Let's say an obnoxiously rich vegetarian corporate mogul offers you $50 million to turn away meat for the rest of your life. You're not vegan so things like eggs, cheese, milk, are still game. Beef, chicken, and fish no longer exist to you. Should you accept, the minute you screw up and consume some sort of meat, you immediately return all of the money you've been given, plus you're responsible for paying back whatever you spent of the $50 million. So as time go by, it gets more and more costly if you give in unless you invested some of the money wisely.
On the plus side, you're allowed to tell anyone who asks why you don't eat meat that it's because of the money as opposed to having to play the role of a bleeding heart until you're dead. Also, once a year you're allowed to pay $200K to have a meal of your choice that contains meat. You'd probably be sick afterwards from your body not being able to tolerate meat, but it shore wud taste guud.
Would you become filthy rich or choose MEAT?
I choose meat. I don't think I could make it through the first 6 months of meat abstinence. Plus I'd probably have spent a nice chunk of the money by the time I folded and would be wiped out a zillion times over.
I think the new guy we hired who is sitting next to me would choose the $50 million and consume his finger nails for the rest of his life because he's been gnawing on them for the past 20 minutes and 5 more minutes of it is going to make me vomit everywhere.
