I'll save the baby, because he for sure cannot swim. the others maybe able to fend for themselves. And my grandmother would want me to take the baby. Bestfriend also.
No girlfriend, but my boyfriend would also want me to save the baby.

Yes, all of them except the baby can do something to save themselves. And the baby has longer time here in the world and he has a big potential to be a good citizen. Thank you for your response, that's a good choice.

I'll try to save my life first, and them call for a rescue to help the others.. For sure many will be save my grandmother,bestfriend, and girlfriend will all be saved if I call a team of rescuers.hehehe


myLot reputation of 95/100. markmoney (559)   ranked 901 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

There's no time to call for rescue, before you reach the rescuer, the ship will be drowned and all of the four will die. So you consider yourself as the rescuer, who would you save among the four? You have the ability to save only one.


myLot reputation of 83/100. rafcore182 (536)   ranked 762 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

Ok, I'll save my girlfriend. The reason is I love her and my bestfriend is just a friend not a lover, my grandmother is old so she knows whats best for me, and what makes me happy I know my grandmother will understand my choice.


myLot reputation of 95/100. markmoney (559)   ranked 901 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

Ok, so you would save your girlfriend. That's a good choice. You choose your girlfriend because you love her and she is also the one you want to marry and share the rest of your life with. Thanks for your response.

Hmmm I'm going to respond to this as if I am completely deciding who lives or died in the situation. Mathemtically of course I would say the baby due to it's greatest potential to the world but logically that says it has a 50/50 chance of being a positive or negative potential. Emotionally and for my best interests I would probably pick my best friend due to the fact that he's there for me no matter what happens while the others may not be.


myLot reputation of 95/100. markmoney (559)   ranked 901 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

So you choose your best friend. That's also a good choice. You can really count on your bestfriend, they're always there when you need them. So you just give them back the favor. Thanks for your response.

A baby..
Anyway, is the baby belong to me?
Hahahaha...
I will only first consider baby or my grandmother. However..i cannot swim, i afraid i cant even save myself....


myLot reputation of 95/100. markmoney (559)   ranked 901 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

No, it's not yours, but if you will save him, then it will be yours. Let's assumed that you know how to swim, and you have the life jacket. So your choice is the baby, that's a good choice. Thanks for your response.

I would have to say that I would save the baby as well. I agree with the fact that the others have more of a chance to fend for themselves and if givin the choice would do the same. Besides if I was there and only one of us could be saved I would want the rescuer to take the baby first and I would take my chances with them getting to me next.


myLot reputation of 95/100. markmoney (559)   ranked 901 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

Yes, the baby is the most pitiful in that situation. He can't fend for himself. You had a good choice. Thanks for your response.

Well... let me see. This is a very difficult situation, though. In the reality, I still have my grandmother and I love her very much. A baby is so precious and it is so heartbreaking not to save her. About a best friend, thank god I don't have one. All are just friends and so I don't think I would feel regret if not saving any one of them. About girlfriend, I don't have one because I am a woman. So I guess it must be my spouse. I am already married so it must be my husband.

After a thorough thinking, I would have to say I want to save my husband first. This is because we are the nearest family member. I don't know the baby so it won't hurt me if I don't save her. To my grandmother, I would have to pray a lot so that I would be given a second chance to save her. She has to be number two in my list because if I think rationally, she is already too old and she will die in several years ahead. But don't think I am cruel, okay? I am not given a choice to save more than one here, so I can't do anything about it.


myLot reputation of 95/100. markmoney (559)   ranked 901 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

Yes, it is really a difficult situation. So you choose the GIRLFRIEND, or in your case, your HUSBAND. I think that is a good choice. They said your spouse is your half, because marrying is like "2 become 1". You're married to your spouse because you choose him as the person you want to share the rest of your life with through thick and thin. So you have a point in choosing him. You are the first to choose the GIRLFRIEND. Thanks for your response.

i would throw my grandmother in a lifeboat, grab the baby and tell my best friend to save my girlfriend.


myLot reputation of 95/100. markmoney (559)   ranked 901 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

You have a good point and a good thinking to save all of them. But actually, my point here is and what I'm really trying to know is who among the four is most important to be saved. So I'm expecting that your answer is a choice among the four on who do you think is the most important for you to save. Let me just put this way, so the ship is sinking, the four are there. You are in the shore, but you have a magic to save one of them, who would you choose?

Of course the baby. He do not have the ability to save his life so it could be him that I should save first.


myLot reputation of 95/100. markmoney (559)   ranked 901 out of 19,392 in questions & answers  1 year ago

Ok, so you think it's the baby. That's a good choice. Thanks for the response.
