Eternal life or endless money?
 
Ok, given the choice, would you rather have eternal life* or endless money (but mortal).

*The restriction with eternal life is that you must always live it as poor ... well ok, not poor, but you can never have more than enough to just get buy ...

What do you choose and why? ... I think it is a toughy ...

ooooooooh. well some of the best things in life do come free. Of course bikes don't fall into this catagory, unless you are a little thieving sh*t. its a tough one.

Well, i get by quite happily on a research grant which is pretty minimal and still have fun. i choose eternal life, so I can throw my ?500 hack on bald tyres about without fear of death! Plus I could save money by not buying alid and leathers as I am invincible!

Eternal life so that my studying of The Holy Bible can continue forever.

Money.

The lad I'm sat next to said life. But what happens after world war 3, when everyone else on the planet is dead? His response: I'd be happy, I don't like people!

No, poorer than that ... just enough to clothe and feed yourself, no luxuries at all (like a £500 nail, that is still a luxury! ;)), you are literally existing money wise, you will never go hungry or cold, but just existing ... that is it ...

Ah well in tha case, I want to change my response. That sounds similar to being in a coma - alive but with no real LIFE. I chosse the money then. Please make cheques payable to...

define "eternal life"

what happens at the big crunch?

What happens if you lose an arm? Can you be killed? Decapitated etc.

Or is it a ground hog day scenario?
