Love or Money

Dustaz · 28-03-2002 2:44pm #1

Let me share a drunken pub question with yis..

Heres your choice, You will be given 10 million Euros, but you will never be in love (again) in your life. Do you take the money?

As an added incentive, you will have the option of getting a Men In Black style memory wipe to blank out any recollections of being in love if youve already been there.

So, in short you can either take your chances and look for love (no guarentees) or take enough money that youll never need to worry about money for the rest of your life, but you will never fall in love.

Forget the money....or youll die a sad and lonely death

Beruthiel · 28-03-2002 3:05pm

At which point he will shag you, ask you to marry him and then take half of your fortune when he divorces you. You lose. Men are far more interested in getting the money for themselves as opposed to only marrying into money.

Enygma · 28-03-2002 3:24pm

If you opt for love then you keep your chances of getting 10 million yoyo's the same as it ever was. Thus your still in with a pretty good chance of attaining both. The two aren't mutually exclusive.
So, mathematically, you have to go for love

eddhorse · 28-03-2002 3:48pm

feck it ill take the money cos i a lonely b*****d at the moment anyways so it would be an improvement and ur telling me i cant fall in love with a hooker well ill try my best:p

shinobi · 28-03-2002 3:56pm

Show me the money.....I may never be in love...but money talks and nobody mentioned NO Lust.....It'd be just like being Eddie Irvine

and ya don't think I know that Seamus??? lol
there's two chances of me ever going down that marriage road, no flies on me, and if there are, they're paying rent!!

Mills · 28-03-2002 4:51pm

Hmmmm, I wouldn't take the money........ it'd allow you to do all sorts of things but ultimately I think life without even the prospect of falling in love would be empty.

azezil · 28-03-2002 4:54pm

show me the money!!

feck love for that much money i'd do without, or just pay someone to love me!

cournioni · 28-03-2002 4:58pm

No love = No happiness
Money = Temporary happiness

Conclusion = **** the money, I'll take the love.

beardedchicken · 28-03-2002 5:06pm

but if money = temporary happiness
lots of money = lots of moments of temporary happiness, which add up to permanent happiness!!

flyz · 28-03-2002 5:26pm

I'd do without the money,

If you're without love then you'll turn into a auld scrooge

Bard · 28-03-2002 5:34pm

love wins any day.

This is exactly what i was thinking!:eek: Bard please remove yourself from my brain ye donabatian scum you!:)

smiles · 28-03-2002 9:01pm

Love.

It's rather annoying at times... but the idea of never being in love again.... well its not worth the money!

<< Fio >>

Good god, a life without love? Fup that shít. Love is the highest state of happiness a human can have. No amount of cash can buy that.

Qualm · 28-03-2002 10:05pm

Im with you ampy, show me the love anyday. Plus, good point made by enygma, one could have both if you went for the love option.
At the end of the day, youd be losing you family and friends and your futurey husband (or wifey) and have only 10 million euro, which could dissapear all too easily.

Interesting how its mainly the lads who are going for the no love, all money option, so long as they have their s3x, theyre happy! heh, i cuda told ya that for nowt!

Puck · 28-03-2002 10:26pm

There isn't enough money in the world! And if there was I still wouldn't take it!

I'm a hopeless romantic and scared ****less of ending up a lonely old git!

Dustaz · 29-03-2002 1:12am

Yeh, i forgot about polls till after i posted, i think i may have supressed the memory of them since i dont think ive ever seen a worthwhile one

As to my own opinion, as someone said, there isnt enough money in the world

daftbegger · 29-03-2002 9:34am

We only fall in love to get shags on tap anyway!!

ah now, no need for that

The Donabatian scum are our next door neighbours (on our right)

... we're NICE people!

Hobbes · 29-03-2002 1:17pm

Is this money cash?

Love is fleeting... Inland revenue is for life.

And the greatest level of delusion?

rymus · 30-03-2002 9:27pm

I'll take love please..

"I dont care too much for money, money cant buy me love"

I say that even tho at the moment I could use the money to perform radical surgery to make me the most beautiful person ever..... now thats progress!

But no... I'd still rather have a bitta love

Give me the money anyday. Money cant make you happy, but at least you'll be comfortable in your misery
