Anyone who would pass up the money has not had to work two jobs just to stay barely at the poverty line. A person who has actually had to worry about their next month's rent, food, or gas wouldn't even hesitate on this decision.

Three swift kicks to the nether regions for a life time of never having to worry about my financial situation? Not to even mention the amount of philanthropy you could do in the world with that kind of money. If you invested properly, you could essentially take care of your entire family for generations to come.

*sigh* I don't know what is wrong with everyone who would pass that money up. I work like 60 hours a week to make ~$28k/year... I would get kicked in the balls ten or more times a day to have that kind of financial security.

imagine 5 years after the fact. even though 500mil isn't that much, say you've done and bought everything you could ever desire. you've run out of changes you can make to make your life better.

I voted yes, but I don't have balls so that might be cheating :x

I'm pretty sure most people are able enough to earn enough money to not experience hunger pains...

Most people who have a solid stable income would probably say no (and likely enjoy their job). They're comfortable as it is. Some extra change to buy some luxurious items to get randomly kicked 3 times in the balls a day? That is a lifetime's worth of anxiety. And for extra money for a decent but humble life is not worth it.

I think i'd say yes just for the hell of it, and see if i can do like these guys on sportscience and become so good at being kicked in the nuts that it would barely affect me. That's incredibly useless but i find the idea so freaking amazing. Or i might say no because, seriously taking money for being kicked in the nuts, it's not exactly whoring myself but ... I don't know, it's not exactly something you " earned " at the same time, well yes you've earned it but by being kicked in the nuts so it's not like you've done anything ...

In analyzing this hypothetical situation, you have to take into account how many people actually have $500,000,000. Many people argued that it isn't "enough these days." But, on average, people with a undergraduate education accumulate $1.2 million over the course of their entire life. And when I say accumulate, I am not implying a "nest egg" or $1+ million dollars in savings. That sum just signifies how much they have made over the course of their life, plus assets (i.e. a house).

Therefore, I would gladly get kicked in the balls -- with the guarantee that there will be no damage inflicted upon them -- three times per day to get $500,000,000. It's a no brainer. Opportunities can be endless, if you play your cards right - so to speak.

I would definetly take the money.

Pain is just some info in your brain, its a mechanism thats tells us when were injured and tries to keep us away from such because it doesnt feel good.

Now if its not actually permanent damage, then all it is is some Info in your brain, thats not bad at all, the only one labeling it bad is you. On top of that, as people said, you would get used to it.

Personally, i find it interesting if you experience pain altho knowing it wont leave damage. The burning feeling of aftershave for example, love it.

I'd do it. You'd eventually grow accustomed to it. Would suck if it came durin' the middle of sex or somethin', but you'd eventually grow numb of the feelin'...
