You can push one button, once.

I would lay a stick across them both and then press the green one. :greengrin

The red one. Unless I found myself in such circumstances that a guaranteed 1 million wouldn't make a significant difference to me and I could afford to speculate.

The green one, it would be hard but the odds are far too good.
Plus, $1m wouldn't be overly life changing. Once I've bought a house, a car and had a very good holiday there wouldn't be that much change.
Red one for me so I could quit the bank.

It's money I didn't have anyway to start off with so what you've never had, you'll never miss.
Take a chance, if I'm lucky I get $100 million (or £62 million) and if I'm not lucky then I'm no worse off than I was before I started!
And anyway $1 million is only £620,000. It's a lot of money but I wouldn't say it's particularly life changing.

£600k isn't life changing? Are you being serious?
I earn a highly respectable salary but unless you are a six figure earner that is life changing!!

Don't get me wrong, if someone came up to me in the street and offered me £620,000, I obviously wouldn't turn it down. I just don't consider it to be life changing, that's all.
And I don't earn a highly respectable salary! :greengrin
£62 million. Now THAT'S life changing, which is why I would be willing to take the risk.

I'd PM everyone on this thread who want to push the green button, start a syndicate, then split all the wonga we win between us. :wink: :greengrin
I would lay a stick across them both and then press the area between the two. :greengrin
Fixed that for you. I'll be giving you a miss if I ever have to select a team for the Krypton factor!:greengrin

I wouldn't say it's significantly life changing either. Obviously it would make life easier, but it depends what stage of life you're at whether it would be significantly life changing.
At 24 and still renting I wouldn't get much change out of £300k for a moderate house in a nice area of Edinburgh, after a holiday and a car I wouldn't have enough to pack in work and at an early stage of my career I couldn't really disappear for a few years and expect to come back at a decent level so I'd still have to keep my job.
At 50, with £5k left of your £35k mortgage it probably is life changing.

Being mortgage free, young or middle age is most definitely life changing...imagine not having to pay out approx 700-1.5k a month! You could then easily go and train to do something you wanted to do in the working world and enjoy it - can you tell I have regrets about getting in to a desk job :)

If I wanted to go and train to do something I wanted to do then I could do that now anyway.

Exactly. Ive never been bothered about playing the lottery. Folk laugh at me when. I say im not bothered about winning a couple of million. Id rather have a decent shot at 200k ish. Pay off my mortgage and maybe buy a new car and Id be delighted.
Im 27, and hardworking. Ive never expected anything for nothing so i have no issues working in future id like to do it without the pressure of bills every month thats all. So would everyone i guess
I also hate these senarios because i feel its akin to people teasing theirselfs with an "easy option". Hard work and sensible spending are the only real ways to success.

Red for me.I could easily set up a few things to keep me occupied and live for the rest of my days on a lot less than $1,000,000.
