Let’s say that you have an opportunity to gain billions to fix the society from the top. Do you think that you would keep your integrity and use your money for the greater good, or that you would be corrupted by your power?

If so, would you still accept the offer knowing that you would just make the situation worse?

And if you believe in yourself, how would you try to convince an hypotetical entity to give you this wealth?

To avoid regrets let’s say that if you decline the offer your memory about the deal gets erased.

    Yeah. Knowing myself, I’m probably going to just forget i have the wealth and spend it on getting a nice house in a nice area and getting my wife pretty dresses to wear to work while I stay home and take care of the kids.

    I think the only hypothetical entity willing to give me the money would have to be Satan himself; I’d be making a bet with him that I wouldn’t be corrupted by the wealth, he takes my soul if I get greedy. Can’t imagine convincing any other sort of entity to give me billions of dollars to do nearly nothing with it.
