1. As in five thousand five hundred dollars? Anything short of murder.
Also, is it salary or would OT be time and a half?

23. LOL, touche'
But, seriously, when I think about all the people I could help and all the good I could do if I made that kind of money, it seems like a "no-brainer" to me.

Not to mention the fact that I would be dirty filthy stinking rich. I am a good person, and I would do great things for all of humanity with my riches, but I am human and greed is something that I can't deny I feel sometimes. I won't lie. I want what I want, and I may be part of the problem by thinking the way I do, but what I want for myself and my family is relatively little compared to many.

I've always used this as an example...If I ever won a $100 million lottery, I'd give $95 million of it away. If you can't fulfill every dream and every desire you ever had with $5 million, money simply isn't the problem. You'll never be happy.

That's just my opinion.

3. Many, many people ...... let's see, $33,000 a night ....

Work a few weeks, and live very, very well.

4. Plenty. I won't commit to anything at this point though. I need specifics of what the job is.

5. I'd need actual situations before declaring.
There are some people/things I'd do for that price. Others would cost substantially more.

9. I always imagined there was something akin to a mail slot in his office
And cash would just be indiscriminately shoved in there every minute.

Or maybe it was more like one of those game show telephone booths where you go inside and huge fans blow money around.

15. I'd wait tables again for $5500/hr.-- but not for a dollar less!
I'd wait tables again for $5500/hr. But it would take that much for me to even entertain the notion of waiting again-- and I doubt the clientèle has gotten any more civil in the pasty twenty-five years...

27. And I would do anything for love....
....but I won't do that.

This is such a great topic, IMO.

I've already said my piece, but I'd love to hear more from the rest of the lounge.
