If you were given the chance to kill someone you hate, or anyone you want, would you kill? What if you would receive 10 million from it, would you think again and make the kill? It is ensured that you wont get caught.
I myself am not sure If I could kill someone even If I hated him/her from bottom of my heart. I would start thinking about their family, loved ones. It would become too hard to do. What about some beggar? Would it be easy to kill just one beggar of the street? I don't think it is that simple even if you wouldn't be punished from it and receive 10 million..It doesn't feel that hard for me, but looking someone in the eye while having the idea of killing..oow..so the question is, could YOU do it?

10 millions.. so much money , and you say you will not be able to kill for that money? peopele kill for much less money , people kill for nothing, but for 10 millions i think many of us could do that. Yes i agree with you that you start to think about theyr families, but that will be after some time , for the moment you will not see anything except money ....

Money isn't everything, even if you don't get arrested for it, people might still blame you for being a murderer, wouldn't that bother you? and the money, you got them by killing someone, wouldn't you think that you need to help their family? I would have to think those questions everyday if I did something like that, but it might be true, if the situation comes I wont think anything else than money...that might happen.
Thanks for reply :)

Now the question is, would you be able to spend it, if you answered yes to the question. As for me, I couldn't do it. Kill someone for 10 million dollars. That is alot of money. But I think my value in life is worth much more.

I could not do it no matter how much money I got. It would be on my mind forever and ever and I wouldnt be able to spend my money and be happy at the same time. Besides money runs out and life keeps going on wether your poor or rich and life is beautiful so its not worth it.

I will not kill anyone for money, no matter how the offer is. However, I cannot promise that I will not be killing anyone although of course I am NOT a violent person.
There are cases that we only have few choices. If someone is going to kill me or any member of the family or even a stranger, I will kill him first if I have the chance especially if that killer is really a mad one.
I am speaking of defensing another life, that is.

well, I never had the extremely feeling of wanting to kill somebody. And I know very well that, to me, my own life is much more important than my enemies, if I kill them, the law of the country would kill me, and what is worse, people will blame me of conducting murder or violet. I won't permit such things to happen in my life.
Even if somebody ask me to kill another one for 10 million, I won't do that. because I will have hard time to spend that 10 million. I spend only several thousand a month, that's enough for me now. If I want to have more money, I will earn by doing some decent business, instead of conducting murder.

But if none would blame you for killing? Name of the game ;) I would have hard time spending that 10 million too. I would keep thinking that if the person had family, should i donate some to them. Would it help at all? Murder really isn't the right way to get money.
Thanks for reply :)

I am positive that I will never kill anybody. The only way I will kill someone is by accident, or in self-defense. For money, forget it. No money in this World will make me do such a thing. I consider life a precious gift, that you can not give when you want to someone you want. Therefore there is no way on Earth I will take it from someone just for money.

I would never kill anyone for money and I don't care if the amount is 10 million or more, it wouldn't make a difference to me, and I wouldn't do it. I can't say that I would never ever kill someone. If I were in an emergency situation and if someone were trying to kill my fiance or a member of my family I might kill that person to protect the people I love, but I would never consider doing it for money. It doesn't matter to me that I wouldn't get caught, I know that I wouldn't be able to live with myself after doing something like that.

I could not kill for money because killing is immoral.

It's not a matter of "could I do it." I have practically zero emotion, so I'm perfectly capable of killing another human being, regardless of who they were.
It's more a matter of "why?"
Personally, ten million has no use to me. I don't understand money. I used to hold it in high esteem, but now, I just don't care for it.
And, since I'd have nothing to gain from killing someone ANYWAY (ten mill isn't a gain to me. Once again, I don't understand money), what's the point of it in the first place?
Besides that, money's no comfort when you're rotting in the ground.

Some one else might want to do it for that sum of money.
As for me, it's absolutely : NO !
I don't have the heart and guts to do so. Even that for some one I hate so much. I will live entire of my life in regret, guilt and restless after doing that. Maybe I'll get a stroke, stressed and depression and eventually it will kill me ... LOL :)

I think I cant.I mean,I would be nuts if I do that!
ahaha,that's the silliest thing I would do.A mortal sin.Of course,even if that person is my enemy I wont kill them.It doesn't mean that if I hate them I have to kill them.Even if I would be given millions.That would be to bad,I'm sure my conscience will hunt me forever.Im sure I cant sleep and I would maybe Kill myself too!
Killing someone is too hard,even beggars,even if we dont know them.People have no right to end ones life..
I hope I wont be in that kind of situation.:D

hello rikzal. what a question you have. anyway my answer is NO. i really think no amount of price can be worth it if you will be bothered by a nagging conscience all your life. living a pecacful life because you know you are living a good and decent life and you haven't done anything wrong is priceless. besides no one has a right to claim a life, even if it is just a beggar.
