but...if you're the emulated you...you're going to die after you give him/don't give him the money.
It's not just about the USB sticks -- to me that seems inert. But if he's running you off those USB sticks for (let's say) a few hours every day, then you could (in fact there is a 1000/1001 chance that you will) wake up tomorrow morning and find yourself running from one of those drives, and know that there is a clear horizon of a few hours on the subjective experiences you can anticipate. This is a prospect which I, at least, would find terrifying.
