@PeanutButterPopsicle, what field are you going into that requires 2mil+ to graduate? (And where would also make a difference)
-
@JackoftheDead, Was more of just an extreme exaggeration joke about the student debt situation.
-
@PeanutButterPopsicle, I see... *crawls back into grave to escape awkward situation*
-
@JackoftheDead, *grabs your leg and pulls you back out to invite you to tea time*
-
@PeanutButterPopsicle, *leg detaches* NOW LOOK AT WHAT YOU'VE DONE!
-
@JackoftheDead, YOU AREN'T TAKING YOUR CALCIUM SUPPLEMENTS AGAIN!
-
@PeanutButterPopsicle, I DONT HAVE A STOMACH ANYMORE. ITS A BIT OF A MOOT POINT!
-
@JackoftheDead, You got rid of your stomach just to avoid tea time? You sicken me.
-
@PeanutButterPopsicle, Fun fact: I work for Fedloan Servicing. Additional fun fact: we're coming for you. :D
-
@PeanutButterPopsicle, Times are hard ok? Had to get rid of a few things to make ends meet.
-
@PeanutButterPopsicle, this was amazing
-
@Missgeekgirl, I concur
-
@PeanutButterPopsicle, I feel that student loan pain man
-
It doesn't specify how many times you can press the button you picked, so I would keep on hitting the green button.
-
@The beasty beast, you have managerial timbre, sir.
-
@The beasty beast, Oh. My. God. *slow clap*
-
@The beasty beast, you're the kind of person who would wish for more wishes, aren't you?
-
@The beasty beast, then you could just press the red on 100 times
-
@The beasty beast, I hate to be the one to invoke quantum mechanics, but... Murphy's Law: if it can happen, it will. There is a chance, although small, that you could sit there and press the green button over and over for eternity and never win.
-
@The beasty beast, you and I think alike. I like you.
-
@Thatsnasty, Why do that when you only have to push the green one at most, twice
-
@Ajunta Pall, you sir are my kind of person. Also just FYI Kotor is an amazing game.
-
@The beasty beast, or you could keep hitting the red one, even though you're likely to get the 100M (or more) eventually with the green one. There's still no garuntee that you'll get anything
-
@The beasty beast, well if you keep hitting the red button you'd eventually have over $100 million
-
Instant $1 million, invest that shjt and retire early!
-
@Lazy Scientist, such a grown up answer
-
Im a heavy gamber, so ill go with d) Adam Lambert
-
Would press the 50%.
-
Or get a whole bunch of friends to press the 50% button. Then split it!
-
*presses both* *world explodes*
-
@Ghost of DoodleBob, nah. It would be a 75% chance for 50.5 million.
-
@JackoftheDead, no it would be a 50% of 51 million. And the other 50% you just get 1 million. There's no possibility you'd end up with 50.5 million. At least be smart if you wamma act smart.
-
@Level98Pikachu, tell me. What happens when you take the average of 100% and 50%? And what happens when you take the average of 100,000,000 and 1,000,000? I was working under the notion that if you press both you will not get either option but instead will get a synthesis of the two.
-
@JackoftheDead, fair enough. Just not the way I was thinking about it. Sorry for being a douche face. And I had a typo in my original response so I'm definitely the dumb one.
-
@Level98Pikachu, *applauds quick, well-mannered argument resolution*
-
@Michael Klump, noooo I came to expect a heated argument over nothing! The fvck people!
-
@JackoftheDead, take a maths class
-
Well based on game theory one should pick the 50% chance one. I'd go for the guarantee tho.
-
Red first, then green.
-
Press instant $1 million 100 times
-
If I weren't to use a loophole, I would say 50% chance because with pushing that button, there is no risk of loss. There is only a good chance of gain. If I do not get the money, nothing changes. If I do get the money, lots of changes.
-
@SuperbDork, But then you would risk living the rest of your life regretting that you didn't press red
-
@SuperbDork, yea but the comparison; if you press the red one, you are guaranteed 1 million more period, no probability of losing it. So in essence, you are giving up $1 million to push a button that will give you 100 million. That button costs $1 million to press.
-
@MrJojo, I wouldn't regret a thing. I made a choice and either way I knew it wasn't the wrong one.
-
@bronze512, sure, but neither amounts of money were mine to begin with. And what if I do get the money? Then I have that money to use how I wish. I would want to know that I got it. The money is risk and the final certainty. I wouldn't look at it as a loss of either but a chosen opputoppression
-
@SuperbDork, opportunity x)
-
@SuperbDork, but at that given time, when you are offered the buttons, you have gained 1 million. You are promised that amount, so thus it is yours. When you press the green button, you have paid 1 million to press it. So the money was yours and you lost it for the chance of a higher amount. It's like "Let's Make a Deal"; the contestant is given $100, Wayne Brady then says, you can give up the $100 for what's under the curtain. The $100 is yours and you gave it up.
-
@bronze512, but, in the end, I either have much more or the same amount as I had before the buttons were given as an opportunity. By pressing the red button, I would be giving up an opportunity for more money. I do not care if I end up with no money. I do care about finding out what can be gained from pushing the green button. It doesn't matter about guaranteed outcomes. Why risk not gaining more money?
-
@SuperbDork, I did not mean to include the not
-
@SuperbDork, wait.. yes I did... language x) its sometimes a challenge
-
Loop hole: it say press one button sooo... Presses 1 million 100 times
-
I'd put the green button on top of the red button, which would trigger both, yet I only pressed one. Button hacked.
-
Why not both? * Spanish fanfare plays*
-
I'd like to press the red, use the money to make a clone of myself, and have that clone press green
-
@Izzy3164, but... Wouldn't it have been much more efficient (and legal) to just press the green button? Besides if the clone got the money you wouldn't see a dime of it.
-
@JackoftheDead, who said the close would be sufficiently educated to the point of knowledge of what money is? Haha
-
@Izzy3164, are you saying you aren't sufficiently educated to understand the concept of money?😳
-
@Daquan, I do... I think 0-0
-
@Izzy3164, but you will have to train the clone to like green. And what else is green?
-
@JackoftheDead, grass, leaves, paint, veggies, eggs & ham
-
@Izzy3164, ew...
-
@JackoftheDead, never said it'd be easy. But I have a natural love for broccoli so already a fraction of the way there
-
@Izzy3164, *gasp* you like broccoli???? ME TOO! *high fives*
-
@JackoftheDead, WOOO
-
Third button: 100% chance repost
-
I would push the gree... Never mind. Someone already said it.
-
Instant red button. 1 million
-
Decide with like and dislike buttons.
-
Hit the red button with the green button. Checkmate.
-
You guys realise that interest alone of having £1 million in your bank account would give you more money then you'd ever need
-
Green. If you don't get it, your life won't be any different than before.
-
Green... I have a realistic shot of making the million in real life, gotta go big
-
I would click the one million then invest in Microsoft, Apple, and Disney

Takes boyfriend, both push 50% button, one of us gets the $100 million, split it down the middle
-

-

-
Instant 1 million
Instant $1 million. That would cover half of my student loans maybe. *rolls around on the floor violently sobbing*
