Which one would you choose and why?
A younger me in my early twenties would've picked the first option, but as someone who's in mid-thirties, I no longer have that kind of risk appetite, so I'd prefer to go with the sensible option of instant & guaranteed cash.
Same me, would prefer option B of which is to get $7,500 straight to my wallet, because I believe the $7,500 is sure as compared to the $15,000 bonus of which is a promise that may become difficult, if not almost next to impossible, to fully actualize.
It is a matter of making a more matured decision as an old gambler after accessing and knowing the risk that is worth taking.
