If i desperately need that money probably i will. There are some people who do kidnapping for money less than $1 million and they do it regularly. It make me damn sick why they never be caught by the authority or punish by God somehow. In fact they have better life then we do

There are many ridiculous thing happening in the world. One of it, people are willing to kill for a price much lesser than 1 million USD. The kidnappers are asking for ransom which is comparatively low for the risk they bear. I do not agree that they are not going to receive the punishment. It's just the matter of time before they meet their judgement. Thanks for your response frontier2002!

The point is i've once into this kind of situation i just want to express my vengeance how i feel. The problem with of those people who do this kind of dirty criminal usually make friends with the highest authority and they never got caught for whatever bad deeds they do. I am hurt and have bitter feelings of whatever happens to me till these days

Robing will get you killed instead of let you killing anyone. But nowadays, i doubt robbing could hardly earn you 1 million in 1 shot. But you need to be smart LOL. Counterfeit is easier...

Glad to know that you won't kill a person. It's wrong, no matter how high the reward is. It's normal that we all human are greedy. But we should always discipline ourselves and aware of the limit. Not to let greed deviate our virtue. Thanks for your response Athrun_9738!

You are right. Hit man can be a very lucrative profession. I watched that movie too, it's hilarous! Both of them are hired to kill each other

i won't. this might be easier said than done but honestly, i really wont do it. i could earn $1M in different ways, but to kill anyone, no way. i know myself pretty well and im grounded with good principles and convictions. just because its a good amount doesnt mean i'll do it. i might just thank for the offer

Makoy, since you could earn money easily, then you should do more charity to minimize poverty, then there would be less people need to kill other people for money. Thanks for your response!

Hmmm...that means, you are willing to kill? Well, this is just a question to test the mind set. Your questions lead to more possibilities, and more interesting debatable scenario . I can only say, the reward in the form of the one million is valid. (base on this assumption, then only the next scenario could be further discussed) The question of who is to be killed is more interesting. Will you still kill if the person is an innocent person or who you do not know all this while?

Yup, I would still kill coz i am in a really killing mood. And what fun I would have to outlive all my enemies although I would have to spend the rest of my life in jail. Wow, I sure sound bloodthirsty don't I? Frankly, I had no idea you were so serious and were conducting a psychological test or something. If I knew you were, I would have behaved myself. Today, my dog almost destroyed my banana plant, and in a fit of rage, I twisted its ears. The dog is fine now and has made her peace with me, but I am still suffering from an inflated conscience. So, you see, with such a conscience, I can't really kill. It is a classic case of "flesh is willing but spirit is weak." LOL So where are the million dollars? I wonder if you have even a thousand dollars? LOL Wish you happy mylotting

For me, huge amount of MONEY is not that important so i won`t kill anyone especially if that money is not really mine. But if 1 million USD is supposed to be used for saving 2 lives then two people rob me, maybe it is better to kill the two holdapers. But no, and i can`t. That is what i want to do but i have no right to kill.

What you said is right. We have no right to kill. Therefore, no matter how much the price is, we shouldn't kill for our greed, especially those innocent people. But in the real world, ugly killing just takes place sometimes, even at much lower price, driven by greed, hatred or other conflict. Thanks for your response! (again :))

Right and well said. It will do us much good to use such courage on something else. We might be able to make more than one million with strong determination Killing for money won't take us anyway. Besides, it's bad deed and we will receive our punishment sooner or later base on law of causality. Thanks for your response!

Well I can see you are a kind person, who won't even hurt an animal. Besides, you insist not to kill even you are offered a million dollar reward. Good to know that. Money is not the ultimate that we want. What we human final end point is happiness and not the wealth. By killing to achieve rich is definitely the wrong direction. We won't be happy with the dirty money unless we are cold-blooded people.

Glad to know that you have strong conscience. It's just not right to kill for money. The money that is earned in this way is stained and we will be cursed somehow. The wealth won't last long before we meet our faith of doing such bad deeds. Only the money we earned legally are blessed. Thanks for your response dierdre!

i was really thinking about it, my first answer is of course no. nobody has the right to take someone's life in order to have money. but it also occurred to me what if one of my love ones is really ill and needs a very costly operation and i dont have sufficient money except the offer. i guess i might take the money in order to save my love ones life. i just hope it wont happen to me though.

