If someone gives you $1 Million in cash then will you take it? Remember one thing that you will not be able to know why that person is giving this money to you. Will you take money, no questions asked? What if that person's intentions are not good? What if you get into trouble for taking that money? Will you still risk everything for the money?

Oh my... That $1 Million is really tempting. It is really hard to decide. maybe if I were still single I would accept it. But since I am already a family woman now, though maybe earning money is really hard, I would not accept it. Remember in this world no one will ever give you that big amount without asking anything in return.
I would never risk the safety and the security of my family for that. Anyway as long as I have my family, though how hard life is, we will always be happy together...
I am already content of what I have now and no any amount of money can exchange that.

Yes you are right. Its good to be on the safe side and not risk everything for money, even though it might be a great amount of it. Money that you earn, even if its less than this, is far better only because it wouldn't put your life and your family's life in any danger.

I have no scruples, I would take the money be gone before anyone knew that I had it. There are ways to hide stuff like that ;-)

The first thing that entered my mind when i read your discussion was, what's the catch? there must be a catch, if you're just giving it away and not asking for anything back.. I don't know if I would take it.. maybe I would, then I would use it immediately.. hahahaha. Oh and maybe it will also depend on the person that's giving the money. I mean, how he looks, does he/she looks suspicious, or nervous, or seems like he's hiding something. hehehehe.

Money makes many things but of course we need not be soo greedy for sake of money .
For i remember one scripture from Holy Bible
Life is more than food,and the body more than clothes.
-Luke 12:23
So why money????? why not God?????
Think is money everything when you dont have happiness . So Being with God makes us feel so comfortable.So I say I wont take that $1 Million

I'll take $1000 if someone gave it to me now. Jokes apart, I don't thik anyone os going to give anyone that kind of money unless ofcourse he expects to get back 10 times that within a fortnight. Wishful thinking, but as long as he is not a terrorist, I think I can handle that.

when someone gives money, there must be some intention behind giving it. no one gives it to another without any intention behind it. also the one who receives it should decide whether he will receive it or not.
we see almost everyday, a couple of mails of this type arrive offering a share of hidden money that came to their possession. never ever respond to such offers. most of them are from criminals.

One million is a very big amount. I think I will take it and try my best not to be in trouble because of the money. I will make plans so that I won't be in trouble due to recieving the money. I will ask the reason for giving me the money. I will accept the money even if I find that the reason is not convincing enough for me to take the money.

That will depend on the person who is willing to give it to me. If this person is a relative, I will take the money without question.
After all, it's common for relatives to help those in the family. If this person is a stranger or a not-so-close friend, then I wont take the money.
I think another factor is how the money comes to me. I dont mind to have the money as a Chinese New Year's ang bao, since that is the time that relatives give money out.

I will. I do not think people will go around giving money for free. They are not out of their mind. So, if they should be giving you free money;it could be a gimmick or if it is real, it could be for the time being and you may have to give it to your favorite charity. i do not believe it is " bad" money from an ill-intentioned person.

My friend people sometimes get offers not for $1 million but more than that and they often accept it with out considering the possible dangers that might come along with it. There are also people who are willing to be poor and live a worry free life rather than taking $1 million and have tensed moments.
