[DEBATE] |$3,000 Every Month| or |$1,000,000 Once| ✓✓✓

in #money7 years ago (edited)

So I had this debate with a few friends last night over a few drinks and I wanted to hear your guys' opinions.

If you were offered the following two options, which one would you pick and why?

  1. Receive $3,000 every month for the rest of your life.
  2. Receive $1,000,000 once (now).

What about you?

Sort:  

Depend on your age if you are at 20. You will definitely take the first option. And of course if you high earn very high return, it is likely to take the second option where you can get 3.6% per annum to get 36000 per year and keep ur 1m intact.

1 million once. I could easily turn that 1 million into 2 in 6 to 12 months.

take all once. go to casino. put all on red!
just joking. 8-)

I would gladly accept either. I'll memo you my bank account details later... :P
Hmmm. I'd prefer $1M so I could buy a house.
Resteemed.

I'd go for 2, because already within 10 years the 3000 a month will be worth less than 2000 a month I think.
