If your forced to choose between one of these wishes, which one would you choose?

1. for 10 years you won't age

2. get 1999 dollars every month

3. get a million dollars right away

4. you will never need to sleep/never tired

5. you could fly for 30 minutes every day

Ok I'm sure the ability to fly will earn you more than $2000 a month or a million dollars.

I would probably choose to have $1999 every month over the million right away because having that much money at one time would make me uncomfortable. Its a like a weird phobia that I have. If I ever had that much money, I feel like life would have absolutely no challenge to it anymore, thus defeating my purpose of living. I feel like life should have its bumps in the road every once in awhile instead of a smooth path all the way through.

Wow, I'm surprised you guys are picking the $1,999. Never being tired would be amazing. Not only would you not sleep, but you..wouldn't get tired. You could run for literally months at a time, compete in the Olympics that way. You would make up about half of your life that you would otherwise spend sleeping.

Dang it, why do I always vote for the wrong option?! Anyways, I pick not aging, because for much more than a million dollars I could allow scientists to discover the secret to eternal life!

I think researching eternal life will cost more than 1 million, because for 1. it will cost more than 1 million and 2. it's impossible

I'll take the 1999 a month.

Flying sounds cool, but I'd probably lose track of time and come crashing down when the 30 minutes is up.

Never need sleep. I was tied between that and $1999 at first, but I have made a final decision to never need sleep. I'd just love to be able to have more time in each day to spend with family, friends, in study, and work. I'd absolutely love it. I would like the option to go to sleep if I want to, even if I do not need it however.

If I can not age for ten years, then scientists should be able to find out exactly what is causing this and replicate it over and over, thus achieving immortality(Unless you're killed). But if it's just some supernatural magic, then I pick no tiring.

$1 million. Why the hell would you take $1999 every month? That's 24000 a year, which means it takes over 41 years to get your million, and that doesn't even account for inflation. :?

Getting 1999 a month would be great, you would never feel like you need to save too much money and you can invest it properly as with getting a bulk sum at one time like 1million can change people, make them distant as they feel theyll never fail though wasting it will eventually lead to you having very little left and then your screwed.

A million dollars will exhaust itself fast; 1,999 dollars a month will guarantee that I'll never be broke at the very least.

Imagine what could be accomplished if you never got tired, and never slept, I already feel that sleep is a waste of time, so I would go with that.

You spend 1/3 of your life sleeping. If the average person lives to the age of 70, then without needing to sleep, you would get 23 years more time to yourself (17 if you are 20 and get it now). I'd take no sleep over the money. Despite the money being a good thing "now," no sleep would have lasting benefits.

You'd also have more time to work and thus make more money. An 80 hour week could be done in a few days. o.0

$1999 a month! Never be broke, that would rock! I'd go through 1 million extremely fast. Sure, the sleep thing would be nice. I could spend more time with the family I could play my games in peace while my 2 and 3 year olds slept, that would rock too!

Well assuming I could still sleep if I wanted to, I'd pick never have to sleep or being tired. What good is that million dollars if you are gonna wear down anyway? Besides, you can always make money by normal means yet never wearing down? Try to accomplishing that and see how it goes lol.

I just noticed the "not get tired" part. Not needing sleep is one thing... but if you think about it, not getting tired would mean you could do anything for an extraordinarily long time and not need rest or get fatigued. I'd say this is a boon that greatly overshadows the others.

The money isn't going to spend itself, so unless you idiotically blow it all at once it should be fine. Though, you would have to spend less than 2000 a month for it to last your whole life. And then there's taxes. But like Tofu said, you do have interest. Hard choice! I think I'll go with never sleeping then.

1 million dollars right away, it would take 41 years for the $1999 to equal the same amount total, which would make me about 58 by the time they equal out by which time i hope to be earning enough that i don't need the money any more. Also investing the 1mil would result in much more than $1999 a month would. As for the rest, i'm only 16 so not ageing isn't an advantage, if i never slept i'ld just get really bored, i have no need to fly and it would just attract unwanted attention.

It all depends how careful you are with your money, it lasts how ever long you want it to last.

Flying, it would be nice to go up in the clouds with the wind in your face although if the 30mins runs out will you fall down and die? Nevertheless having the ability to fly can make me more than a million dollars I'd be star people would make movies,books etc.. I'd probably be a billionare if I could fly, hell the military might even want to make use of my abilities and pay me even more cash.

As tempting as a million dollars up front would be, I think I'd have to go with the $1999 a month. I wouldn't have to worry about blowing my money all at once. Granted, $24,000 a year isn't much...I know in my current situation I could definitely make it work. I don't think it would be good for a family though, although who can complain about a steady extra two grand each month.

I think never being tired/never having to sleep would be the best, so long as there wasn't any other physical side-effects such as exhaustian or anything.

Tbh my bggest obstacle in life right now is money, but I think never having to sleep could open my world up a lot more.
