What Would You Do?

[kirklancaster]

Just a little 'What If?' quiz but I want STRAIGHT answers :laugh:

Q.You are deeply asleep in bed alone and are gently awakened by an Alien being. He informs you that he is giving you a choice between two gifts:

a) 10 Million Pounds to keep for yourself, or;
b) a Cure for Cancer to benefit ALL mankind.

which would you REALLY choose? And WHY?

WARNING - I possess a Patented B.S Detector. :hee:

[Parmy]

Take the cure....sell it for 10 times the amount offered.

[Smithy]

I’d be the person that cured cancer, pretty sure I’d earn more than 10 million :hee:

[Ammi]

...cancer cure...without any momentary doubt whatsoever....

[RileyH]

I want to say I'd take the cancer cure and I know that's the right answer but honestly I would probably be greedy and take the 10 million

[thesheriff443]

Tell him/her come back in th morning.

[Parmy]

Did michael mcintyre inspire this thread?

[Cherie]

cancer cure, as the likelihood of me taking 10 mil and then dying of cancer would be a real possibility

[thesheriff443]

Other members asking for things instead of the money.

:laugh: No actually - YOU did Parmy, when you were involved in the 'sacrifice yourself to save a refugee child from drowning' conversation the other day.

It had me wondering about Self or Selfless choices.

[AnnieK]

Cancer cure

[Withano]

Get up off your feet and stop making tired excuses

That was an easy one though..for people who have witnessed cancer first hand anyway.

[Mystic Mock]

I'd probably go with curing Cancer as I wouldn't want myself or my friends and family to suffer with the disease.

[thesheriff443]

:laugh2: Hog will be out for your blood now Sheriff. :hee:

He just ain't got the material.

[Babayaro.]

Cure for cancer then I'd knock the alien out and sell it to the FBI or whatever for like a billion bucks

[Cal.]

Cure for cancer obviously. Only a psychopath would take A.

[Niamh.]

would have to be cancer

[kirklancaster]

:laugh: That's MY boy.

[Crimson Dynamo]

mankind

man

kind


:hee:


in you face women


id take the cash and get a new camera and a lot of sweets

[montblanc]

obviously cure for cancer as it would save a lot of people’s lives and eliminate one of the many horrible ways to die

[JerseyWins]

The cure for cancer even if I couldn't get money for it. And honestly the main reason would be I'd be too worried that karma would get me & then either myself or others that I'm close to would end up dying of cancer. :worry:

[Niamh.]

Well the likely hood is really strong that you or someone you love will get cancer in the future and you'd have to live with knowing you could have stopped it

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

cancer cure

[Natalie.]

Cure for cancer

[Amy Jade]

100% the cure for cancer and if I had any say it would be free for everyone.

[kirklancaster]

Ever-The-Joker L.T. apart, I see NO lies on this thread. It shows what caring people you all really are.

I definitely would opt for the Cancer Cure too - it is the most HATEFULLY DESTRUCTIVE disease there is.

[smudgie]

The cancer cure.:sad:

[user104658]

The cure and not even for selfless reasons; there's a very good chance for every person asked this question, they will themselves get cancer or have someone they love get cancer. When that happens, most people would then give every penny of that 10 million for a cure, but it would be too late. Cancer cure is the ONLY logical answer here.

How about, though... you can either take £100 million for yourself, OR you can end world poverty and have everyone in the world given the means to get by reasonably well... but you get nothing extra for yourself. :think:

[Epic.]

I’d be the person that cured cancer, pretty sure I’d earn more than 10 million :hee:

This pretty much

[Kizzy]

Cure but not tell anyone I don't wan pharma killing me and burning my office to the ground.

[_Tom_]

Take the cure. Imagine taking the 10 mil and then you or a loved one get diagnosed for cancer later in life :eyes:

[Gstar]

Take the money. There’s already a cure for cancer out there

[thesheriff443]

In all seriousness, its more plausible that cancer will be cured than an alien waking you up to give you the cure.

[thesheriff443]

And a side note, humans spend more money on developing and building weapons to kill than they do in finding a cancer cure.

[Crimson Dynamo]

i would ask the alien if they had anything to stop humans being born rather than fix the other end as that is more of a problem



also i would ask if he had any sisters with big tentacles

:drool:

They would hardly come to you!, with you in your onesie and covered in dribble

[waterhog]

cure

[Tozzie]

without a moments hesitation, a cancer cure. I think most would say that because just about everyone knows someone who has been affected by cancer at some point. My sister included God rest her soul

[Parmy]

They would hardly come to you!, with you in your onesie and covered in dribble

That might do it for them.

[Maru]

b because option a wouldn't protect my sorry ass from freaking Cancer... :laugh: And also because it would save so many lives... I think a lot of people would make that choice, because if someone didn't have a loved one who was affected by it, chances are they know someone who has..

[Kazanne]

I did have to think about this but the cancer cure came out on top for me as we have all lost so many people to cancer,just last year, I lost a friend to bowel cancer , she was only 37 and has a 4year old boy, so for me ,although the money was very tempting and could set my family up for life it wont stop them getting this horrid disease.
