Judging by the majority of replies in this thread, and I'm assuming around the world, you may as well press it, cause that person would probably do the same in your situation.

I guess you seen the Movie 'The Box' too then?

I saw it today and its the excact same as this only instead of a close friend dieing its a complete stranger.

Quite frankly if it was a complete stranger that was dieing if I pressed it I wouldnt give to ****s, because I couldnt care what happens to anyone else as long as I have what I want.

But if its my Family/Partner/Friend then I would care alot and wouldnt press it.
Money isnt everything.

money CAN buy happiness - it really depends what sort of happiness you want at the time.

Lol, so money isn't everything and yet you'd kill for it. I shudder to think what you'd do for something that did mean everything to you.

With an attitude like that - if you ever find yourself in trouble - I hope no stranger ever comes to help you. You wouldn't be worth the trouble!

So ****, why should I care if a stranger dies?

People die every day, infact oh there goes another one.
In the space of time it takes you to read this post 11 people will die in Africa, Dont really care and neither should you.

You have a nice life.
I have a nice life.
We all hae a nice life, and of course life can always be made better so if I was given the Oppertunity to get this much cash just to have another African or any stranger for that matter die, I wouldnt care.

And Neither would you.

"just to have another African or any stranger for the matter die"

Its not that big a deal, as in I wouldnt kill my family or anything for money.

But if it was someone I didnt know then yeah whatever its free cash so its great

What, you may want to help the poor and needy but I couldnt care less about them.

Not my problem are they.
I hate in school where they always ask to donate money and food to Hobos and stuff and like poor kids, I feel like shouting to the teacher **** because my family work hard to get food and money for our family, so why should I give up my money for some poor people.

And after all, it's only a 1/10,000 chance so I could push it plenty if times before someone I love dies.

And to people who say money isn't everything, go and tell that to a blue collar worker who kills his ass off to earn barely £1000 per month. You'll see what he tells you.

To me, money is everything. It might not buy love, yet you feel much better when you have money OR if money doesn't buy happiness, then give it to me, I want to be unhappy.

Money won't buy you happiness if you're genuinely unhappy though,if you have no friends or a partner or whatever. If you're happy anyways,money will greatly increase your happiness,lol!

[Princess]

Oh and I couldn't push the button,no way.

[Ramsay]

id push it once

Honestly, I'm not going to begin to open up a discussion with you cuz you're driving me mental with each and every line you type. First tip for you would be to study a little history even before we attempt to debate anything else.

[Enid]

You're harsh Patrick, but you're honest. I commend that.

[Vicky.]

If a member of my family may die, I would probably push it once, maybe twice with odds of 1/10000

If it was a stranger, probably more, maybe 5 or so.

If the odds of MYSELF dying were 1/10000 I would push it about 10 times. My life would be a thousand times better if I didnt die and the odds of me ending it would only be 1/1000...plus its a quick and painless death...better than the death I may have whenever otherwise.

[30stone]

Friends and relatives - No way would i go near it.

Random person... like 5 times make sure all family are nice and secure..

[InOne]

People do crazy things over money. No matter what anyone says it does changes people. People have done worse over less amounts so I doubt many people would have a problem pushing it.

That is actually the smartest thing you've ever said.
