[irrational]

It's interesting to think about what my life might have been like if I had been born 500 years earlier. I think carpenter or stonemason are what I would have been most interested in. But I really love books, so maybe I would have ended up in the clergy. Thank goodness I was born now.

I wonder what I would be born again as if rebirth was real. Maybe a prince. Or maybe a Nobel Prize winning physicist…

You would likely have been a peasant. The veil of ignorance doesn’t even make exceptions for HN readers.

You would very likely have ended up with the same profession as your father (assuming you are male).
