If someone gave you 2 million dollars to spend 5 years in jail, would you do it?

Question

yes/ no and why?

Answer 1

Damn straight, 750,000 in protection and the rest is mine!!

Answer 2

I would most definately for 2 million dollars.

Why? Because I got into so much petty driving troubles that I can not ever get a Drivers License. No DL, No Job. I live 23 miles deep into the forest where there is no Public Trans. So, I'm Stuck with No Life, but the Chores that are Very Consuming here in the Country.

What would I do with it? I'd Invest it, take care of my troubles, take care of my family, and come out with a Bigger Build, Lighter Temper, and a New Life that I can work with and Do Right.

I guess?

At least My Family would be Taken Care Of!!

Happy Hollidays!!

Answer 3

Well definitely no my freedom doesn't have a price on it imagine what could happen in 5 years your parents could pass best friend marry and give birth to your god child and not to mention your innocence is taken away its a whole different world who to say you would come out of there with your life and manhood intact I love opening doors and seeing the sky to much keep your 2 million I choose to be poor

Answer 4

This is going to sound soo cheesy, but..

I just watched the 1997 film Titanic.. and.. after I stopped crying, I reflected on what Jack Dawson said at the banquet
"I worked from place to place.. you know on train steamers and such.. I won my ticket on Titanic here on a lucky hand at Poker. A very lucky hand....I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or.. who I'm gonna meet. Where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and here I am, on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people...I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You never know what hand your gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at ya. make each day count"

He was right. It sucks that a day later he died in the Titanic tragedy.... -sniff-

But the 5 years of my life gone.. that I can never get back.. I wouldn't want to waste that.. in jail of all places.

Funny how Jack was poor and he fell in love with the rich woman. When her rich fiance asked to get on the lifeboat when Titanic was sinking and offered the guard money, he shoved it back at him and said "your money cant save you more than it can save me."

Answer 5

It would depend on the situation. What type of jail are we talking here? Minimum-security? Maximum-security? If they were to put me someplace where I wasn't exposed to violent criminals who might hurt or kill me, I would consider it. Also, can I choose which 5 years I spend in jail? like ages 50 to 55?

Answer 6

no way. trust me, lots off money, for most people, will not make life differnet. i think that if you love someone, and are happy, thats the best part of life, you wont get that in jail. but, there are lots of people out there who have nothing, and 5 years wont mean much, and 2 million will mean everything for them. i am middle class so i dont care much,m i am happy

Answer 7

No
1) money doesn't mean that much to me.
2) I could die in jail and wasted the last years of my life
3) There is no price anyone could pay for my freedom
4) I don't want to be some guys "girlfriend"

Answer 8

Yes, but only if the inmates (and not the guards!) were told that I was in there for killing a cop. That usually means you'll be fairly safe.

Answer 9

When I was down, poor, and on the Democrat Plantation, I would have said "YES".
But I have since escaped the Democrats, and I would now say: "NO".
Good thinking question. Thank you.

Answer 10

No. Jail is for criminals and I have never committed a crime!
