$1,000,000 for you if...

[Likwid]

I saw this movie coming out on DVD but it got me thinking

You can have $1,000,000 but you'll be responsible for the death of 1 random human being... could be any person, you won't know ahead of time.

What would you do? I have a hard time saying I'd turn it down.

[dustinsn3485]

That's a crappy choice to have to make. I think I'd turn it down. Money won't be worth anything soon enough...Obama will take care of us...

[crf69]

huh?

[Likwid]

The movie is called The Box

[jhaag]

i'd consider it if i could get the mil in Pounds Fucking Sterling, instead.....

[scottb]

That would be tough. At first the money angle, cash is always nice. If there was a way to tweak the rules to know that it would somebody you don't know, or ever meet, or not even in this country, then maybe. But the draw back is that if somebody else also has that choice to make, the person that dies could be you, or somebody you know.

[Ryan_c_F]

I'd do it and hope that Osama drops over.

So that begs the question if the initial answer is no... for how much?

[Wheezle]

I'll volunteer, u just don't get a cool million.

[scottb]

Even if it was crazy money, like a 100 mil, I think no matter what you bought or did with the money, it would seem hollow, since it is literally "blood money".Although a few Duc RR's could take my mind off the fact of how you got the money.

[mrbret]

Would the random person be anyone in the whole world or the room you are in?

Would it be know to anyone that by taking the money you were the cause the death of person X?

It's a crazy scenario, people die all the time for all different reasons... at least someone would get something out of it.

[OsuMj]

alot of maybes in here... what if it caused one of your children (or other loved ones) to die? different answer this time huh.

[scottb]

The other point, if you would not be know as the cause of somebody's demise, that is one thing.

[Likwid]

1 random person in the world.

It's a difficult decision, could be you, could be some random sick senile person in Asia.

[jporter12]

Nope, don't think so.

[alab32]

Nope. I am POSITIVE that if i got to pick the person, I would take it. I would even do it if I got the pick the person. But I wont be responsible for the death of someone else unless they "deserve" it.

And exactly what would qualify for them deserving it? Just curious, not trying to bash you here....

Absolutely. Hell, I'd do it for less than that

Without trying to sound like "that guy," after being through both Iraq and Afghanistan, there are MANY people I have come across that would deserve it. Some of them got what was coming to them and some of them did not. This could open up some opportunities to take care of loose ends, And get paid for it.

[Bad324]

now I don't feel like so much of an asshole....I like money, what can I say

[kawi kid]

i would, call me a prick, but i would do it.

[Disclaimer]

Been there, done that.

Except it was for a lot less money, and it wasn't random. That's all I can say.

[Alstare03]
