Pfft, Id say go bankrupt. Its not selfish to want to live. And you wonder why games always have either just really good or really bad. This is either a really noble, or not really noble situation, not a good or bad one. Besides, you only get one life, but you can have any amount of money.
The trouble is that it's not your money, so the family will be eating bread crusts and sleeping in a box for a while.
Either the family is loving and good, the kind youd want to sacrifice your life for, or they are not. So either they would not mind since they love you like a good family should, or they dont give a crap anyways, why should you?
Because I care about their well-being, and saving my own life is not worth potentially ruining all of theirs. Them not minding doesn't factor in.
Well they should also care about yours.
Irrelevant. My life is not worth every asset that my entire family owns. Yes, you can make more money, but losing a house, savings, and retirement means years and years and years of misery that it is entirely possible to never escape from.
And dying means you are dead. Thats it. No chance to earn the money back, no chance to find happiness, no chance to experience new things. You are dead and gone.

This is acceptable.

Well fine, you go be dead. I however will prefer to live. Does not make me a bad person. (Which was my argument to begin with)

Forcing your entire family into bankruptcy to save yourself would be selfish and cowardly.

None of those. I live in Canada. Any life threatening injuries/illnesses to me or my loved ones is free.
This right here except replace Canada with England.
No heart rending choice for me, the NHS has it covered.

And the circle is complete. My whole first comment was in response to that comment specifically. Would I die for the sake of another? Maybe. Anyone right now I would die for? No. My family I would not die for, not in that situation. I am not a coward for it, I am human. Life is more important than material goods.

Material goods are closely tied to health and success, which is why Mexicans keep trying to hop the US border.

Out of curiousity, what is it about your family that would give you reason to not die for them?

So as long as your family does well, you will be too healthy to be dead eh?
Though not going to say my family is some monstrous one, they have not shown me the love that is worth dying for. I do hope they love me enough though that they would not be sour about it. If they were though, that would then make me feel they are horrible and thus I would feel no shame.

I live in Australia, our health care isn't fucked.

Hahahahaha.
This, but replace Australia with Britain.

Socialised Healthcare for the win.

People don't do well when they have absolutely no money. Saving up for retirement, the most critical asset that would be lost, takes a long time. Assuming they have decently paying jobs, short-term they might bounce back, but the old timers have probably just lost their futures.

This is understandable, I suppose.

Breaking Bad is one of the greatest TV shows.
It's like a gift from heaven.

Pretty depressing, though. Especially the season 2 finale.

I haven't watched in forever. Thankfully, there is Hulu. Need to catch up on Lost as well. And by catch up when it comes to lost? Start over from the first season.
Well, at least you're have something to watch for the next few months. Needing to watch 7 years'-worth of TV just to understand what the hell is going on...
