You are given $20mil USD on the account of remaining single forever.... do you take it?!

Realistically I should take the deal, since it's basically just free money without me giving anything up. But if we could somehow reverse the deal so I'm magically not single for the rest of my life if I give up the money, that would be a deal I'd take in a heartbeat.
Heaven or Hell. Duel 1. LET'S ROCK!
Honestly I wouldn't even give it a second thought. My partner has lifted me up from the deepest pits of despair and changed my life. I have gone from an emotionless husk to such a different person. There is not a day go by where he doesn't make me smile or a night where I don't think about him before I close my eyes. Money is nothing compared to the light that he brings to my life and the answer is easily no.
What?
This some bs. You're still single during a one night stand
So one night stands are in? lol give me my 20mil.
Gladly. I love my girlfried, but I'm a loner at heart so I think I'd manage. Also as long as "remaining single forever" means I can sleep around, I don't really see too many downsides here.
Nope. Fuck money. It's nice to have enough to have a comfy life but becomming filthy rich seems like a hassle.
This money fetish is so fucking dumb.
Of course i realize some people have way to little money. And that's a shame. But a lot of that is caused by the greed of vain mediocre dumb people who just want more and more.

I mean what are platonic friendships and families right?
What is casual sex?
Some us don't need to hinge our happiness on having serious romantic partners.
Nah, ONS are good, i meant "no partner, but i can have a best friend who i'm also friends with benefits with and who also lives with me" is some bullshit loophole that renders the hole thought experiment moot.
It's not money fetish to want to get out of debt, buy a house instead of renting, help my parents out the way they've helped me over the years.
I would take that money in a heartbeat. I like being single and have no desire to have a romantic partner.
I'd take the deal in a heartbeat. 20 million means never having to work again for the rest of my life. It means I can spend my life traveling the world, seeing everything I want to see, doing everything I want to do. It means the absolute best medical care for the rest of my life. It means my family won't have to worry about any financial issues. It means that charities close to my heart will benefit from my donations.
Relationships are usually temporary things that often end in heartbreak, despair and you end up with nothing to show for them.
Give me that fucking 20 million bro.

No but this is you acting like a dramaqueen. You don't need 20 million for that.
I already said i wished everybody could live a normal comfortable life. if you read what i said it's a stretch to think i said everyone wanting to help another person or wants to go out of debt is a money whore.
Getting paid to continue living a life I've already been doing seems like a pretty no-brainer decision.
I've been single for 12 years and I still love it. I miss the sex sometimes but the internet gets the (hand)job done.
No you just thought you'd get on your high horse like some edgelord because people are engaging with the original question. Lets face it if someone offered you $20m youd rip their hand off for it.
It doesn't have to be $20m. It could be any amount.
Same here! I'd get my social fills with friends and sexual fills with hookups. I'm not much of a romantic anyway.
I could build so much cool shit with that money, those will be my babies. Also I'd got the best dog and coolest cat.
I wouldn't say no to 20 million. That wasn't the question. But i would also be scared to death to get 20 million. I would be careful to not tell a soul and spend it wisely. I've grown to dislike what people are willing to do for money. I would never trade my relationship that i'm in for over 23 years now for money. No edgelord. I think wanting to become rich is a fool's dream or a power-hungry person's dream. That's different than wanting to lead a life that is comfortable enough.
I'd like more money than i have now. There is a lot of stuff i can buy, travels, etc. I get greedy just thinking about it. And that's the scary part.
My best memories have nothing to do with money. But with people.

My answer would have to be a resounding no. I think that those who answered yes aren't looking at it in the grand scheme of things or are coming at it from a much different perspective or experience in life.
Sure, you have money that, ideally, should last you (almost) an entire lifetime as a single person. However, you're also entirely alone. You don't have that special someone to share those unique experiences with. Many of the responses here seem to assume that, if you isolated yourself as a result of acquiring the income, you'd have few worries in your life, although that would almost assuredly not be the case. Those feelings brought about by isolation would eventually catch up.
I've experienced first-hand what it's like to be in love with someone—to want to share those unique moments with someone. And when I think about it, I'd rather have that than be exceedingly well-off, even though I really need the money.
Apologies, as I know this was a bit of a personal and more serious answer to the question.

I agree. I don't want to become filthy rich. If it were $20m I'd pay off all the debts my parents and I have. Buy a 'normal' sized house. Get a decent car nothing stupid like a Ferrari, etc..
Then I'd consult with an accountant to figure out what is the best way to set myself up for life with an amount that wont raise any suspicions then donate whats left.
i always been alone, and while i still hope to find someone one day, i don't except it will happen, so it's an easy deal for me
i could do so much even with just 2 millions!
i'm poor and i still don't have that, so fuck it give me those 20 millions! I'll manage, i have friends, i have many things i want to do, i never known love so it's not something i'll miss

Deal, easily.

Seriously, casual relationships ftw.
