Heres an even better one. Would you take a million dollars now in exchange for a year off of the life of whoever (not you) you love most in this world.
No fucking way. I wouldn't trade a second of a love one's life for a billion dollars. Not because of the time I would miss but because it's not mine to trade. Now, if we could work something out where we split the dough...

Probably. But that feels like striking a deal with a demon.

Trading money for life is an absolutely disgusting concept...Life being the most sacred thing on this planet and money being the exact opposite.
No I wouldn't, irregardless of my circumstances.

I dig what you're saying but what about quality over quantity? Life spent working all the time and not being able to do the shit you want cause you're broke... it ain't as good, is it?

Depends on how you define your terms.
Happiness doesn't begin with money. This whole concept is absurd.

Imagine the things you could do with a million dollars though ... How many people could you give life to?
Good question braceface.

I have been diagnosed with illnesses that will plague me my whole life. While the pain is treatable now, by the end of my life it may not be. I could end up in a bed yelling at people to bring me shit like an old grumpy person. I think I have the right to sell that year of my life, obviously, I have the chance to not be that serious or they may have a cure by then...But I would trade that last year. That year isn't sacred, unless your like a devil worshiper or something.
