Is being born white and middle-class the ultimate privilege?

Let's assume that it is. How would the world change if everyone knew this fact before they were born, like the world was the ultimate board game. Presumably, it would be a very popular board game, since the world has been populated for centuries. And it's not just the color of your skin and bank account that determines your success. There are several other factors to consider. Do you want to be born in the United States, the most powerful nation in the world? Do you want to be rich in the modern era, or born in the 18th century? Do you want to be an immigrant to another country, like a Mexican in the US, a Syrian in Turkey, or a Russian in Israel? This is sort of a "choose your own adventure game", but I've never been good at writing those kinds of stories, and it will probably be more fun if everyone can play at once. <br><br>To play, simply make a comment listing the options you want for your next life on Earth. To start, I will make a comment in this thread giving everyone a list of options they can choose from. Three months from now I will create a new thread giving everyone the results of their life, based on their comments.
