On one hand I have a shot (no pun intended) to financially cushion my family indefinitely...

...on the other hand I have two little children that need me in their lives.

I'm going to pass and earn money the hard way. šŸ˜Ž

This forum has a really bizarre fascination with billionaires and the fantasy of wealth

For fun, in my head I chose one bullet. When to random.org and said if it rolls a six, I would die.

It rolled a 6.



Quote for truth.
Did the same thing, my number was 4, rolled it the second time I pressed the button. Voted to abstain from this wonderful activity.

EDIT: Also your username is apt.

No, my life is plenty happy as-is and that amount of money seems low in the grand scheme of things.

No, I'll pass. Knowing my luck, I would shoot myself in the head on the first shot with one bullet. I can't think of Russian roulette without thinking of the Deer Hunter.

No. Even if you win, you just watched someone blow their brains out right in front of you. What good is money if you can never sleep again?

You feel the most alive during that trigger pull.

Only person who can die in this situation is you. There is only one trigger pull at the odds you choose and you either win or lose

As with all psychopathic questions, the answer is "why is this even a question and how fucked are we if this ever even came up".

Though now I'm thinking of a Saw reboot where all the victims are billionaires. And I hate that franchise.

Now that pitch is on the public domain. You just missed your chance without probability of death!

We already suffer enough humiliation by way of billionaires so I'll pass on this further opportunity to be a dancing monkey, thanks.
