Yes it does, it's a common occurrence in the real world where money is paramount to many people as illustrated here.

So money is of no importance to you then?

I just love self righteous people.

So long as its earned fairly and squarely with no detriment to anyone else.

You know, basic human qualities.

But it as been earned fairly and squarely. It's part if the game...it's not stolen, it's been offered by the makers of the game so it's part of gameplay.

Pretty much this

The only person who could ever be blamed in this situation imo is Big Brother for offering the money in the first place... though even then, they can't really be "blamed" as such. It's their game, they can do whatever they want to. I'm not going to judge someone as being a terrible person for thinking ahead about their future and accepting their offer.

..it's not to anyone else's detriment anymore than the other housemates that don't walk away with the prize fund, it's being offered a choice and making that choice..that doesn't reflect at all on their 'human qualities'...
