I found this picture on some random website and I just wanted to throw in my 2 cents about it...
Switch it around to "You acquired great riches and vast amounts of power" but "you gain immortality," and you've got Kohelet (Shlomo) right there. This is what he wanted most. He had the power and wealth, but he desperately wanted the immortality too, because when trying to "be" G-d, you kinda need the immortality part as well as wisdom, power and wealth. According to Shlomo, without the immortality, all the rest of it is useless.
Shlomo would very likely agree with chartini (the commenter under the blue box if you didn't see it) that that would be a "horrible" thing.
