A man with two briefcases approaches you and pulls out two briefcases and a gun. If you dont choose a briefcase, he will pop a cap in your ass lol.


In Briefcase 1, is $5 million dollars, tax-free however if you take this case you will never find your true love. You can still have sex with women and im sure much more presentable women will appear with this amount of money lol but you will never feel true love.

Briefcase 2, contains a photo, the photo is your true love. You will find her contact details also i the case and she will be perfect for you in every way and she will love you in every way. However, by picking this option you can never earn more than $16,000 a year.

Honestly, i think i'd pic option 1. I believe that amount of money could give me more happiness than any woman ever could.

I'd pick the one with the cash.

How does some schmuck packing suitcases know who my true love is?

I'd take both the briefcases and beat him to death with them.

I'd disarm him first with a Winged Horse kick of course.

I would be wary of any deal that guaranteed so much for nothing in return. Seems almost Faustian....

Shoot me instead.....

A briefcase full of cash or the love of my life in poverty, tough choice. Oh wait... a gun?!?

Thanks for telling me about this guy, *heads off to lock my doors* :geek:

I'm not attracted to women, so #1 doesn't hold much appeal for me.

This really doesn't apply to me, as I only date men.

But, if it were rewritten to apply to those who are interested in dating men:

I'd pick briefcase number 1.

Because this guy not only has no way of knowing who my true love may be, he also has no way of keeping me from finding a true love. Besides that, I think there are multiple men in the world with whom I'd be compatible enough to call them my "true love".

So I'd take the money and go do what I wanted, regardless of his ridiculous promises. He'd have to be a rich delusional person who'd decided he had godlike powers.

Maybe I took it too literally as if the briefcases were what was stated and the choices would be absolute.

Money, no true love.
True love, no money.
Get shot......

Kinda like a genie thing. Not based on reality at all, but a puzzle of moral choices.

Too limited?

All you guys are coming up with things I did not see at all.

Well, he is willing to give someone who he can oh-so callously murder 5 million dollars. Maybe he is in charge of a secret group of spies that know everything about everyone. And this man and his group of spies own a secret wiki that document everything about the person. He must also have some government influence if he is somehow able to prevent you from earning more than a set amount of money per year, or even get away with murder if need be.

On topic, I'd probably choose the second one. Sure, 5 million dollars sounds amazing, but I doubt I'd be responsible with that much. And plus the whole "never earn more than $16,000 a year" caveat only applies to you, not the person depicted in the photograph. So they can earn more than you can.

I would probably wet my pants and go into a catatonic shutdown.

That's a tough one, as I've already met the man of my dreams. All we need between us is millions of pounds.

But I think this thread is aimed at men. Or lesbians. In America.
