By millionaire, I mean like five million American dollars, tax free. The IRS will never harass you about this sudden appearance of seven figures in your bank account. And by immune to bullets, I mean bullets just bounce off of you. So do arrows and darts and any other type of "missile" weapon. But you can still be killed with a sword or a bomb (or a disease).

Of course I'd take the money. I mean, there's an absolute guarantee that you'll need the money at some point but NO guarantee that you'll ever need to be immune to 'missile-type' weapons

Hmmmmm...... hard to say. I hate to bring up a cliche, but money won't buy you happiness. Although, that's only true if you're looking for the kind of happiness money can't buy. If you're settled and at ease with your life, $5 million is just a great addition, and can indeed make you happy.
Your chances of getting shot while you have the $5 million are quite high, the murderer could be your heir and want the money. After he inherits it, he can easily pay off a detective.
Immunity to bullets, however, opens up whole new possibilities. You could get a Vegas show all about being shot. You could have audience members come up to shoot you. Maybe even bring there own guns! You could also go into law inforcement. Because of the immunity to ranged weapons, you'd wear a stab-proof vest (if there is such a thing) instead of a bullet proof one. Also, you could go into battle with your only thought being not letting anyone come too close to you.
The chances of earning $5 million while you have the immunity are fairly high, as long as you are willing to publicize yourself.
Either way though, there are dangers, of people wanting your money or modern science wanting your body. I personally like my life the way it is now, and I think the money would complicate a lot. Maybe I could use it to pay off my college loans and then donate the rest. Then I could have some kind of fund with my name on it and leave a legacy, while at the same time paying off debt and getting rid of the money. Not that money is bad, I'm just saying, nobody would ever ask me for money.
The bullet immunity sounds like the better choice for me, though. It makes me generally immune to bad neighborhoods and hostage situations, and would make me a terrific soldier. It would also make me a big celebrity. Or, I could just live my life as normal, and I would be the only one who knew. That way, I could keep going with my life but at the same time have a fear quelled at all times. I would always be at ease near guns.

Millionaire, I have never had to be immune to bullets and doubt I would ever need to be. Of course one could make the argument that by being immune to bullets you could find a way to MAKE 5 million dollars. Then again, 5 million dollars could buy some good bulletproof clothing.....

I'd use my immunity to bullets in California or Vegas to get more than 5 million American after taxes.

I would take the immunity to bullets. I think I would like to get into a line of work where my girft could be rewarded. Perthaps the police department is looking for someone like me. Think of the lives I could save. Money is money, but the friendships and lives you could save would be more than money could ever buy. Call me kinda nuts, it seems everyone elses answers ar emoney hungary, but I would just like to a see a little girls eyes when she thanks me for saving her Daddy from being shot.

I would take the money and then buy me a bulletproof shield against all the other things. I win! Money is not everything but the choices weren't very good.
