If you lost half of your income, but got memories of a a version of yourself living a life of leisure with that part of your income every night, would life be better or worse than it is right now?

You're viewing a single thread.
losing half of my income to imagine a version of myself with the other half of my income? I can do that for free. what on earth is supposed to be the upside here? one that's so great I'm losing half of my money?
Yeah, I don't get this at all. Does OP just... not have an imagination?
It is a reframing of a previous question asked on this sublemmy; the one about the clones.
I thought that my interpretation of that initial question would yield a far negative response, and indeed it did.
I mean yeah. It reads roughly like “Your life just got way worse. But you can think about it and pretend it’s better. Profit?”
The other question framed it like "you've got an indeterminate number of clone slaves like you" and the responses were more mixed than here.
I fail to see how the two questions are related tbh
I'm asking from the perspective of the clone.
Excepting that, presumably, the clone's labor can still produce income. Not for the clone, obviously, since it said "slaves", but "you" would wind up making more money, not just splitting what you already have.
