As in instantly you lose $1,000 and whatever happened on the worst day of your life doesn't happen. I dont have $1,000 right now but if I did I know I sure would because the worst day of my life was a death in the family. How about you?

What about the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. worst days of your lives? You wanna buy them away too? I think every experience is a chance to grow as a person.

Obviously yes. Because the math demands it. The worst day of your life is almost invariably going to cost you more than $1000.

^this. Don't know about you guys but when something bad happens to me, I use it to make myself a better, stronger person. Bad things are gonna happen regardless, no point in trying to run from them.

No way the worst and best days are apart of me and my life and to take that away would be taking two pieces of a jigsaw that an old man was putting together for his whole life. Though I wouldn't mind £1000 right now.

I'd pay $1,000 for a good night out, so eliminatingmy worst day is a no brainer.

Honestly i dont think someone dying makes you grow as a person i just think it flat out sucks.

I disagree. Well, it does suck, but it also teaches you to cope with loss.

and how would your entire family dying, pets dying, house goes on fire, and losing everything worth less than a lesson of coping over loss? Great now I am stronger, but my family is still dead.

That seems a little extreme, doesn't it? I wasn't exactly talking about losing everything.

It wouldn't be the worst day of your life because you wouldn't have a 2nd, 3rd, or fourth.

I don't think there are many people who wouldn't pay $1000 to get rid of the worst day of their life.

I think we should make this more like 100,000 or more to make it a little more interesting.

It depends. What exactly would happen on that day? What could I learn from it? Would it lead to anything positive later on, another day?

Lots of factors to consider, but if it involved me getting robbed or something happening that has me losing more then $1000, then it would make more sense for me to spend the $1000 now and keep whatever I didn't lose right?

I can't help feeling like I'd be paying $1000 to only delay the inevitable. Say my worst day was a family death like your example TC, would my $1000 make all my family members immortal as part of the bargain?

Or are we talking $1000 to wipe the memory of the bad day ala Eternal Sunshine?

Wouldn't the second worst day just replace the worst day as worst day of your life?

That doesn't make any sense though because if you got rid of the worst day in your life, as if it never happened, then the second worst day would become your new worst day and so on and so forth. All that aside though, maybe I would.

Ultimately we are defined not by what we learn when life is perfect, but by how we respond to adversity and whether we learn anything when it hits. Obviously there are inevitabilities in life, such as the death of those we love, but even in that situation there exists a chance to learn something valueable.

So no, I'd not trade anything to avoid the worst day of my life.

Only if it includes a close family member dying in an untimely manner.. Otherwise, no, every experience good or bad is necessary for growing up emotionally and intellectually..

For that price? Heck no. I'd say bring on the worst day right now so I can get it over with.
