How much money would you have to be offered to forget a loved ones' death?
Or to kill them with your own hands?

Or some stranger that you will never know?

I don't think I could ever think of a price for those deals. Not something I'd happily do for a price.

Or some stranger that you will never know?

This I think I could do. It'd have be a high enough cost though to fund my kill. I don't want to kill a guy and then get caught because I couldn't afford a decent ski mask or something.

5 dollars.

No, that's the price for a longlongtime during the Vietnam war. And it was ONLY 5 dollars

Money can't delete your memory, how am I supposed to forget someone depending on how much money I get? This is madness.

I don't remember the exact statistic, but it was said that the government valued human life at 44 dollars and something-cents.

Sounds about right

The only time I would feel I would be able to kill someone, is if they did something horrible to someone else and I was there to witness it. Such as murdering someone else. And even then, I may just try to stop them and call the cops.

But for a price, I could probably kill someone that deserved it. Maybe. I would probably struggle with the decision.

As for killing a loved one or a random stranger? No amount of money would be enough.

To forget?.. What? How... Explain this.

Or to kill them with your own hands?

No amount for this. Not as in I'd do it for free. But I'd never hurt them. Let alone kill them.

Or some stranger that you will never know?

Still no. Unless I hated them more than I've ever hated someone before. Then like $100k?

In a case of like hospital fuckup, and only if it was my mom. (for reasons not worth going into detail for, to long a rant to bother) I'd settle for about 50k, for me, and each of my remaining family. not 50k for us all, not 50 for EACH of us :D

My dad I'd sue em for every penny, and same with my brother.

Doesn't interest me

Or to kill them with your own hands?

Why would I kill a loved one if I love them?

Or some stranger that you will never know?

I would never snuff someone out that didn't have it coming to them because for the fact I wouldn't want to be killed by some pathetic mug with a gun that choose me to be his victim of opportunity.
Random killings should be left to serial killers that lust for blood not bitches that want to vent their frustrations on good people.

I suppose I could do the forgetting because that would actually be a blessing. After proper mourning I would take the money and forget it all. I guess.

Personal Motto: I am awesome and that's putting it modestly

I'd never kill a loved one but the price on a stranger would entirely depend on if the monetary gain is worth the risk and the type of person I'd have to kill i.e. a good family man, no I'd the guy who wants me to kill him. Evil people who cause misery for good people, I'd gladly do it.

Life is too valuable to be measured in dollars and cents. Money is eventually spent, and possessions are forgotten. Lifelong bonds, memories, and times shared do not.
