Weird question of the day...

Let me ask you guys a weird question. Hope no one would be offended by it. Someone just asked me and it took me a while to give an answer, so I thought to bring it here. Here's the question...

Live a jet set life, have mansions in two different countries, own a private jet, wear only designer outfits, friends with presidents, captains of industries, celebrities, have more money than you know what to do with it...and then die at age 40.
OR
Live poor till you turn 30 years old and then become paralyzed from the waist down after a tragic accident. You will depend on others to take care of you for the rest of your life...you will still live poor but the best part is; you will live to the ripe old age of 80.

Which would you choose?
