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.


Well you have to account for the fact that your tolerance against that pain will increase. Also your nerve endings will get used to the kick so after a while it will be a bit of an inconvenience but not that bad at all.

For everyone who thinks i'm just blabbering i would suggest watching this video

I would easily take the money. Three times a day is less pain than having to work and losing my spare time to that.

I'd ez take that deal wtf. That pain is nothing compared to the pain of working hard your whole life to make nowhere near that much money.
Talk not to me of blasphemy, man; I'd strike the sun if it insulted me.

This has derailed into "what can i do to avoid it" and "i would buy balls of steel" etc. The OP clearly indicates that you will feel pain from it, twice each day. But, you will not die from it, with that kind of money making the right countermeasures would pose no problem ( i.e. get someone to drive you around). And you will, no matter what, get accustomed to it in some way or another, but the pain will still be there.

No what i have not seen mentioned yet is the fact that you will be that guy, that everyone knows about due to the overwordly factor in it all, that get kicked in the balls every day. Now if you spent all the money on hookers and coke, well, you would end up like a clown celebrity of some kind. But, if you on the other hand spent the money on saving children from hunger, restoring villages after earthquakes, cancer-research etc., you would effectively become the worlds greatest hero. Hell, i can even see the Jesus metaphors popping up already, he that takes the pain in the groin to save the world from it`s troubles.

I`d take the money, save the world, get insta worldfame and herostatus, and be pretty convinced its all worth a kick or two to the balls every day!

Vains post suggests you literally would not feel it after a couple years. At all. Its not like youre being kicked in the balls by an mma heavyweight who does leg extensions with a thousand pounds worth of free weights.

I believe this would be possible if there is a super rich person with a "ball-kicking" fetisch.
To prevent permanent damage he send you to the best doctors.
He still would get a better deal, there are people who would get kicked for around 300$ a kick or even less.
Well lets see:

I dont know if it matters that you will be kicked 3 times a day and for the rest of your life.


I voted on 10k, and I still support my statement.
Regardless you get 9k per kick or the 500mil at once, I can ensure you that it wont take anythign more than 3 kicks to be able to afford a top notch sex change surgery. And once its done. HELLS YEAH BABY, FREE MONEY!
PS: Id rather be a rich chick than a poor guy. LOL

I think if you know you're gonna experience a certain amount of pain daily and it will not actually hurt you it isn't as bad as the idea of the hurt actually being bad for you.

At the same time it might make your life that much worse that the money loses its value.. It comes down to the money cannot create happiness idea. How much of a deal getting kicked in the balls is on a daily basis I don't think anyone can judge.

Of course not. Your balls would be in agony 24/7...

And no Permanent damage means that you WON'T become more numb to the pain, as that IS A FORM OF DAMAGE.

One kick makes them sore for the day. The second kick hurts 10 times as much as the first because they're already sensitive. The 3rd sets you up for a sleepless night of pain.

Honestly, when you got to the end of your short life you would look back and say "I wish I didn't get kicked in the balls constantly throughout my life...". The money won't stop you dying and 24 hours in a day and night is an awfully short amount of time to spend it.

"No what i have not seen mentioned yet is the fact that you will be that guy, that everyone knows about due to the overwordly factor in it all, that get kicked in the balls every day. Now if you spent all the money on hookers and coke, well, you would end up like a clown celebrity of some kind.

He clearly said in the OP that the kicker is invisible. You think that if you announced "hey everyone, im being kicked in the balls by an imaginary person and thats why I have 500mil" they would believe you?
Tears soaks each hand the dealer's dealt. But time taught me how to see every second as heaven even when they're perfectly disguised as hell.

im sure drowning in prostitutes and drugs would be enough to take my mind off the pain
