Unhappy Darkworking in Subjective Reality?

So this is going academic now I stated my problems with understanding Steve's Subjective Reality in a post in February called "Darkworkers Live only in Objective Reality."

Another reason I stick with Ob. Reality is that I am attached to the me, that is here on this beautiful earth, for only a fixed amount of time. I don't believe that the 'I' that I experience will continue after death. My mind is contingent on a living brain. Yet I love this 'I' so much, that I would not want it to be completely integrated in some higher, universal soup of everything. EVEN if that is my true nature, I just don't want to make the bet. I love me, and my inevitable death gives my life a strange peace. It makes my experiences special and unique. If I identify myself with the ancient daemons of life on earth (lust, aggression, hunger and even pain), then I am just as immortal as the Buddha's in heaven.
From this last podcast I understand that Steve would have agreed with me in August. Yet he replied this in February:

But your belief system will definitely interact heavily with your choice of polarity, so an objective light(dark)worker will likely live differently than his/her subjective counterpart.

Personally I think that a subjective belief system would make it easier to take risks, regardless of your disposition.

When I was most aligned with the darkworking side though, I was an atheist with a totally objective belief system.
I continued on my quest of understanding SR, because it explains the Law of Attraction. If you master it, you would become much more powerful. I am a few weeks in a second test trial of SR to try it from the inside out. And it is working a lot better than the first time.

But I still don't see how identifying with the world (consciousness) would keep me from pursuing fame, fortune and adoration. I want to improve MY consciousness, which is actually all of the only one consciousness. It makes me feel great to see any happy face.

But how much happiness will "I" see when my avatar, enhanced by a lifetime of darkworking, dies? What will "I" see and experience from the moment my avatar gives the spirit? Kingston's worldly ego will probably be gone (except from the financial records of history ). This is my fundamental problem. My avatar is NOT fundamentally safe, but reality as a whole is definitely fundamentally safe. Now do I believe in SR? Am "I" safe?

@Steve: I have a really hard time believing the whole world would end with my death. So if that would exclude me from SR, what good explanation do I have left for the Law of Attraction?

@everyone: I REALLY need to get this, and any help would be greatly appreciated!
