You have the opportunity to choose between two choices:
A) Unlimited wealth
The clincher: You are extremely homely in a way that is viewed as popular opinion.(say there was one)
The rules: You are not allowed to alter your appearance in any way surgically or via procedures like Botox, etc. Traditional methods of beauty enhancement is allowed (cosmetics, hair color, etc.) However, any enhancements do not alter popular opinion, you are still homely but you have an infinite cash flow.
B) Unyielding beauty
The clincher: You will be beautiful in a way that is appealing to most people find attractive (again, saying there was one). However - your beauty cannot lead you to wealth in any way (marry into money, borrow lots of money, modeling etc.). You will always struggle with money and never be comfortable. However, your beauty is lifelong through all ages and will not fade.
All things being equal in terms of wisdom and health, which would you choose and
