Not a Benny Hill fan then?

Apart from knowing and hating the effect it'll have on my Mum and a few others, I'd flip for 100mill.

[Woodsey]

Roulette for 2 mill right now.

If I was 55+ and busto probably dice for the same

Doubt I'd flip unless I had a terminal disease or summat.

If I just insta die after the event (no waiting around or pain or anything) then:-

Coin - Not sure I would but would have to be 30M or some such silly number where money becomes totally irrelevant for the rest of my life.

Dice - probably about 6M

Wheel - 2M

In answer to my earlier post didn't you say you would give up 10m if you had it to live if you were going to die. That to me means you value your life and would rather be alive with no money so why take the risk for 2m?

Not having a go BTW, I just think its a great question and was trying to see how people viewed the opposing situation. Unfortunatly only you responded because my question didn't have any "gamble".

Wasn't really about gambling my first post tbh. It was just if I was 100% gonna die I'd give up everything, no point having the money if your not there to spend it. The 2 mill to play roulette is a different proposition obv as there is only a small % chance of me dying.

I had the exact same thought to Woodsey about that, imagine everyone would do the same, slightly strange not to imo.

1 loaded gun from 36, do it then ?

Put it to your own head obv.

[MANTIS01]

As a teenager i'd snap say no to all options, but meh, I'm 38 now, missing one number for a mirrion sounds appealing. I mean in the end if you actually spin that one number it's such a fml moment you should just go and quietly accept death as for the best anyhows.

My point is when the question is put this way I guess almost everyone would say they would give up the cash. This means life is more important than leaving all the money to family, friends, charity whatever. But take a risk on your life for any amount of money and you are risking not being there for those same family and friends. Seems odd to me.

Your assuming we are thinking about others rather than just ourselves. I don't have wife/kids etc so I only need to worry about myself.