Hi rexiemay, thanks for thinking over the question seriously. You are into what I am asking That's right, under normal condition and for a person with conscience, he or she is not going to kill, even the reward is 1 million USD. But a desperate person who are in need of money to save his/her loved one, is possibly going to do it, even at a lower price.

Many people couldn't do it as well. It's because they have conscience. But some people could force themselves to do it because of greed. I even received response from other mylotter who said they are willing to do it, even at lower price. Thanks for your response kaerfaima!

Would you?? come on guys... money isn't everything.. I don't think I would have the heart to kill someone. Think about it, would you be able to enjoy that money knowing that someone had to die for it?

For me, no. But I think many out there won't hesitate to do it Just my opinion. Sometimes, the killing is not direct. It could be done by using economical power. A trade embargo will do the job, killing millions in the affected country. We could be unaware of it, but the wealth that we enjoy, could be built on the sacrifice and lives of the people in the exploited countries. Thanks for your resposne rombi001!

You are a kind person with conscience. I feel the same too. Money won't make me to take lives. I won't be happy even I could become rich in such a way. The end point of being rich is happiness. To get rich by killing, which will not make me happy, is just simply defeat the purpose. So, there is no way for me to do it too. Thanks for your response!

Ok, I'm sorry but killing is just wrong. No amount of money can change that. Besides my concience slowing eating me from within after the murder, money is just substance. Really killing is a moral thing. To take one's life to save your own. Nope.

Thanks for your response! Glad to know that you are a person having strong conscience and do not lose to the seduction of wealth. Totally agree that, we won't be happy to enjoy the wealth stained with crime and blood. It's just not right to build our happiness on other's suffering or life.

Thanks for sharing your point of view. I am glad that your judgement of life above all thing and wealth. I am totally agree with you, life is priceless and no matter how much we are paid, we will not kill anybody. But there are too many killing are happenning because of the greed for wealth or other form of advantage. I really pray for world peace and all the brutal killing can be stopped especially in middle-east.

Hello dear cheongyc. I won't kill anybody for money. That is absolutely out of morality and very inhuman. It will never happen to me because I would rather live a so-so life than have the least thought of it. I hate cruelity, but peace only. Thank you.

Well glad to know that, because I am thinking the same. Buddism teaching is prohibiting killing and preachs saving lives. But there are some people who are willing to kill if they are offered a price. One of the ugly nature of human is, human is willing to kill each other when some significant profit or advantage is involved. We have heard news about a woman who was poisoning his husband slowly by feeding him food with small amount of poison. She did this for his wealth and insurance compensation. How scary! But people with moral and conscience will never do such thing. Because for me, if the wealth I am owning is stained with blood, I won't be happy about it. It's meaningless to own great wealth but not happy, right?

You can't kill a person for money,certainly I can't kill anyone becoz if you want to kill someone you should have hatred in your heart and I don't have hatred to such extent to kill someone.

No I would not kill no one over a million dollars. Money is great but it is not a life saver. I believe that money is something that we need but I would not kill over money that is stupid, lol. I know some people are so money hungry that they may kill some one over it. What good is it to gain the whole world and lose your soul. Thats the agenda of people like donald trump he wants to gain money from everything he can touch. If I had 1 million dollars I wouldn't complain about it. But I will make sure I have commen sense about it.

That's the right thinking man and nice quote "What good is it to gain the whole world but lose your soul". I feel the same too. It's no point to gain the dirty and bloody money. Even if I am rich, I won't be happy because of my conscience. The wealth I made by killing will always remind me how I gain it. I know some people can just get over it, but not me. I could never able to enjoy it. Thanks for sharing your view, desmaster2007!

Wow. That's massive. If, because things have become complicated and I would have to DEFEND MY LIFE in the process, yes, I would probably kill. Not for the amount principally, for the the defense of my life. I mean, one million dahlah is just to tempting for hardhearted people who wants a share of it.

Well said kulaskulasito! It's our right to protect ourselves even if it requires us to kill the person who want our lives. Besides, killing is needed under some special conditions, in order to protect the lives of the innocents. But I really hope that we all do not get into such situations. Thanks for your response!
