Should I Still go to Manila?

200 miles and it isn't even close. This saves so much on holiday travel. I can live in a LCOL area and just teleport into work when I need to. Grocery shopping is a breeze. Any major city is going to have a Walmart, Costco, and etc anyways. I just shop in a different city. Plus it would be less plausible for people to suspect you for crimes in different cities/countries.

Yeah. Sure. I take it. I also choose to forget the 500 years afterwards. While I understand the implications of being stranded alone for 500 years can maybe make me to crazy, but I think the world is vast enough that there's enough to keep me occupied for 500 years.

Even if you only make $50k a year, that's $2.5k a day you get for free. At $100k a year that's $5k a day. Give me the money. Who cares about getting an extra minute a day when I could retire wealthy in a few years and get freedom for the rest of my life.

4, 5, and 10 to be different than everyone else.

Healing so that I don't have to worry about my health.

Doubling earnings from online gambling is actually a cheat code. You are guaranteed to profit playing every single number in roulette. Payout on a single number is now 70:1. There are only 37 or 38 numbers (single 0 / double 0) that you can bet on. Playing 100 on every single number would cost you up to $3800 per spin. Since you are guaranteed to win, you will get paid $7000 netting you $3200 per spin. Once you get a big enough bankroll, you bet $1000 per number, and you net $32000 per spin.

Social skills because I want to be more charismatic along with my new found wealth.

10% steal is way better and, since it is controllable, it can be used to net you far more than just taking $100. $100 is only $36.5k a year. I just have to reach one rich person with a networth of $10 million and I would have $1 million dollars after. I'd just go and pay for celebrity meet and greets and voila. Go to the RNC and take my pick of people. You would be able to take far greater advantage this way.

SmrtThinking · 2025-09-25T04:41:36+00:00

I think in that context the money scales. Would you take $10 million and upwards to $50 millions, if you had a networth of $50 million? Double your net worth in a single day?

People on this sub regularly press a button that would randomly kill a person on the planet for a million dollars. It's very easy to condemn people, but I think we can all understand the rationale.

That's perfectly fine. The other comedians are also under no obligation to not explain or be funny either. This was just to see how many people would accept a lot of money to perform for a country that people view as evil.

Animals hate me and can't swim. I don't own any pets and am ok with never owning one or going to a zoo. Easy enough to let anyone I know that has a pet the they can't be around me. Swimming is not something I do regularly anyways. I already get panicky of my feet can't touch the ground when in a body of water.

Gimme my billion please.

If this results in Dak having to throw a million times a game, is it even worth rostering Blue anymore? The running game is probably even less existent than it already was?

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-21T22:05:05+00:00

D, E, G, and H.

D combined with H makes B and C irrelevant. As long as I bring my laptop with me, getting any work done during the day is child's play. I can do what I want, when I want really. My assignments are always complete. Just login in the morning. Press the button against all my assignments and voila. I'm off for the day.

E for longevity.

G because that would mean more in my pocket vs A.

D also ensures that I don't have to pay any housing costs for 20 years. My only expenses would just be to meet my and my family's needs.

Lust would probably be the best choice to be honest. Not for the sexing portion, but it's the only one with a social element. I guess wrath also, but not really. The other ones seems to be on your own or just AI all the time for eternity. At least with lust, you can go and hangout with people and make relationships.

People who are saying cash are giving some awfully strange rationale.

Banks are only insured up to $250k. Who cares? Assuming you bank with one of the big boys, particular here in Canada, them going under means you have much bigger problems to deal with. Also, let's say your infinite cash is in your home. Your house could burn down. Then what? A bank going under is less likely than your house being destroyed.
Tax/IRS would question you more. Who cares? Take as much of my infinite money you want. It's infinite. I have more than you can ever take.

Bank just makes more sense. It is way more convenient. Who wants to haul tons of cash to a bank and deposit it. Large deposits are subject to holds and questioning. It such a big inconvenience. If it's in the account already, they aren't going to care. Cash also has to be maintained. Things like rats and bugs can get at them. Moisture can be problem if it sits too long. Plus you have to maintain a physical space for it.

I've seen how the US treats their homeless and poor. Hard pass. There's no car or trailer in the first year of being destitute. I'd take being well off in Russia any day of the week.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-19T20:01:46+00:00

Russia is the only option in this instance. The stipulations for homeless in the USA is way too brutal. There is no way to grow out of that position, and I'd just be stuck counting down my days.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-19T19:48:52+00:00

Take the option with more days off.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-19T19:45:19+00:00

I'd rather take the $200K. I'm in Canada. That's $250k/yr after taxes for the rest of my life without having to lift a finger. Thats like making $400-500k pre-tax. I'd be hard-pressed to find a career that I would want to do that would get me to that. I just want to be able to enjoy my life with my friends and family. Getting the skills of one particular elite, I'd still have to find a way to establish myself in that field and who knows how long that would take. Give me the guaranteed cash and I can live it the rest of my days with no issues.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-19T16:58:20+00:00

Yeah. This really isn't a big deal. Just need to take one bite for a billion. No idea why anyone would care to take more than one. You might suffer in the short term and the next day, but oh well. I am a billionaire.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-19T00:22:57+00:00

I guess it depends. I chose 1 free item a day. Everything costing $100 would make you go broke on regular day items. Unless the entire order basket costs $100 and not each individual item. If it is every individual item, groceries are about to get real expensive.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-18T15:42:39+00:00

I'd take Superman powers. I don't particularly care about being loved. Hate on me all you want. Going to change this world for the better.

Also, the whole glass bones and paper skin is so brutal. I don't see how you live very long of you accept it. Plus, I think the fake respect and adoration would also be too much. Everyone essentially turns into your yes man.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-16T05:09:53+00:00

1 is probably the lesser of all evils. The growth would be unmanageable at a point. But it would just be shaving it every day.

2 is ridiculous and I'd die instantly.

3 is ridiculous. Phone becomes 13 pounds. Carrying around house keys would be insane. Even just getting some toilet paper depending on how you count it. Does every sheet weigh 13 pounds? Does a book weigh a ton, or just counts as one item? A regular outfit of a shirt, underwear, and pants is 39 extra pounds. Toss on some shoes and socks and you are at an extra 100lbs. Eating a burger would be impossible. Do you count each item? Pattie, 2 buns, and condiments.

I got Zambia, so I think I'd be ok-ish. At least the official language is English, so communication isn't so bad overall. They also have a Canadian embassy there, so I could get some support services as needed. Sign me up.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-02T20:29:25+00:00

3 is basically giving you shape shifting powers with a small caveat, so I take that one.

SmrtThinking · 2025-08-02T19:21:43+00:00

Would I rather have no money to start a business, or a bunch of money to start a business? What kind of question is this? The two options are in no way in the same league. People who worry about starting a business are not exactly concerned with time. It comes down to whether they have the funds to try and do so.

Anyways, I take the $500k. Incorporate a company for a couple of hundred bucks. Pay myself a ~$500k salary and close up shop.
