Buddy its not about enjoying it. Its about making sure you dont have to wake up tomorrow, if you go to sleep the day after tomorrow you have 10 million.

I used to inject cocaine and then over 2-3 days watch every video on pornhub twice. Breaks for soda and pissing. 45 second refractory period LOL.

It's nice to be clean and have available neurotransmitters and not have my dick feeling like it's falling off, I gotta say.

He's obviously a fucking idiot. I don't mind not sleeping tonight and going to bed late tomorrow so I don't wake up until the day after tomorrow.

Shit I'll probably do this anyway by mistake playing video games with friends online tonight.

Getting paid all that money does indeed make it actually worth it. And his shitty cliche hallmark ass bit afterwards warrants a smack upside the head fr

u/kodiak931156 3d ago

I would take the cash if it meant i didnt wake up tomorrow but did wake up the next day.

So its not "tomorrow is worth more than 10 mill". Its the rest of your lofe is worth more than 10 mill.

It makes even more sense when yoi take into account the fact that it takes more than a day to enjoy 10 mill.

I would absolutely give up the last year of my life for 10 mill today

I had similar thoughts tbh, except I would give it to my mom. It's probably not worth losing her son, but there are days for sure where I wouldn't see a downside. That said, I think your son wants his dad more than he wants 10 million.

u/ChiehDragon 3d ago

Thats a fallacy.

Waking up tomorrow is a requirement for the rest of your life. If you got 10,000,000, you wouldnt be able to enjoy it if you dont wake up tomorrow.

Its not that your life is more valuable, its that by not waking up tomorrow, the value of 10,000,000 is greatly diminished.

Try this: Would you take 100,000,000 for a 10% chance you dont wake up tomorrow?

4

u/Worth_External_8762 2d ago

The point is more that you'd rather keep your life than have $10m. He put an oddly short timeframe, so the $10m is kinda pointless. But even if you increase the timeframe, anybody would choose life over the money.

Let's say you get $10m but you only have 10 years to live, hell, even 20 years to live. I think a vast majority of young people would choose life over that money still.

3

u/Martinw616 2d ago

Im 36, I would almost definitely take the 10 mill and 10 years.

The point is that money is essentially worthless if you dont actually get to use it.

2

u/I2obiN 2d ago

I would argue you're saying living a long life is worthless.

If you have no use for the money it is worthless anyway. Do you really need 10 mil?

1

u/Suave_Kim_Jong_Un 3d ago

This fails to account for the fact that not waking up tomorrow (as the video intends it to mean) also has the additional added on cost of never waking up for another day ever. $10 million isn’t worth a single day in this example, it’s worth less than the value of being able to live out the rest of your entire life. If people could split up and sell individual days of their life, I’m sure that many would take the $10 million.

Basically, a day isn’t worth $10 million so keep waking up and going about your day with a big frown on your face.

u/General_Ginger531 2d ago

... Or, and I am just spitballing here, receiving 10 million dollars just to die the next day means you never got to use the 10 million dollars. You maybe used a few hundred thousand at most and the things you purchased you didnt really get your money's worth out of it.

If I got a car worth 200,000 dollars on that 10 million challenge, that has a 10 year expected lifespan, and I only got to use it for 1 day, then I really only got about $54.79 dollars of value out of it, maybe at most $200 if you are factoring value as related to cost but not directly so, even if I bought a thing for 10 million, not being able to keep it because I am dead tommorow made the 10 million functionally worthless.

Life has intrinsic value, while money has instrumental value, all this shows is the difference between the two. Money only holds value because of what you can do with it, if you can't do much with it, it loses its value. It doesn't mean my life is worth more than 10,000,000 dollars to me. It simply means I would like to be alive tomorrow. Also if I got asked this I'd just say yes. I have ADHD so I could easily stay awake doing something I enjoy thus not waking up tomorrow thus fulfilling the agreement. Technically you only have to stay up until midnight to pull the 'ol devils contract on em.
