Money, Women, or Power? (read thread before decision, please)

Money

16

Women

7

Power

16

The question is for you answer, though I suggest you read through the details for each and the final paragraph before making a decision: - Price no longer has any meaning to you, as you've just been gifted with an amount of money that puts a spin on the whole 1% affair; you now have literal economies worth of currency to spend at your leisure. - All women in the world will serve you and satiate your (probably detestable) desires, no matter how obscene or odd, with complete willingness to serve. - Megalomaniacs gaze at you with awe, as world governments have now ceded power to you, and silly notions such as freewill and desire are all abandoned. You are the god-king of mankind, and the future of humanity will be decided by you (though the life you live as a messiah shall be one without the warmth of a woman and the lavishness you would otherwise expect), and humanity will regain its indecisive nature once you have passed on from this world. The trick to this is that you cannot use what you pick in hopes of attaining the other two; so under the circumstances, money cannot buy you women or influence in the world (you can only use it to purchase things that will not allow you to advance your standing in world affairs, such as land/territory), women will not obey orders that result in you attaining wealth or power, and power only works on a global scale (you choose what development's and advancement's humanity will be focused on, though you live a rather Ghandi-like lifestyle). - Edit: There will undeniably be holes within the limitations, so please freely point them out to me if you get the chance.

  • Very interesting thread, OP. It's not often that something worth reading is posted on this forum. I chose money. Buying women isn't what I'm after. I'd much rather find a partner by more traditional means, though I'd also be happy living as a bachelor for the rest of my life. My biggest problems are debt, joblessness and people in general. If I had the chance to remove myself from these worries, then I would. My first choice was power until I read the caveat that all my doings would be undone upon my death, so that would be a fruitless endeavor, overall. I can do without buying women. I very much enjoy being single. Casual sex wasn't ruled out with the money choice, so long as I don't BUY women. Perhaps I'll find someone in the traditional manner (fall in love, get married, etc.) but being a bachelor forever would be a worthwhile price for that, and upon my death I would donate my money to those who would use it for the betterment of humanity. So, money is my choice.
