2. Tircky question.
I'm reminded of the story of the Monkey's Paw.

Money is good for the things it can do, but it always depends on what it costs to acquire the money to determine if it's "worth" it.

3. No. Living a comfortable life is not worth the time I would waste.
Besides, $1M just is not a tremendous amount of money these days.

4. Nope. Love is more important.
Not saying that a million bucks in the bank account wouldn't be nice, but I'll go for love every time.

7. I think with a million dollars you could probably find true love
or at least a reasonable facsimile. :silly:

8. Randy Newman agrees
" I don't love the mountains And I don't love the sea And I don't love Jesus He never done a thing for me I ain't pretty like my sister Or smart like my dad Or good like my mama It's Money That I Love It's Money That I Love They say that's money Can't buy love in this world But it'll get you a half-pound of cocaine And a sixteen-year old girl And a great big long limousine On a hot September night Now that may not be love But it is all right One, two It's Money That I Love Wanna kiss you Three, four It's Money That I Love Used to worry about the poor But I don't worry anymore Used to worry about the black man Now I don't worry about the black man Used to worry about the starving children of India You know what I say about the starving children of India ? I say, "Oh mama" It's Money That I Love It's Money That I Love It's Money That I Love "

( apologies for the bad lyrics layout, I just copy-n-paste 'em. )

10. Yes.
I'm never gonna find true love, so I might as well take the cash.
