I am more so suffering from body and place. Take my brain right outta here and put it somewhere better, it wouldn't be perfect but it could be a massive improvement.

You are a perfect customer for VR goggle manufacturers.

If it were not for my lack of money/spending (I'm still using a 1050Ti), sure. That and lack of space, potential nausea/motion sickness, and just probably not being interested in the VR games.

Also doesn't really help the body part (medical issues), and while brain-headspace VR could be cool I would not trust one of the techbros to have access to even just my optic nerve.

If I could volunteer for some sci-fi stuff with scientists trying to help people I would (though I would want some stipulations), even though I suspect we're already at the point where there isn't enough time for scientists to meaningfully integrate brains into machine bodies (such as for sea, space, infrastructure etc). VR brain network might be a consolation prize, not that I expect to be there...
