I'mguessing you either mean the lack of personal relationships or the governments trying to catch you, but neither are about people getting mad at you. You won't keep personal relationships because everyone you care about will either rot away in what is essentially a very short time for you or they'll increase your likelihood of being found out, which leads to the governments trying to catch you thing. If you get caught you have no other super powers. You don't have super strength and no one even said you can't feel pain, so have fun loving up once, being caught, and dismantled piece by piece in a government lab while being conscious for the entire process.

And it's not just governments, imagine if some really unsavory dudes found out and captured you, and tried to force you to do something awful with your power of invulnerability. If you say no then they over power you, tie you up, throw you in a hole, and pour concrete over it. Have fun for however long that poo poo will take to fall apart, being awake the whole time.

I’d like to stipulate that the immortality comes as a form of super-luck; so in addition to not aging or becoming ill you also avoid stepping in front of a bus or like, the guys coming to kidnap you away to a supervillain lab crash their helicopter and die/forget all about you. When you’re on the titanic you trip and stumble Mr. Bean style implausibly into a rowboat and float effortlessly away to be picked up by a cruise ship full of bikini ladies. Also the heat death if the universe turns out to be like, awesome and super fun and you just start all over in a newly formed galaxy with all your memories only you’re purple now

I would take the money and invest it wisely to become even richer and use every loophole in the books to avoid paying too much in taxes.

With the power of flight, you could be a kickass magician or a really convincing cult leader, so, really, you'd make more than a billion quick enough.

The Walrus posted:anyone who just thinks about the ways they can use flight to make money doesn't deserve the flight imo No actually I think you're mistaken. I'm not saying get rich or anything, but you still need money. If your job isn't flying then you officially have to spend 8 hours a day not flying, which is a massive waste. I'd rather fly.
