Yeah why not. I'd make them the best three years of my life with all those powers. I'd try to get as many girls as I can. Or I would become a villain and take over the world since no one would be able to stop me.
Life is all baout creating a legacy for ones self. (Sorry guys i dont believe in life after Death.) The instant before i die i wan't to know i'll always be rembered. I've always kinda thought the only way to really achieve this; is by being invcredible evil and Killing loads of people (E.G. Adolf Hittler Gengus Kahn). Very Few really Good people have been rembered for a suitably long enough period (Jesus and Gahndi are the only ones who spring to mind. ) With Supermans powers you create the greatest legacy ever known, wether it be for good or evil.
I would travel around the Universe in my two first years...going to each planet...being the first man to set his foot on Sun...meeting the other civilizations before anything.
Then in my last year I would help the Earth...leaving in history forever.
Or then I would do something evil...that kind of people stay in history longer...
me i would want superman's powers period...let alone for three years, but i pretty much share the same sentiment. i would do some good but in the true form of supes. meaning, have a day job but hero in secret. i would want a high profile job like an NFL player, or an olympic athlete.. make a whole bucnh o money off salary and endorsements, to leave behind for the dozen or so kids im gonna get in those three years, then when i feel its time to die like a cat does i set it up to make it look like i died in a plane crash or drowned at sea. then i just crawl off into a cave or something and punch the walls out to let it collapse on me and just chill til my time comes
I wouldnt want his powers if i only got to live for 3 years. I think that would be very selfish of me to choose to do that when i have so many people around me, who love me, who have invested so much time and effort in my life only for me to throw it away voluntarily just so i can play the hero for 3 years. No way. Theres things which matter so much more to me than delusions of grandeur. Things such as family and friends. I believe theres virtually no better way of creating a great legacy for you to be remembered by than starting a family. By having children and instilling in them morals, ethics and a sense of right and wrong. Being remembered and cherished by my family because i was there for them, because i cared and provided for them as they grew up into fine young adults is far more important to me than being remembered worldwide, by people who care not for me as a person, but for my celebrity.
Now if you said 20 years then id reconsider lol.
