Make your own odds russian roulette?

It all comes down to whether you consider death = infinite -EV

I'd probably go with something like ten, if im assured a painless death.

If I died, I would never have to worry about anything again

If I won, I would never have to worry about anything again.

I would only do it once no matter what the odds were. 10 million invested well is enough to see you through your lifetime.

Does my wife get the 10M if I die? If so, I'll play with a 1,000 chamber gun. If not, a 10,000 chamber gun.

Twenty chambers. I'm not a very happy person. If the proposition ever seriously came up I'd probably raise or lower it depending on how I was feeling at the moment.

If I got the money no matter what (and therefore my family would get it if I died) I definitely see myself going lower. I have a lot of poor family members.

[Blarg]

Probably 1 in 6, but I've been as low as even money. I'm not convinced that 1 in 6 is really accurate. I can see dipping to 1 in 3 really easy.

[jschaud]

It definitely changes the odds if your family still gets the money if you do blow your head off. Maybe 50 for me. 100 if they don't get the money.

[testaaja]

10, I would [censored] myself though. I'm 18.

[Idiotex]

I have never hit a gutshot on the river in my life (well I've probably never chased one but that's beside the point) so obviously I would be safe with 10 chambers.

Is it a messed up reflection of the forums that some of us are saying we'd do it for 3 chambers, or even a flip?

I think this thread actually helped me take a look at my life and pursure other goals.

Who says russian roulette has no benefit to society?
