Ack. No. Even if it was someone I absolutely despised, and even with the $1B reward, I'm not so cold-hearted that I have managed to completely suppress my conscience from tormenting me for wrong-doing (especially something as severe as murder). It's one thing to think of vengeance and the pain you can inflict on someone you hate, it's another to have the act hanging over me my entire life. It's not a matter of whether its wrong or right on the eyes of others and any higher being; it's just a fact that me, as a person, cannot handle the consequences. Then again, someone who's killed ends up being one of two outcomes, right? Either you feel so guilty that you break down, or you feel exhilarated to the point of wanting to do it again to feel that feeling once more. Buuuut, I'm pretty sure I'm generalizing. _

Nope not even for the greatest amount of money, because I think that killing is wrong. Whatever the circumstances are! It's never a solution even if I am in a financial difficulty. I would feel a big remorse and guilty afterward.

I did find myself tempted to take revenge on someone who wronged me in the past, but it wasnt killing someone. I told my boyfriend how I felt and he said "you don't want to cross over to the 'dark side'," and he is right because the more I thought about it the more it was not even relevent to my life NOW. I had a dream once about this and it was freaky, i thought I had killed someone and buried them and someone was on to me--so i thought, it was just a awful way to live !! A billion dollars, how mean how long is that gonna last, the more money you have the easier it probably is for feds to trace you. I would have no peace of mind and I love my peace of mind even as little ole me. Another thing is I watch Tru Tv from time to time, more so in the past, and there is some crazy stuff you see--but the technology of forensic science is probably the most innovative science I have seen and there is just too much knowledge in this field for it to be sooo easy to kill someone so I would advise anyone against it because its just not worth it, cold cases always get reopened--especially with new science in forensics. I've seen cases solved even from fire damage because fire does not reach every nook and cranny and these people who do their job WILL check every nook and cranny for evidence, especially hair.

No, i wouldnt do that. I wouldnt be able to kill someone nor would i be able to live with the guilt. A billion dollars is not as much value as a persons life.

NEVER!!! I would never kill anyone for a billion dollars even someone I hate. First, it's really, really, wrong to kill. Next, I don't want to be bothered by my conscience.
