Which of these cash money payments would you prefer to get?


Pretend taxes have already been properly taken out. The amounts above represent the after-tax cash you'd actually pocket.

the $50MM, i think. the biggest red flag about the loss of privacy would be people trying to scam me out of the money - but i think i'm skeptical enough with my money that i wouldn't lose it that way.

if this were $5MM vs $10MM i'd pick the privacy pretty confidently.

I'll take the 5 million so people don't bug me for money all the time. I can't imagine spending $5m in my entire life so it's enough for me!

At 10 to 1 it's not even close. With 45M extra I'm happy to pay friends some.

privacy sounds nice, but the difference is just too big to pass up with the 50

You could spend $44 million on privacy and security and still come out a million bucks ahead.

10M/100M would make this an easier choice.

I am leaning toward 5M though

Also $5 million is already a ton to me. $50 wouldn't really change my own personal life for the better in any way. I could be charitable with it but not at the risk of it ruining my own life.

With $50 million you could easily go somewhere secluded; away from people pestering you.

If money would change your relationship with your family and friends for the worse, then your relationship isn't very good

I mean, the fact that you're millions of dollars richer is going to come up sooner or later. If you try and hide it from your family and friends, and then they figure it out later, it's an even worse situation for you

How certain are you that $50 million wouldn't change your relationships with family and/or friends?

Personally, I feel I have an incredibly tight bond with my family and close friends... and I'm not certain at all. I have no idea how much a massive fortune may affect things.

The ones I have a good relationship with? Absolutely certain.

I don't keep a relationship with the ones that could be toxic

You seem certain that $5M isn't going to change your relationships, which is even more baffling

Well, it's simple, really.

I have greedy relatives. I have drunk relatives. I have horribly racist relatives.

I don't concern myself with them very much.

With family and close friends, it's pretty easy to pick up on who is genuine.

To me anything above 2 or 3 million is just not necessary. I would not alter my lifestyle for the additional money.

my gut reaction was 5. 5 is enough to set you for life, but 50 isn't enough to be truly fuck you money to counteract the annoying minor fame

but after thinking about the good that could be done it's hard not to take the 50.

i'd be more worried about being targeted by random people, and having all future relationships ruined when they found out, and so on and so forth

but it's hard to throw away the extra 45 million of health care for relatives

it's a tough choice.

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

50 because I'm not paranoid. Family/friends who change can go fuck themselves and literally no one else would recognize me as that guy who won the lotto. None of you would recognize anyone who's won the lotto so the former is really the only thing to be concerned about. There's still literally tons of people who would be richer than me, why would I fear being targeted by crime?

in this day and age there will be a news article about you winning and your date/new friend/etc will eventually google you

even if people are polite there will always be that hanging in the air and their minds when a calamity affects their family

i know some rich people (some far richer than that) and it seems to just be a thing that can't be avoided
