And the anger her(?) posts give off lead me to believe I hit the nail on the head (pun intended) from the outset.
karen lotz's "less than intelligent come back" was directly related to the topic at hand. As such, only someone with the attention span of a fruit fly would think that you following up with "my 13-year-old daughter could come up with a better one" wasn't directly related as well.
Or did you just not think the comment through, and would not post it again if you had the chance to take it back?

That's because you like men. You'd probably do it out of boredom.

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't do it. Especially considering the fact that there have been numerous studies that show that people who come into large amounts of money instantly (ex. lottery winners) tend to be less happy in life than those who don't.
Not that there is anything wrong with it... but I wouldn't jeopardize my personal integrity for money.
I'd like to think I wouldn't, but I don't know.
At some point, though, an amount of money can become so absurdly high that it no longer has an effect, I think. For me, I don't know if $10 billion meets that threshold or not, but if I wouldn't do it at that threshold, then no amount of money would make me do it.
For example, if there is something I wouldn't do for $10 quadrillion dollars, adding a zero probably won't do anything to my response.

I think it stems more from the expectation that that kind of money is going to make them happier. When that isn't fulfilled, they become depressed often.
In the words of John Rockefeller, when asked how much money was enough for him, it's always "just a little bit more."
