For $1 billion dollars would you..

[Uachet]

this deal is for people under 50 years old..

I guess I am out then. I would have said yes to this deal. Another 20 years is not a certainty at my age.

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Yes and on my last day a lot of people are going with me

Nah. Knowing for certain my death is around the corner (like knowing exactly when it’s going to happen) would have me fukked up.

Looking back…this was a weird era for Hov imo.

 

[Hater Eraser]

Nah. Knowing for certain your death is around the corner would have me fukked up.

 

[VelourSocks]

20 years of traveling and exploring the world and not working?.. yeah sign me up immediately

would die with a smile on my face

 

[Vandelay]

No. 40 years maybe.

 

[Richard Glidewell]

I'm double what my predecessor reached.......I'm on minus time already looking 2 decades younger.........everything is icing at this point

This is actually a good question and how folks answer it speaks to how they value their life.

Personally, no amount of money would ever get me to agree to live for only another 20 years. I couldn't fathom the prospect of coming to Year 19 and still having a life to live (wife, kids, grandchildren, experiences etc) and then to have all the stripped away from you. In that moment of reflection, it would make the $1b absolutely worthless.

And while it is a lot of money, to what end would it really change your life for the better?

The only thing it guarantees is more financial freedom. It doesn't guarantee you better relationships. It doesn't guarantee you'll make finanically-sound decisions. It doesn't guarantee you won't be taken advantage of where you could ultimately end up not trusting anyone (not even your family). It doesn't guarantee you could lose x-amount to where you're no longer living the life you envisioned.

You could be sat up in your mansion, living a life of instant gratification, but how long will that be fulfilling for? 10 years in and all that shyt could get old, and then you'll be living the next 10 years full of regret, with all that money and not even living.

hell yeah i dont even wanna live for another year

 

[Groundworks]

Yeah I would. I'm 39 with 6 kids (ONE baby mother) so I would accept it for sure. The whole reason I breathe and work is for my kids. 1 billion I could retire and enjoy the next 20 years with them. My pops died at 45, brother at 21 so living until 59 would be a blessing.

Pass that offer to your elderly parents and inherit that when they die at a reasonable age
