In fifty years of work at a 9-5 job, you'll be forced to work over one hundred thousand hours, assuming you work 260 work days a year as you would as an American. Just think about that for a while. One hundred thousand. Hours. This isn't even including time spent commuting or taking care of any number of chores (lawn, house, bills, taxes, law, health, investments, family) that you could technically pay others to handle. You could condemn yourself to a life of dull drudgery, or you could accept intermittent attacks of severe pain and then spend those tens of thousands of hours doing whatever the hell you feel like. For the rest of your life. This isn't even considering whatever fancy material possessions you could gain, because those are irrelevant compared to the ultimate treasure of freedom. Apparently many people value the comfort of their balls more than time and free will. | ||

Having to do work. Massive kick in the balls that together with commuting consumes about 12 hours of my day. Seriously, a massive groin kick takes like.... 5.... max 20 mins (worst possible case scenario) to recover fully from. I mean.... that's like 60 mins max of excruciating pain each day to make up for the 12 hours I have to spend in mild pain. SO WORTH IT!!!!! Bring the $500M. I'll sign the deal! | ||

I'll sign the deal! and don't forget that (no offense meant) you aren't going to make $500,000,000 working 9-5 unless you're a super high roller anyway. i'm pretty sure that you would learn to take the pain after like a year max and since there is no permanent damage this is such a good deal. | ||

You'll get used to it. Just flinch, recover, and continue with your day. Not that bad really. | ||

this is non negitiable, meaning once you say yes, the kicks are permanemt and forever, so making the correct decision is important There's several more factors we have to consider here: - Will we develop some sort of resistance to it over time, or is it more like someone uploading some information to your brain that tells it to feel pain in the balls - Is the pain really a problem? Will it affect your life significantly in any way shape or form? Will it prevent intimate relationships form working? - Is money or lack of money important? If you have unlimited funds, will your life become significantly better? I mean sure you can get a yaght and a lanbourghini and a nice house, but do you really need those things to be happy or accomplish your meaning in life? Does money alone solve a lot of your problems? I think either choice you make won't have that big of a difference in your life assuming you have regular goals such as accomplish shit and start a family. It will make financial problems easier, but I don't think that's a big deal. Yes I won't have to work ever again, but I'm eventually going to do some sort of mental work because I can't just party and drink 24/7. And if Im going to do work, then why do I need money? I can just find a job that's just as rewarding and it gets me enough money to survive. Also if your a scientist or something similar I think a yes is a no-brainer, because u can do some fun stuff with the money, such as make another LHC or go to space or something. 500 million is a lot of money. Or maybe ill have some fun with the money like pay people to make crazy shit like a time travel machine or anti gravity devices or something else. For me, I think I'd have to think about it some more, but eventually I'll probably say no because I have no need for excessive amounts of money in my life in the first place. | ||

If you get the $500million up front, it's a really easy decision, because the rest of your life you can spend having so much fun that it easily outweighs the inconvenience of the ball-kicking, which you would probably get used to after a few years. Completely agreed. Plus there's a trick to get rid of the stomach pain that occurs afterward. Lay on your back and have somebody push your knees into your chest. Sounds weird but the pain goes away instantly. I'd probably just hire somebody to do this for me  | ||
