...what would you new car's color be?

But honestly, weigh the two options, and unfortunately let's say you can't donate a good portion of your money to charity. You can either make the world peaceful, and be poor, or have a shit load of money to blow on anything. What would you do?
 
what would world peace entail?

anyone else get a notice that there are a lot of money threads on nsg recently?
 
that amount of money would not solve the world's problems, so unfortunately I'd have to keep the money and blow it on self-indulgences. I'm willing to take one for the team.
 
That's a solid question. In this case, you could define what it would entail, as you are the one granted the two options.

And I'm kinda going with the money theme right now, I saw this question posed somewhere else, but wanted to see everyone's insight here.
 
I would honestly probably choose world peace, here's why... If I was just being given either of these two options, world peace is obviously nice and being a billionaire would be dope, but becoming a billionaire from a handout wouldn't be satisfying... Working hard at something and being rewarded with money would be much cooler. But who knows, I might pick the billions if it actually happened.
 
Oh wait, I'm drunk-- you meant literally world peace (no matter the cost) or billl gates' fortune.

Ummm. Bill gates' fortune. Survival of the fittest?????

The fact of the matter is even if world peace was achieved, it wouldn't last. As long as there are two or more people around, people will disagree on crap and conflict will inevitably arise.

I'll take the money.
 
I'm a bad person, quite honestly I would take the money and make the world a lot worse of a place, for my entertainment.
 
Money. World peace just won't happen, unless we have some Brave New World type shit happen to society where everybody's brainwashed into being happy. And in that world, I'm not worth~$55 000 000 000 dollars. So fuck everybody, I'm going to spend my short time on the rock floating in space happy.

Say you got the money at age 21, and lived to the ripe old age of 90, you would be able to spend about 2.1 million per day, or could save up for 2 days and buy a Bugatti Veyron. Oh ya, and FUCKING SKIS EVERYWHERE
 
World peace isn't a real thing. I would take the money and drown out the blood-curdling screams of war and hate with the purr of the v10 in my ferrari
 
I'd choose the money and then I'd give it all away to Detroit by flying over and dumping the money outta a blimp I bought.
 
I would take the money and then monopolize nuclear energy (conversion). That should keep me set for a couple thousand years.
