Would you watch the earth form from nothing to the current time for 500.000 $?

I give you a cozy chair and you are now going to watch the beginning of earth til today with all your senses. You wonβt age, everything freezes. But once you reach this minute you will get a million dollars.
All you have to do is watch earth form from nothing to how it is now in this minute and then you will come down to earth with a million dollars and nothing changed.
Yes or no? You will see things nobody has ever seen and you can watch the dinos if you get to that point after a few million years. I will give you a chair and binoculars

I mean many billions of years doing nothing would 100% send u insane but if I had something to do I'd do it. A hell of a gaming setup and a fat steam library and I'd be good.
I don't think you realise how long a billion years is.
I figured by the time I've finished playing. Through the library completely I've forgotten the first one and repeat.
You'd go insane from the isolation looooong before finishing a fat Steam library. But first you'd be completely bored of gaming. Even if you feel no fatigue, hunger, tiredness etc it would quite quickly lose meaning. There's a reason most retired people don't do that thing they love 24/7. We just can't derive enjoyment from something we can and get to do all the time. Waiting, longing and planning to is vitally important to enjoyment.
If you're deeply autistic but still functioning you might be able to survive the isolation. But you'd need an insanely rigorous schedule set up for yourself where you treat observing the universe form as a job and treat yourself to gaming or whatever activity. But even under those circumstances that individual would likely go completely insane and be a vegetable within a thousand years. After a billion, if you literally can't die no matter what you do, then you wouldn't even be able to form thoughts, your brain would be so fried you'd present as someone with lock-in syndrome and just lay there until you finally get to die. Torture is putting it so mildly it's like calling Carolina Reaper Peppers about as spicy as vanilla ice cream.
The difference between a million dollars and a billion dollars is about a billion dollars as people say.
For an actual example, one second is a wave of your arm. 100, 000 seconds is 1.25 days. A million seconds is a little over a week. A billion seconds is over 33 years. Being trapped in a box for 4 billion years is essentially cosmic torture that ancient gods would do to punish each other.
I dunno, I could spend a good long while playing nothing but Football Manager if I didn't have to worry about being anywhere else.
