Default How many people would you give up your net worth for?

Pretend someone kidnapped someone close to you, and the only way he would survive would be for you to transfer all of your assets over to the kidnapper. In this scenario assume this is the only way for said person to live.


How many people would you do this for?


FWIW I am pretty selfish and well off, and I found it surprising how many people I think I would do this for.

I wanted to say just my parents, but then I kept thinking of other people and the number started getting pretty large. I'll probably cut off all contact with everyone I know just in case.

Sorry, you are #22

After running a LifeEV analysis I concluded that it is optimal for me to only save 21

I'm pretty sure I have a negative net worth, so I'd give it up for each and every one of you in this thread.

Default Re: How many people would you give up your net worth for?

I don't have money worth taking a pizza hostage over, but if I did and the hypothetical scenario emerged where I had to pay all m money in ransom (and there was no possibility of someone else paying, paying not working in saving the person, saving occurring by other means, or consideration of not-paying ransoms as a deterrent type stuff) I can't imagine I could live with myself if I didn't pay the ransom even for a stranger let alone someone I know; or maybe Im not understanding you.
