Imagine you are walking to a critical business meeting at which you are going to close a $100 million dollar deal. You will be paid a fee of three million dollars if the contract is signed. However, some major details need to be discussed, and you are the only person capable of discussing them. Suddenly your best friend that you have been in friendship since childhood, and he was the best man at your wedding rushes up to you and blurts out: "Something dreadful has happened, and I need your help instantly. You are the only person who can help me out!" Would you try to identify the problem and delay action until after the meeting? What would you do?

That is a very hard one. I hope my friend could wait till the meeting is done and if not I guess I would go help my friend. After all friends are very important.

I'd help him and then sign the contract afterwards.

I will understand the situation then will decide. Most probably I will leave my friend and will ask some other friend or my family member to help him out till I come back from the meeting.

@sjvg1976 That's great opinion of you. At least you would offer a helping hand in return. Thanks for your contribution.
