Choose : Immortality or A trillion dollars?

[KuroTan]

In the other hand, the trillion dollars...You can buy pretty much what you want...if not everything.But after that...what would you spend it on if you got everything you ever wanted?

No you see, the point is in getting everything you want. Then you can spend your time using all of them. You can just donate a portion of your money to your family, various charities, whoever you think needs them and just relax with all the stuff you have. I can just see myself playing PS3 on an IMAX theater inside my mansion.*.* No need to worry about spending the rest of it.^^

[I<3ShellShock]

easy, neither. i want to work for a living, enjoy my life. not be a stuck up snoody jerk. i hate people that just get all their money by laying at home, they're good for nothing. immortality, would be just plain boring. if the world blew up, would you want to float in space forever?

[bug]

I would go with a trillion dollars. There's no point in being immortal. Just being immortal won't give you money, you'll still have to work like eveyone else to actually get luxiers in life.
Xaloth, I get what your trying to say. But don't you think that your answer is a, neither, is a waist? Even with a trillion dollars, you could still work. I mean, you could give the trillion dollars to charity or use it in case something big happens and you don't have enough money to cover it.

i am so choosing the money
i agree with all of you

immortality actually scares me
watching people die
knowing that you cant see them again
*shiver*

so yeah
me would want money

[Masali]

Definitely the money. I would never want to live forever, that would be really lame after awhile. I'd definitely invest in a giant mansion/space station with tons of guitars and an entire room made out of pillows and trampolines.

[Day]

Neither.

Id rather live a normal human life, and enjoy it.
Money had never been a big thing for me.

You all realize that you getting a trillion unaccounted-for dollars would send the world's economy into a terrible downward spiral, and you would probably end up with a fraction of that value, right? Enjoy your two hundred dollar packs of gum.


Alternatively, immortality would eventually drive you insane, but fear not. Eternal youth and health were not an advertised part of the deal, so after a while you'd simply be a senile, barely functioning lump unaware of your own existence.

[KuroTan]

You all realize that you getting a trillion unaccounted-for dollars would send the world's economy into a terrible downward spiral,

Only if you're dumb and spend it all in one go. You could bury it in your backyard and live off a fraction of that amount easy.

 

I don't even know why I'm defending this side.^^'

[Kalt96]

The money but not because I'm greedy. I see the inmortality as a punishment. Imagine you just had the hardest day at work where you had to work at the best of your abilities almost the whole day and all you wish for when you arrive home is to lay down in your bed and rest for a while but you just can't. Would that be fair?

[Masali]

Yeah, that works. Or, maybe you could realize that this is supposed to be a fun topic and the economical repercussions don't factor in because if they did it'd be a major downer.

[Manhattan_Project_2000]

Step One: Choose Money.
Step Two: Go Transhuman. Like an Omnipresent AI or something.
Step Three: ???
Step Four: Profit.

Best of both worlds.

[Capernicus]

I need moneh! So I can buy my woman stuffs!

[BuLmA]

*shiver*

so yeah
me would want money

Agreed...I choose money too! I don't wanna be immortal...if I had that trillion dollars..I would build my own castle ...a creepy castle like Prince Vlad's that you can see the full moon at the right side of the castle. Awwwoooooo!!!!! I just love it!

[Sanosuke23]

Yeah, that works. Or, maybe you could realize that this is supposed to be a fun topic and the economical repercussions don't factor in because if they did it'd be a major downer.

True, but I'm an insufferable realist and was particularly cranky when I wrote that, among other recent posts.

That's isn't really true. Inflation only applies when a lot of money is being circulated. Maybe you should explain more.

[_CTA_]

I choose money. I dont want to be lonely for the rest of my life.

[Interpreter]

Rationality. Definite money. XD

[LeTombassador]

i choosed trillion dollars cause im already immortal

[Eris]

Step One: Choose Money.
Step Two: Go Transhuman. Like an Omnipresent AI or something.
Step Three: ???
Step Four: Profit.

Best of both worlds.

Or, do it the other way around:
1. Choose immortality.
2. Bust your way into a bank and steal one MILLION dollars! Because, heh, what are they gonna do, shoot you? Unless they bury you in concrete or launch you into space or something, you're not going to be stoppable.
3. ???
4. Profit!

[BJRMuffin]

Immortality.

-I Could Earn that money in that time.. which is like forever

-I Don't need dollars, I am from the UK

[Eris]

-I Don't need dollars, I am from the UK

Ever heard of money exchange? Though, I think they'd have a hard time exchanging one trillion dollars.

Don't get mad...get glad! (or whatever the stupid slogan is)

[Darthanime]

Well since one of my goals in life is to gain as much knowledge as I can so I'd choose immortality, if I could remain young. Since I want to gain knowledge I can never get bored with one of my hobbies and plus I'd get to see what the future would be like.

I would lose my friends for sure, but I can make more, but that doesn't mean I won't miss the old ones.

My only question is what would happen if I got chopped up, or better yet what if I fell into a black hole or if I'm around during the Big Crunch if it happens.

Also with immortality I could get the one trillion dollars aswell.

[KuroTan]

Unless they bury you in concrete or launch you into space or something,

That's a horrible way to spend eternity.

[overwatch]

Well if your in concrete, just catch up on sleep till it erodes away.
With space take a piano and spend eternity practising (aka Bender style) - besides at some point you should hit another planet - just wait around till it develops life.
