, me" 🍏

[888theGreat]

Black, I am too curious about certain women and I could really find out what type of person people really were. I am too curious of a person. The money would just get me in trouble with taxes. Time travel would be interesting but future would be too dangerous and you would know when you are going to die. Breathe like fish would be limited use. Staying young would be a curse because everyone one you knew would die and you would be constantly trying to know new people , but you would see your kids , nieces and nephews all die. I would say staying young would be my second pick because I would see Jesus return again.

Stay young forever how would that one work? Would I still age internally and die?
Therefore eh. And I'll take Purple. But if stay young applies to my internals then I can only die by a tragedy sounds good to me. Theoretically could live a long time.
Purple by the way gives Red as you can go into future see a winning lottery and then go back and win it, the safest way to use said time travel too. Going into the past... could have uncertain effects.

1. "Stay young forever how would that one work?"

If I may answer your question only on the green potion. You have asked really good questions here. Only the images are displayed but no explanation or clarity on how all those potions will work. Hence it is left to the reader to understand they want to understand. As per my understanding if you remember the character Wolverine from X-men movies who stops ageing once he is in his youth. His body just remains in his physical prime once he reaches a certain age. This green potion in question must be very similar to that I suppose.

2. "Would I still age internally and die?"

Well, ageing is a biological process and ageing is basically when your body stops producing new cells or slows down the production of new and young cells and slowly the quantity of old and damaged cells in your body begins to rise. Basically this is what is ageing. This is of course an internal process. Hence if the green potion in question is consumed then obviously you will not age internally as your body's biology will change so your body will constantly keep producing new and young cells while repairing old cells. If you don't age internally then you will not age externally as well. Simple.

Yes, as you said since you will be young forever so you are not likely to have a peaceful and painless death.

Hope this makes sense.

[Kaneki05]

@serious Well Wolverine eventually dies from old age cause his was slowed but not stopped.
And you are right about cells but internally is more complicated as our organs will fail no matter what at some point even if functionally healthy with the biggest concern being our brain.
Cells being kept healthy won't stop our organs failing which is why this be a very key important detail as to the choice.
Being young forever but getting to 90 with dementia for the rest of however longer you live for don't sound much different to living naturally besides the difference of appearance.

If it meant that our organs would remain the same too somehow, then it's great but I don't think it would. And if we went deeper into biology with this there would probably be major side effects to not aging ironically.
So it depends if green is whimsical magic in nature to keep ourselves just like how we with nothing changing somehow forever or if it's routed in some grounded science because if it is.., not going to be a fun time.

@Kaneki05

Well, yes Wolverine does die and the reason he points is because of the adamantium experiment that was done on him years ago. The adamantium poisoning is what affected his healing factor that always kept him young and in his physical prime. If he never underwent the adamantium experiment then it is possible that he would have stayed young for who knows how many centuries. When he does die I think he was already more than 200 years old.

1. "And you are right about cells but internally is more complicated as our organs will fail no matter what at some point even if functionally healthy with the biggest concern being our brain.

These are really good points. There is a contradiction in your point, in the sense that if new and young cells are being produced then it means the organ should not fail ( In theory), the reason is because our body, our organs are made up of different types of cells so if the green potion works such that our bodies can produce all types of cells but new and healthy ones all the time. In that case the organs should not fail. However, this would be something like healing factor.

I don't know, only a doctor or a scientist can explain this.

2. "If it meant that our organs would remain the same too somehow, then it's great but I don't think it would"

Well, since nothing is mentioned in the question about how the green potion would work so unless the green potion also granted regenerative healing factor (like wolverine) our organs can still fail due to other factors even if healthy cells are being produced. Yes along with anti-ageing if it also grants regenerative healing factor then not only we will be young forever but our organs will also remain the same will always be at 100% efficiency.

3."And if we went deeper into biology with this there would probably be major side effects to not aging ironically."

Yes, there will be but it would depend on how the green potion works. If along with stopping the ageing if it also grants regenerative healing factor then it means both internally and externally we would stay young. However, in this case the effects would be more psychological in nature..

I mean just imagine, while you will stay young and in your physical prime but you will have to see everyone around you, including the ones you love age and then die naturally/peacefully from old age. I think constantly seeing this will surely affect a person mentally and psychologically. I am sure more psychological effects on this.

Like boredom with time and also there is the possibility of not getting a peaceful and natural death.

4."So it depends if green is whimsical magic in nature to keep ourselves just like how we with nothing changing somehow forever or if it's routed in some grounded science because if it is.., not going to be a fun time."

Well, from the points we both have made the green potion must work in a way that it provides regenerative healing factor along with stopping of ageing internally and externally. Otherwise it is incomplete and scientifically it won't work if only ageing is stopped.

This is a really good discussion

[AviatorTom]

I don't want to live forever or breathe in the sea. Invisibility would be nice but not necessary. Time travel risks changing the timeline, which is not good.

So, I'll take the money... And give most of it to charity.

[HawkPerception]

I'd choose green as long as I can also choose when I want to die. Nothing beats having youth and health.

[Sunrising]

I would drink a little bit of red, green and the purple potions.

So I would age slower, I'd have a some dollars to spend, and I would be able to see what the future had in store for us and our planet.

[aceleon]

time travel would both cover for me being young and have the money.

[7Phoenix7]

Can we just mix them into one lovely potion…? Hehe

[David__951]

I was thinking about that as well hehe

[7Phoenix7]

@David__951 great minds 😉

[David__951]

Yeah, I like you a lot 😉

[ChicoFromThe305]

Purple, I can unborn people if they get up my nerves in the future, no violence necessary, I just make sure their parents never meet or have them meet later than the original date.

[Anonymous]

I would like to take to cash to help improve my own life and also help other people.

[Sunrising]

If you are granted your wish Sunrising could do with some help 😄

[Opinion Owner]

Maybe

[Likes2drive]

Staying young forever would create a lot of opportunities with plenty of time for mistakes

[Iron_Man]

Green I can play football and gain a lot of experience playing in the NFL

[drummerdude25]

White potion… all colors combined… Life would be immaculate! 😅

[FreyaRed]

Green.
A pretty girl doesn't need a wallet

[Simslover92]

Time travel and fix my mistakes as well as play the lotto to get that much money

[Simslover92]

So Purple

[NathanDavis]

time travel... then I could keep coming back to drink them all...

[Staximus]

Purple. I'd go back in time and hang out with my parents and my grandma. Then I would go watch them build the pyramids and all the other ancient shit

[Anonymous]

For fictional purposes only, the fun purple one 🟣 sounds fun ⚗️ 🧪

[ohsheeT]

You need one more drink and it goes into our water, everybody has to tell the truth. From now on

[Unycorn]

Take the cash and donate it.

[Sunrising]

Donations welcome at Sunrising. com 😄

[CuriousMufuxka]

None. They don't even have nutrition facts on them!

[exitseven]

stay young forever would do it.
