If you were given Ten Million Dollars . . .

Under the following conditions . . .

1. You would have to leave this country and could never come back.

2. You cannot have any contact with family and friends.


. . . Would you accept the monies?

I know of someone, whom ended up like this. The circumstances and money was a bit different, but nonetheless, the outcome was similar.

I, for one, could not opt for this. My family has worked too hard to settle and establish roots here. I could not imagine being away from my family and friends.

How would you chose?

Here's another thought:

Take the $10Million, pay $1 Million to get your face / identity changed and move back to the USA to you family & friends LOL

I'd be gone for sure... I don't talk to half of my family anyway, and I could make a lot of new friends pretty easy with that kind of cash

I would have to pass on the money. Family roots are burried deep here in the states. You could have all the money in the world but what you have spent a lifetime building with friends and family is unreplaceable.

I would take the 10mill tough it out for a little and invest, earn another 10 mill return the original 10 and return to my friends and family after a year or 2.
