$2 million dollars, but now you are top-speed limited

You get $2 million dollars today, but for the rest of your life, you are limited to a top speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) (relative to the ground.)

For example, if you are flying to Europe, magically, the plane you are in won’t fall out of the sky at such a slow speed, but it will take you a few days to get there.

Stuck in traffic? You can, of course, go much slower than 50 mph, but you will be totally unable to make up any time.

Would you take this deal?
