Would you rather have 6 months off of work and all adult obligations with you getting everything you want without the social construction of money being relevant, or 50,000 cash no tax?

Money.

I can pay off the rest of my college debt with that and invest the rest.

Money.
For security purposes.
Cause eventually during that 6 month period you're going to run out and you need stuff. Stuff that can only be bought with money.

Think about it this way.

You wanna be broke and yet have all the time you need to earn money? Or rich and no time to use the money?

Time.

In this scenario, I'd take the $50,000 in cash.

But in general time >>>> money

You can always earn money. You'll never get time back.

The whole point of having money is to be free to spend time doing the things you want.

I feel as if both forms of measurement are social constructions. Time is relative in the sense that it differs for every person. Technically, when your time ends, your time ends. When your time began, your time began, and nothing existed to you, until you were socialized into understanding this world and how to interpret it.

Take Tupac and WEB DuBois for example. We measure other peoples notions of time against the average of our own notion and the notion of others, but when you die, your time is up, technically hasn't everyone lived a full life? Time is distributed unfairly, with people like Stalin living to an old age, and Fred Hampton dying in his relative youth.
Everything else that is non biological is based on a social construction. There are many different calendars in both the present and the past cultures. We measure time by the moon, menstral cycles, seasons, clocks, life span, the sun,

We base to much of ourselves on the notion of time, and in consequence, we forget about how to live in the moment. And if I had the opportunity, I would take the time, because when you take every day, no matter how you measure days and time, for what it is, and embrace the essence of the moment, you live.

Money goes hand in hand with oppression. Eventually, we will have to evolve to a new social constuction to ditribute privilege, but for right now money is the tool.
