Eternal life or endless money?

it does not make sense at all, if you were able to live eternal life you would become so clever that you would be the richest person on earth. your knowledge would be so vast that giving just a single lesson in life would cost a fortune....see what I mean. that's what i choose

unless you were retarded (mentally handicap) to start with

Eternal life. I'd join the military and be put to good use somehow, surely they'd have some role for an immortal that stays at their physical peak and can regenerate themselves. I'd end up being an explorer of new worlds, I'd be internationally renowned. I wouldn't need a penny of my own to be happy doing that. That's what I would want someone else to do, so that's what I'd do myself.

Although, you have to define "endless money". Where does it come from? And what can I do with it? Write off all 3rd world debts? Infinitely fund charity organisations like unicef? Give as much as I like to anyone I wish? Turn Madagascar into the number one world superpower?

Id definitely take endless money, as with the cash, i would spend all my life that I had making the most of it. I wouldnt go to work, I'd do everything I have ever wanted to do and just live every day like it was my last. Of course the material things would be great, but to see the world travelling would be much better than to just exist. I see people who just exist everyday.

It's not supposed to be a bullet proof contract stop trying to get the best of both worlds! ... the concept is endless money or endless life .

Anyway, for those who are interested in the concept and what it says about human nature (and why I started the thread/poll), is that it is a cold fact most people would choose endless money ...

One can also conclude that humans feel money is more important than life itself ... yes, those that have said money are effectively choosing money over life ... you would trade a few* years of life being extremely wealthy for life itself ... what does that say about 'us'?!?

*even if you lived to be 110, it is still 'few' compared to eternal!!

ah yes, but it all depends upon what you perceive to be "life". To me, Life isnt about existing, going day by day just scraping by. Life is about feeling alive and doing something which makes you feel good. To me that is learning, seeing and getting an adrenaline buzz from the activity which I am doing at that time.

Who honestly wants to live forever when you would see all your family & friends die?

Me, but obviously not so that I would see that.
All I'm saying is that you don't need money to lead a fulfilling and satisfying life that can make a difference, ESPECIALLY if you have a "super power" like immortality and invulnerability.

Guess which lyric I'm thinking of...

[phil24_7]

I'll take the money, I have no interest in living forever, would rather live my life hard and fast!!

Jesus offers eternal life.

That's what I'm plumping for

Voted for life then had a think. Money please!
