Poll: For £1,000,000?

[Joe Deadman]

Nope. I mean what the hell am I supposed to spend the money on if not video games?
For £1billion maybe.

 

[laol1999]

there are so many other things to do in life other than videogames (especially with however much a million pounds is translated into canadian money that i dont see any way you couldnt

 

[nick n stuff]

no. i can always get more money and i enjoy them too much

 

[Andantil]

Yes. With that money I could dedicate my time to other things. I'd make a real audiophile of myself. I'd get an expensive soundcard, a pair of Sennheiser HD800 headphones, a nice headphone amp, and plenty of music. I could also get into a better college, because at the moment I'm set to go to Towson, which is pretty average, though I am accepted to Drexel, because I'm about $40,000 short.

 

[Estocavio]

Not a chance in hell.

I've seen some people say 1 Million wouldn't last a lifetime. If the average job pays £18,000 a year and you work from when you are 18 you will only earn 846,000 over the course of your life.

Now say you take the million, stick it in the bank in an account with lets say 3%, you would get 30,000 a year just in interest alone. So with a nice 1 Mil in the bank you then live off a middle class income for doing absolutely sod all? I would give up games in order to do that absolutely.

 

[Johnny Cain]

A mere million simply would NOT be enough... :S

 

[twaddle]

1000000 pounds? no way. i aspire to be a game designer/developer/artist/programmer and that would be like selling my soul

 

[AmayaOnnaOtaku]

make it 10,000,00 and I will discuss the option

 

[Dr.Hax]

Never I love video games they are great I would give in if it was for like a week or a day but not forever.

 

[Scobie]

DELETED

 

[Aerodynamic]

Yes, with those 1,000,000$ I could partake in different hobbies.

 

[Treefingers]

Yeah, definitely.

I love gaming, but there's a lot more to life. I can think of SO many things i'd do with that much money.

And there are always films and literature to fall back on in old age.

I concur.

Seems like a bit of a no-brainer tbh. Especially when put like this.

 

[mb16]

yes I would invent something similar to video games but call it something else and still have half/quarter of a million

 

[Johnnyallstar]

money isn't really that important to me. yeah it's nice, but it doesn't do everything.

 

[Arkhangelsk]

Hell to the no! I love games too damn much.

 

[Beastialman]

That's 1.5 million in American dollars. Yeah I could do that, put it in an interest account, get 50K each year, I could survive on that pretty easily (and not have to work).

Of course a million doesn't go as far as it used to.

 

[chozo_hybrid]

Nope, it has helped define who I am, to turn my back on video games would be to turn my back on myself.

You mean like deciding to become a gigolo or something?

I have no idea what you mean by that.
